CAPTURING STATESTRENGTH: EXPERIMENTAL AND ECONOMETRIC APPROACHES

CAPTURING STATESTRENGTH: EXPERIMENTAL AND ECONOMETRIC APPROACHES

While almost all definitions of the state and state capacity (or stateness) derive at their core from a Weberian emphasis on the characteristics of institutions, the dominant measures of this concept rely instead on subjective, perceptions-based indicators.
