Origins of Reform Resistance and the Southern European Regime. WWWforEurope Working Paper No. 20

Theocharis Grigoriadis and Friedrich Heinemann

in WIFO Studies from WIFO

Abstract: This analysis deals with reform obstacles in general and with the particular challenges of institutional change under the conditions of Southern Europe in particular. It presents a survey on the possible drivers of reform resistance. This includes very different qualities of approaches ranging from classical economics and political-economic explanations to more innovative explanations linked to behavioural economics. This classifying approach on potential reform obstacles is novel with respect to its broadness and systematisation and offers a basis for the measurement and empirical testing.
