ECONOMY, SOCIETY AND TERRITORY SEJ563

Description

Poverty, illiteracy, low life expectancy, poor environmental quality and great differences in income and human development are endemic to most of the world�s population. Hence, there is a growing demand from societies for development policies. The ethical justification for such policies becomes even more poignant when inequalities are due to corruption and unproductive rent-seeking. In this context our aim is to analyze how political and economic institutions, which are ultimately the choice of society, play a pivotal role in improving the well-being of people by building the government�s capacity to meet its stated social and economic goals.
