摘要

巴基斯坦一直在努力寻求一种适合其独立后发展的政治制度；然而，民主与独裁之间的反复斗争减缓了巴基斯坦的经济增长。我使用合成控制方法量化了 1999 年至 2008 年军事独裁对巴基斯坦经济的影响。我发现，虽然军事独裁期间的年人均 GDP 增长率有所增长，但比合成巴基斯坦的年人均 GDP 增长率低四倍。我的结论是，军方并没有帮助巴基斯坦摆脱经济困境。军事独裁导致的军费增加和恐怖主义盛行可能阻碍了巴基斯坦的经济增长。

Can the military be a better manager of the economy?

Pakistan has struggled for a political system suitable for its postindependence development; however, repeated struggles between democracy and dictatorship have slowed Pakistan's economic growth. I quantified the impact of military dictatorship on Pakistan's economy from 1999 to 2008 using synthetic control methods. I found that while the average annual GDP per capita growth grew during the military dictatorship, it was four times lower than synthetic Pakistan's. I conclude that the military did not help Pakistan with its economic malaise. The increase in military expenditure and the prevalence of terrorism due to the military dictatorship may have hindered Pakistan's economic growth.
