本文的核心思想是,把无序与独裁分别放在了两条坐标轴上,研究了他们之间的变动关系,并分析讨论了有效制度的结构,制度比较、制度变迁与经济增长等等的关系。
原文摘要:In recent years, comparative economics experienced a revival, with a new focus on comparing capitalist economies. The theme of the new research is that institutions exert a profound influence on economic development. We argue that, to understand capitalist institutions, one needs to understand the basic tradeoff between the costs of disorder and those of dictatorship. We then apply this logic to study the structure of efficient institutions, the consequences of colonial transplantation, and the politics of institutional choice.
