Inequality, Efficiency and the Rule of Law
III Rodolfo DeBenedetti Lecture, Milan
28 May 2004
Speaker(s)
Luigi Zingales (University of Chicago)
A growing body of research has established the importance of rule of law as a determinant of growth, productivity, and financial development. But what determines rule of law? The Lecture argued that a critical element in ensuring rule of law is the commitment of a country´s government to respect the property rights of its own citizens. A variety of empirical findings and analytical models was used to support this claim.
