SUMMARY:Introduction to Comparative Democracy: Does Democracy Matter?
DESCRIPTION:Does democracy matter? In this session (part of a Master-level 
 seminar on comparative democracy) we will take an x-centered perspective a
 nd study the consequences of democracy. Do democracies lead to better econ
 omic outcomes? Do they lead to better societies? Are people in democracies
  happier? What are the effects on inequality? We will read and discuss a r
 eview published in the Annual Review of Political Science and a short over
 view chapter\, as well as papers based on your own literature review.\n\nR
 equired readings:\nGerring\, John\, Carl Henrik Knutsen\, and Jonas Berge.
