Strong law and order key to economic growth in democracies
The article looks at how democracy, law and order, and economic growth are connected. It examines how changes in democracy levels from the 1970s to 1990s affect economic growth. The researchers suggest that in countries with strong law and order, democracy can boost economic growth. But in countries with weak law and order, democracy might harm growth. They also find that if democracy happens in a country with poor law and order, it can lead to more corruption and a weaker economy. The study presents some evidence to support these ideas, but the results are not always consistent.
