Elite Political Instability and Economic Growth: An Empirical Evidence from the Baltic States

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The growth theory of new political economics defines some factors that are necessary for economic growth among which political stability. There are distinguished two types of political instability -- elite and non-elite -- in topical literature. While non-elite political instability concerns about violent coups, riots or civil wars, elite political instability is represented with "soft changes" such as government breakdowns, fragile majority or minority governments. We don't doubt the importance of general political stability for successful economic development. Nevertheless, we don't agree that elite political instability can be understood as an insuperable obstacle for it. The aim of the paper is to disprove the hypothesis that elite political stability is a necessary condition for economic growth. Equally with other papers, a number of government changes is used as a proxy of elite political instability. The disproof of the hypothesis is demonstrated on data from the Baltic states w
