Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Abstract: This paper examines the relative impacts of economic growth and good governance on human development (HD) performance in the sub-national states of India from the 1980s to the early 2000s to test whether the strong and positive impact good governance has had on HD in the Indian state of Kerala is anomalous or typical. The paper begins with a bounded and theoretically developed conceptualization of good governance to cover the three core dimensions of leadership priorities, state capacity, and policy implementation. Measures of these three core dimensions taken from recent field study in India are then compiled into a good governance index suited to the specific context of federal India�s subnational states over the last three decades. Employing cross-sectional regression analysis and incorporating checks for robustness, we find that in almost every case good governance explains more of human development outcomes (in education, health, and longevity) than does economic growth, per capita investment, or per capita incomes.
