内容説明

Does democracy mean a slowdown of economic growth and an improvement in welfare in the Third World? Or can an authoritarian regime perform better? This book examines the theoretical debate as a starting point for in-depth case studies of four countries: India, China, Taiwan and Costa Rica. The case-studies are used as a basis for a number of new, more nuanced conclusions about the circumstances under which a specific form of regime has certain consequences for economic development. The implications of these results for other Third World countries, democratic and authoritarian, are addressed in the final chapter.
