Abstract
⺠We test the relation between income and democracy during the postwar period. ⺠Primary measures of democracy-as Freedom House and Polity-are censored. ⺠We employ dynamic panel estimation methods that explicitly allow for censoring. ⺠Income-democracy relationship is robust to the inclusion of country fixed effects.
