Traditionally, political scientists disregard details of economic conditions, while economists may not take into consideration a systematic explanation of political regimes. The growing interest in the interplay of political and economic systems, spurred by the political democratization and economic liberalization evident in many countries over the last twenty years, merits this new perspective.The book examines the political determinants of economic growth, and, specifically, the controversial question of the relationship between democracy and quality of life. Feng systematically studies three variables of a political system--political freedom, political stability, and policy certainty--and relates them to economic development. He examines the political factors that may affect patterns of growth directly or indirectly.Combining theory and country-specific case studies, Democracy, Governance, and Economic Performance demonstrates that political institutions and conditions do matter in economic growth. After establishing a theoretical foundation, Feng tests it by examining the direct effects of the three key political variables on economic growth and the indirect effects of democracy in terms of other variables (political instability, inflation, investment, education, income distribution, property rights, and population growth). He concludes by considering the policy implications of these results. 001385926 588__ $$aOCLC-licensed vendor bibliographic record. 001385926 650_0 $$aDemocracy$$xEconomic aspects. 001385926 650_0 $$aEconomic development$$xPolitical aspects. 001385926 650_0 $$aPolitical science$$xEconomic aspects. 001385926 653__ $$aECONOMICS/Political Economy 001385926 655_0 $$aElectronic books 001385926 852__ $$bebk 001385926 85640 $$3MIT Press$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://doi.org/10.7551/mitpress/2329.001.0001?locatt=mode:legacy$$zOnline Access through The MIT Press Direct 001385926 85642 $$3OCLC metadata license agreement$$uhttp://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf 001385926 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1385926$$pGLOBAL_SET 001385926 980__ $$aBIB 001385926 980__ $$aEBOOK 001385926 982__ $$aEbook 001385926 983__ $$aOnline
