Democracy and Good GovernanceCurrent orthodoxy

In democracies, the median voter will demand efficient services and punish corrupt officials

Problems with this theoryVoters may not have sufficient informationVoters may not be organizedVoters may be organized ethnically, religiously,

or clientelisticallyClientelism as an early form of accountabilityPopulist opposition to elite bureaucracy

democracy but also the modern stateNon-western RoL systems collapsed after

contact with WestZakaria argument that RoL should be

sequenced before democracyCases in modern times virtually a null set

Singapore and Hong Kong as deviant examples

No constituency for RoL without democracyIslamists a possible example

But can have democracy without RoL
