WIRTSCHAFT UND POLITIK THE IMPACT OF ECONOMIC...

Christoph Michael Hindermann uses a statistical approach to analyze the impact of economic
freedom on state legitimacy. Based on multiple regression models  the author not only extracts
the determinants of legitimacy but also shows that rule of law is the most important area of
economic freedom for legitimacy. In addition  the results also indicate that democracies are
not necessarily more legitimate than autocracies and that wealthier countries are  ceteris
paribus  perceived as less legitimate. Due to the strong quantitative approach  this thesis
contributes not only to the political theory of liberalism and to the field of institutional
economics but also enriches the debate on how a legitimate state ought to be.
