contents CRITERIOS Y FACTORES DE CALIDAD INSTITUCIONAL: UN ESTUDIO EMPÍRICO JOSÉ ANTONIO ALONSO CARLOS GARCIMARTÍN Economía y Finanzas governance development Economic institutions institucional quality This paper provides new evidence about the determinants of institutional quality. Given the shortcomings of governance indicators, we first discuss the criteria employed to judge institutional quality. Then, we identify the factors that, according to these criteria, shape the quality of institutions. The results of this empirical research show that the main determinants of the quality of the institutions of a given country are its income per capita and its income distribution, the efficiency of its tax system and the educational level of its population. On the contrary, some of the variables identified in previous literature (location, ethno-linguistic fragmentation, the origin of the legal system or colonial origin) either do not have any impact on institutional quality or they impact indirectly through the variables previously mentioned. 2011 artículo científico 1133-455X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=96918878001 es http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=969 Revista de Economía Aplicada application/pdf Universidad de Zaragoza Revista de Economía Aplicada (España) Num.55 Vol.XIX
