摘要

在发达国家和发展中国家,腐败仍然是可持续经济增长、良好治理、和平与稳定的主要挑战。然而,在发展中国家,尤其是非洲,饥饿是包容性经济发展面临的另一大挑战。迄今为止,还没有实证研究探讨过不同类型的腐败对饥饿的影响。本研究利用三种腐败类型(行政、立法和司法腐败动态)和 45 个非洲国家的面板数据,首次尝试研究腐败类型对饥饿的影响,为有关腐败影响的文献做出了贡献。我们使用了最新的序列线性面板动态估计方法,解决了主要回归变量的微弱时变性问题。结果显示,行政、立法和司法腐败程度越高的国家,饥饿程度越高。此外,结果表明,行政腐败对非洲饥饿问题的影响最大,其次是立法腐败。即使使用其他方法衡量关键变量(饥饿和腐败),并使用广义矩方法控制动态内生性,我们的结果仍然有效。进一步的分析提供了有力的证据,证明社会群体之间的政治权力分配减轻了腐败对饥饿的影响。

Does corruption starve Africa? The mitigating effect of political distribution of power

Corruption remains a major challenge to sustainable economic growth, good governance, peace, and stability in both developed and developing countries. However, in developing countries, and particularly in Africa, hunger is another big challenge to inclusive economic development. To date, no empirical study has examined the effects of different types of corruption on hunger. Using three types of corruption (executive, legislative, and judicial corruption dynamics) and a panel of 45 African countries, this study contributes to the literature on the effects of corruption by examining, as a first attempt, the impact of types of corruption on hunger. We address the weak time-variance of our main regressors by using the most recent sequential linear panel dynamic estimator. The results show that countries with higher levels of executive, legislative, and judicial corruption are associated with a higher level of hunger. Moreover, the results show that executive corruption is the most disastrous for hunger in Africa, followed by legislative corruption. Our results remain valid even after using alternative measures of the key variables (hunger and corruption) and after controlling for the dynamic endogeneity using the generalized method of moments. Further analysis provides strong evidence that the political distribution of power across social groups mitigates the effect of corruption on hunger.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Policy Modeling is published by Elsevier for the Society for Policy Modeling to provide a forum for analysis and debate concerning international policy issues. The journal addresses questions of critical import to the world community as a whole, and it focuses upon the economic, social, and political interdependencies between national and regional systems. This implies concern with international policies for the promotion of a better life for all human beings and, therefore, concentrates on improved methodological underpinnings for dealing with these problems.
