| Abstract | Over the past decade or so there has been a revival of interest in the topic of economic growth, which has been marked by new approaches (endogenous growth theory) and a great emphasis on empirical analysis. A major focus of this empirical research has been to quantify the impact of factors such as human capital, economic policies and institutions in explaining intercountry differences in economic growth. Another important focus has been on the issue of convergence, that is, whether there has been a tendency for real per capita income differences between rich and poor countries to narrow significantly over the long run. |
