  • Read All About It! Understanding the Role of Media in Economic Development
    Kyklos_2004-01_UG2+UG3.book Seite 21 Mittwoch, 28. Januar 2004 9:15 09 KYKLOS, Vol. 57 – 2004 – Fasc. 1, 21–44 Read All About It! Understanding the Role of Media in Economic Development Christopher J. Coyne and Peter T. Leeson* I. INTRODUCTION The question of what factors lead to economic development has been at the center of economics for over two centuries. Adam Smith, writing in 1776, at- tempted to determine the factors that led to the wealth of nations. He concluded that low taxes, peace and a fair administration of justice would lead to eco- nomic growth (1776: xliii). Despite the straightforward prescription put forth by Smith, many countries have struggled to achieve the goal of economic pros- perity. One can find many examples – Armenia, Bulgaria, Moldova, Romania and Ukraine to name a few – where policies aimed at economic development have either not been effectively implemented or have failed. If the key to eco- nomic development is as simple as the principles outlined by Smith, then why do we see many countries struggling to achieve it? The development process involves working within the given political and economic order to adopt policies that bring about economic growth. Given that political agents are critical to the process, the development of market institu- tions that facilitate economic growth is therefore a problem in ‘public choice’. There have been many explanations for the failure of certain economies to de- velop. A lack of investment in capital, foreign financial aid (Easterly 2001: 26– 45), culture (Lal 1998) and geographic location (Gallup et al. 1998) have all been postulated as potential explanations for the failure of economies to de- velop.
