"... This paper presents evidence that “social capital ” matters for measurable economic performance, using indicators of trust and civic norms from the World Values Surveys for a sample of 29 market economies.

Finite state Markov-chain approximations to univariate and vector autoregressions
- Economics Letters
, 1986
"... The paper develops a procedure for finding a discrete-valued Markov chain whose sample paths approximate well those of a vector autoregression. The procedure has applications in those areas of economics, finance, and econometrics where approximate solutions to integral equations are required. 1. ..."
