Colonial land tenure, electoral competition and public goods in India

Examines the question: do areas which were under landlord-based systems develop differently compared to areas which were under other land tenure systems. The question is answered by comparing outcomes in the two types of areas in post-colonial India. Findings show that areas with greater initial inequality tended to have lower investments in public education, roads, electricity, and other infrastructure, such as participation in local elections.
