The long-run impact of foreign aid in 36 African countries: Insights from multivariate time series analysis
Juselius, Katarina; Framroze Møller, Niels; Tarp, Finn - 2011
Studies of aid effectiveness abound in the literature, often with opposing conclusions. Since most time-series studies use data from the exact same publicly available data bases, our claim here is that such differences in results must be due to the use of different econometric models and...
