Economists debate whether institutions-or other factors altogether (geography, culture, or religion)-are central to development. In this volume, leading scholars in development economics view institutions from a microeconomic perspective, offering both theoretical overviews and empirical analyses spanning three continents." "After substantial introductory chapters by Pranab Bardhan and Marcel Fafchamps, two scholars who have published important work on this topic, each of the remaining chapters examines a particular set of institutions in a unique setting. These chapters treat the effects of Angola's violent conflict on that country's development; institutional accountability in Uganda; the effect of Indonesia's ethnic diversity on the distribution of public goods; the impact of trade liberalization on India's investment climate; extended family networks in Mexico; and a microeconomic perspective on land rights in Ethiopia." "The chapters demonstrate the remarkable heterogeneity of institutions, government institutions, and families-as well as the empirical and methodological ingenuity of current research into this crucial topic." "Timothy Besley is Kuwait Professor of Economics and Political Science and Director of STICERD (Suntory and Toyota International Centres for Economics and Related Disciplines) at the London School of Economics. He is the author of Principled Agents? The Political Economy of Good Government. Rajshri Jayaraman is Assistant Professor at the European School of Management and Technology, Berlin." --Jacket. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Institutional economics|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85066745|vCase studies.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99001484 650 0 Economic policy|vCase studies.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008102552 650 0 Organizational change|vCase studies.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008108708 650 7 Institutional economics.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/974297 650 7 Economic policy|xCase studies.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/902028 650 7 Organizational change|xCase studies.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1047830 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Case studies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423765 655 7 Case studies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2017026140 700 1 Besley, Timothy.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ nr88006542 700 1 Jayaraman, Rajshri.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2006029985 776 08 |iPrint version:|tInstitutional microeconomics of development.|dCambridge, Mass. : MIT Press, ©2010 |z9780262014069|w(DLC) 2009048456|w(OCoLC)474869071 830 0 CESifo seminar series.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n2002117030 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=324729|zOnline eBook.
