Institutions, development, and economic growth

Sinopse

"The determinants of economic growth and development are hotly debated among economists. Financial crises and failed transition experiments have highlighted the fact that functioning institutions are fundamental to the goal of achieving economic growth. The growth literature has seen an abundance of empirical studies on the influence of institutions and the mechanisms by which institutions affect development. This CESifo volumes provides a systematic overview of the current scholarship on the impact of institutions on growth. The contributors, all economists, consider institutions and growth."--BOOK JACKET
