Do institutions alleviate poverty? New Empirical Evidence

Juan Cuestas and Maurizio Intartaglia

Economics Bulletin, 2016, vol. 36, issue 1, 145-154

Abstract: This paper analyses whether institutional quality affects poverty, and unlike previous papers, we use a larger dataset and panel estimations. Whereas cross-section regressions disclose a relationship between the quality of institutions and poverty alleviation, this linkage vanishes in panel regression analysis.
