Institutional Hysteresis and the Performance of the British Economy after 1914

Mark Setterfield

Chapter 8 in Rapid Growth and Relative Decline, 1997, pp 144-161 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Chapter 5 stressed that in a model of institutional hysteresis, institutions are best regarded as evolutionary, path dependent phenomena which may not be efficient in the sense of being functional to the growth dynamics of a capitalist economy. It was shown that inefficiency may arise due to either the persistence or creation of inefficient institutions over time.
