Democracy Does Cause Growth
Acemoglu, Daron - 2014
We provide evidence that democracy has a significant and robust positive effect on GDP. Our empirical strategy relies on a dichotomous measure of democracy coded from several sources to reduce measurement error and controls for country fixed effects and the rich dynamics of GDP, which otherwise...

Growth and Convergence in the Asia-Pacific Region : On the Role of Openness, Trade and Migration
Taylor, Alan M. - 1995
This paper examines the relationship between openness, trade, and migration in the Asia-Pacific region during the post-1970 period. Conventional reduced-form empirical-growth specifications are augmented by an appeal to structural modelling, an extension that reveals a rich set of interactions...
