Devarajan, Shantayanan; Johnson, Simon
- Abstract
The article offers information on two comments on indicators in general and the World Governance Indicators in particular by Shantayanan Devarajan and Simon Johnson. Devarajan presents an examination on how well the World Governance Indicators WGI and other indicators perform in two specific instances, such as the allocation of resources and the possible use of WGI to help identify the nature of the governance problem in a country. Johnson argues that governance measures are not useful due because many countries are still growing despite weak governance.
