- Abstract
Democratization had occurred in a long historical process and it had developed itself by having different evolutions. It had been claimed that democratization is based on some social conditions until 1959. However, in 1959, Lipset suggested that democracy is based not only on social conditions but also the condition of realization of economic development. In this context, democratization is a fact fulfilled with economic growth. Relationship between economic growth and democracy have been an important issue for many studies particularly in the last three decades. In this study, effects of economic growth on democratization are investigated by using a panel data set for 1993-2005 period for 59 countries. For his purpose some models are estimated. According to the estimating results, democratization process is positively affected from income level and growth. While democratization level negatively affected by inflation, human capital growth contributes it.
