"Congress is free to define 'price stability' however it wishes. If it wants a strict inflation target in all circumstances, that's its right. But legislators would be well-advised to pay close attention to the microeconomic foundations of monetary policy." ~ Alexander W. Salter

AbstractThis paper identifiespolitical property rightsandjurisdictional rivalryas two important mechanisms that drive political and economic development. After developing a general framework to explain relative performance in the 'market for governance', we argue that Western Europe during the High Middle Ages presented initial conditions conducive to the development of effective states. We extend the framework by analyzing city-state governance in Renaissance Italy, as well as public finance practices in early modern Germany. We conclude by discussing the implications of our argument for the literature on state capacity and economic development. The takeaway is that well-aligned political property rights and competition in the provision of governance services can promote the protective and productive state while forestalling the predatory state.
