Modernising public administration and economic growth

چکیده
The links between public administration modernisation, efficiency of public spending, governance and growth are examined for a sample of 38 developed countries (the OECD plus EU countries). Efficiency and governance are shown to be correlated. Also, different measures of governance are significantly correlated to labour productivity. Results suggest that some governance features are more important for growth, namely, the law and order (including judicial system and control of corruption) and regulation quality.
