我们利用前现代战争中伤亡人数的差异来估计财政能力对经济表现的影响。在过去，各国打了不同数量的外部冲突，时间长短和规模各不相同。为了提高收入以发动战争，各国进行了财政创新，这些创新持续存在，并有助于塑造当前的财政制度。经济历史学家声称，更大的财政能力是历史冲突带来的关键长期制度变革。我们使用在前现代战争中持续的人员伤亡来衡量当前的财政制度，估计财政能力对人均GDP的重大影响。结果对广泛的质量标准、对照品和子样品具有耐用性。
We exploit differences in casualties sustained in pre-modern wars to estimate the impact of fiscal capacity on economic performance. In the past, states fought different amounts of external conflicts, of various lengths and magnitudes. To raise the revenues to wage wars, states made fiscal innovations, which persisted and helped to shape current fiscal institutions. Economic historians claim that greater fiscal capacity was the key long-run institutional change brought about by historical conflicts. Using casualties sustained in pre-modern wars to instrument for current fiscal institutions, we estimate substantial impacts of fiscal capacity on GDP per worker. The results are robust to a broad range of specifications, controls, and sub-samples.
