The Relationship

This article examines the nexus between democracy and economic growth while taking into account the role of political stability, using dynamic panel data model estimated by means of the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) over the period 1998 to 2011 for 17 Middle East and North Africa (MENA) countries. Our empirical results showed that there is a bidirectional causal relationship between democracy and economic growth. Moreover, it was found that the effect of democracy on economic growth depends on the political stability. The results also indicated that there is important complementarity between political stability and democracy. In fact, political stability is a key determinant variable of economic growth. Eventually, democracy and political stability, taken together, have a positive and statistically significant effect on economic growth. This finding suggests that, if accompanied by a stable political system, democracy can contribute to the economic growth of countries. Thus, the MENA governments should use policies to promote political stability in the region.

To explore the impact of urbanization and economic growth on the development of circulation industry, this paper uses GMM method to estimate dynamic panel data model, based on panel data at provincial-level from 2001 to 2010 in China, after testing the endogeneity of urbanization and economic growth. The findings indicate that regional economic development, labor input and fixed investment has significant positive effect on output of circulation, while lagged output of circulation and level of urbanization has no significant effect on it.
