ABSTRACT:

It has been suggested that economic openness and political openness (democracy) complement and support each other. An analysis of this possible connection suggested that there were connections in some time periods, and that economic openness appeared to be more important as precursor to political openness than the reverse.

Presented at the 15th International Conference, Istanbul, Turkey, May 2005.
