This research argues that variations in the interplay between cultural assimilation and cultural diffusion have played a significant role in giving rise to differential patterns of economic development across the globe. Societies that were geographically less vulnerable to cultural diffusion,...

This research advances the hypothesis that reversal of fortunes in the process of economic development can be traced to the effect of natural land productivity on the desirable level of cooperation in the agricultural sector. In early stages of development, unfavorable land endowment enhanced...

This paper examines how relative factor endowments and population growth rates affect growth rates in less developed countries. To answer these questions an extension of the Uzawa-Lucas endogenous growth model is used. The paper proves the existence and uniqueness and of the modified model and...
