Résumé : |
In recent decades, one of the most significant issues concerned and interested scholars,
communities, organisations, and nations are democracy, political stability and EG, which mainly appear in some countries and nearly do not exist in others. Therefore, this study investigates the impact of democracy and political stability on EG in 15 MENA countries using panel data from 1983 to 2019 while addressing conceptual and empirical issues. The study employs a fixed effect estimation using V-Dem and WGI datasets to measure democracy and political stability, including missing data and robusteness analysis. In addition, performing a comparative study between MENA countries in terms of religion, oil production and rich-poor countries classification to analyse findings and contribute to identifying what regressors should be included to determine economic growth in this region. The empirical study reveals three main significant results. First, democracy hinders economic growth in the region through the participatory democracy index, while the deliberative and egalitarian democracy indices are insignificant in the model. Second, political stability is a catalyst for EG, as political instability as a proxy reveals a negative impact. Third, this research points out that a democratic regime based on elections cripples growth in the chief executive selection process. On the other hand, the comparative study shows that religion and oil production are crucial determinants of the region's EG. Countries with an Islamic regime and high oil production rank at the top of the list in all dimensions. This study contributes to the discipline of the impact of political factors on EG analysis by encouraging researchers to take both theoretical and empirical issues into account to prevent the possibility of inaccurate findings and conclusions. Moreover, it contributes to the discipline of policy implications to provide a deeper understanding of how these political factors impact economic growth. |
