We examine the relationship between fiscal deficits and per-capita income growth in a panel of 28 European countries, allowing for perceived risks, in terms of fiscal sustainability, associated with additional government spending. Such risks are proxied by the conditional variability of...

This paper contributes to the crime literature by exploring how the crime-uncertainty interaction impacts on economic growth. Using a panel of 25 countries over the period 1991-2007, we find evidence suggesting that increased crime has an asymmetric effect on growth depending on the future...

We examine the relationship between crime and per-capita output growth in a panel of 26 countries for 1995-2009, focusing on the various channels through which crime can constrain growth and exploring the extent to which these channels are influenced by economic conditions. A simple structural...
