INDEPENDENT JUDICIARY IN AN
ECONOMY AND HOW ARE LAW AND
ORDER CONDITIONS RELATED TO
ECONOMIC GROWTH OF A COUNTRY?
In a country, where the judiciary is not free from external pressures, there is injustice and
violation of the rights of common people. This type of situation is likely to start a crisis as
nobody is able to live a peaceful life. The crisis in the country causes instability. Instability will
cause adverse effects to the economy in terms of deterring investment (foreign direct investment)
[[deterring means restrained investment/discouraged or low]]. Instability and riots also damages
infra structure and cripples public services as well. The lawlessness also means people can't go to
work and the police and judiciary systems are in a crisis, meaning factors of production are
underutilized. Investment shies away from economies and countries that do not have an independent
judiciary. Thus the economy will loose out on investment and its production or GDP will fall (the
economy will be producing inside its Production Possibility Boundary which means it’s not
using all its resources fully and efficiently as possible), not to mention all the social
consequences. Thus independent judiciary is very important for a stable economy of a country.
