摘要：

Building on Rawls's Theory of Justice, we argue that state effectiveness should be conceptualized and measured using the baseline of equal rights to life, liberties, and opportunities. This conception of state effectiveness leads to measurement along two axes of performance: a vertical axis (y axis) measuring the quality of state capacity for impartiality; and a horizontal axis (x axis) measuring the quality of states in achieving impartiality. We examine the extent of state effectiveness across all 54 countries in Africa. We find that the quality of state capacity correlates with the extent of equal treatment of persons.
