Elite Political Instability and Economic Growth: An Empirical Evidence from the Baltic States
Original language description
Political instability is a traditional theme of the new political economics growth theory. The thematic literatures usually distinguish two kinds of political instability: non-elite political instability (violent coups, riots, revolutions, civil wars) and elite political instability (cabinet changes, government crises, instability because of minority governments). Our literature review shows that both non-elite and elite political instability is often argued to be a serious obstacle for economic development. While we don't question the importance of general political stability, we don't agree that elite political instability is an insuperable obstacle for prosperity. To cast a doubt on the general validity of the hypothesis that elite political stability is a necessary condition for economic growth is the main aim of this paper.
