Chapter 11 in Institutions Always “Mattered”, 2015, pp 148-157 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract That the rule-of-law (ROL) is one of the important institutional elements in promoting economic growth is widely agreed, but defining ROL concisely leads to many variations and disagreements. It is beyond our scope to attempt to resolve these differences, but for clarity we propose to set out one such definition from the World Justice Project which appears most useful as a framework relevant to the central thesis of our book concerning the early existence of “good” institutions favourable to commerce and social harmony in Ragusa.1
