Which Institutions Matter Most for Growth
Bhattacharyya, Sambit - 2006
In this paper we revisit the debate over the relative contribution of different types of institutions in economic growth. We find that the existing study (Acemoglu and Johnson 2005) linking property rights institutions and contracting institutions to long-run growth suffers from identification...

Do All Countries Follow the Same Growth Process?
Davis, Lewis; Owen, Ann L.; Videras, Julio - 2008

In this paper we argue the case for greater exploitation of synergies between research on specific institutions based on micro-data and the big questions posed by the institutions and growth literature. To date, the macroeconomic literature on institutions and growth has largely relied on...

Foreign Aid, Institutional Quality, and Growth
Young, Andrew T. - 2014
Using a panel of up to 116 countries from 1970-2010 we estimate the effects of foreign aid flows on a variety of measures of institutional quality. We find that aid flows are associated with the deterioration of both political and economic institutions. Regarding the latter, aid flows are...
