If democracies favor economic growth, how do you explain the fact that China, a totalitarian regime, boasts the fastest growing economy in the last 30 years?

22 Measures of Political Risk: Perception vs. Objective Measures
How to actually measure political risk has led to a significant debate. One side suggests that political risk is based on perception and that the best measures can be found through surveys of international executives on their perceptions. However, critics argue that perception can be deceiving and misleading. They point out that perception-based rankings in the 1990s failed to provide warning of political changes in Indonesia, Malaysia, South Korea, and Thailand. Critics advocate objective measures of political risk that take into account a country’s underlying political and regulatory structures.
