“南方”的国家，虽然多样，但在政治意义上往往是不发达的：既没有权威性和有效性，也没有合法性和对公民负责。援助国的传统反应是制度转移：试图使南方各州的制度结构与北方政体更加紧密地结合起来。这可能不是最好的方法。南方大部分地区的政治不发达主要是由于南方国家的创建方式以及通过与北方富裕国家的经济和政治互动形成的政治权威。政治不发达是（经济）发展不平衡的结果。更好地理解这些过程的性质可以导致更适当的政策。历史是不能逆转的。但是，可以更多地关注北方国家目前帮助维持南方政治不发达的方式，特别是通过使南方国家精英能够过于独立于本国公民的条件永久化。
The states of the ‘South’, although diverse, tend to be underdeveloped in the political sense: neither authoritative and effective nor legitimate and accountable to citizens. The conventional response of aid donors is institutional transfer : trying to align the institutional configurations of Southern states even more closely with those of Northern polities. This may not be the best approach. The political underdevelopment of much of the South largely results from the ways in which Southern states have been created and political authority shaped through economic and political interactions with the wealthier countries of the North. Political underdevelopment is an outcome of uneven (economic) development. A better appreciation of the nature of these processes could lead to more appropriate policy. History cannot be reversed. But more attention could be paid to the ways in which Northern states currently help sustain political underdevelopment in the South, notably by perpetuating the conditions under which state elites in the South can remain too independent of their own citizens.
