本文讨论了最近关于国家在经济发展中的作用的文献。它的结论是，政府激励制定健全的政策是经济成功的关键。它还讨论了经济和政治自由化事件发生后的证据，询问政治自由化是否加强了政府制定合理经济政策的激励。答案是混合的。事实上，大多数经济自由化都是在政治自由化之前发生的。但做得更好的国家是那些首先设法开放经济，然后才开放政治制度的国家。
This paper discusses the recent literature on the role of the state in economic development. It concludes that government incentives to enact sound policies are key to economic success. It also discusses the evidence on what happens after episodes of economic and political liberalizations, asking whether political liberalizations strengthen government incentives to enact sound economic policies. The answer is mixed. Most episodes of economic liberalizations are indeed preceded by political liberalizations. But the countries that have done better are those that have managed to open up the economy first, and only later have liberalized their political system.
