An Institutional Analysis of Reforming the *State. The Case of Peru

Abstract

dc:description

According to North, the notion of path dependency implies that an exogenous institutional change will not alter the pattern of growth in developing countries, such as Peru, as dramatically as policy makers and some scholars would expect. Our study argues that permanent effects may be derived from exogenous institutional change as long as there is credible change in the governance of public organizations.
