虽然民粹主义统治在发展中国家变得越来越普遍，但我们对其影响的了解在很大程度上仍然是轶事和相互矛盾的。在本文中，我们对民粹主义统治的后果进行了迄今为止最全面的大n跨国测试。利用19个拉美国家的数据，我们发现民粹主义的影响大多是负面的：(1)民粹主义政权倾向于削弱对行政权力的制度和法律约束；(2)民粹主义政府或民粹主义竞选者的参与率并不高；(3)民粹主义统治，即使在左翼民粹主义者的统治下，与非民粹主义民主统治相比，与更多的再分配无关。我们进行工具变量估计和准实验分析，以解决民粹主义的潜在内生性。
While populist rule has become increasingly prevalent in the developing world, much of our knowledge about its implications remains anecdotal and contradictory. In this article, we conduct the most comprehensive large-N cross-national test of the consequences of populist rule to date. Using data on 19 Latin American states, we find that populism’s implications are mostly negative: (1) populist regimes tend to erode institutional and legal constraints on executive authority; (2) participation rates are not higher under populist governments or for populist campaigners; and (3) populist rule, even under left-wing populists, is not associated with more redistribution than non-populist democratic rule. We perform instrumental variable estimations and a quasi-experimental analysis to address the potential endogeneity of populism.
