Government Effectiveness and Development: South Asian Perspective
Open accessAbstract
This paper examines the impact of government effectiveness on the socio-economic development of eight South Asian countries by employing balanced panel data from 1999 to 2018. Random effects, ordinary regression, general trends are used to understand the impact of government performances. The empirical study confirms the insignificant effect of government effectiveness on the Human Development Index (HDI) as a measurement of socio-economic development. Conversely, good governance as a whole has a positive impact on HDI as well as per capita GDP growth rate. The study also indicates a puzzle of how a country or region having poor governance performs better in different socio-economic indicators.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
