Outgrowing Communist and Capitalist Dictatorships
Book • 2000
In 'Power and Prosperity,' Mancur Olson explores how different forms of governance impact economic growth.

He contrasts autocratic regimes, where rulers have incentives to promote prosperity for their own benefit, with democratic systems, which are more stable and conducive to long-term prosperity.

Olson also discusses the challenges faced by countries transitioning from communist to capitalist economies.
