Comovement and catch-up in productivity across sectors : evidence from the OECD

Cornwell, Christopher Mark; Wächter, Jens-Uwe - 1999

A method for analyzing productivity convergence based on frontier production functions is proposed. It is examined … whether departures from the frontier - country-level inefficiencies - exhibit long-run relationships and convergence. The … studies have found not to display convergence, shows signs of catch-up. …

Distance to the Technological Frontier and Economic Development

Özak, Ömer - Southern Methodist University, Department of Economics - 2012

This research proposes that the geographical distance from the location of the pre-industrial technological frontier has a non-monotonic and persistent effect on development. While remoteness from this frontier diminished imitation, it fostered the emergence of a culture conducive to innovation...

Railroads and growth in Prussia : conference paper

Hornung, Erik - 2014

We study the effect of railroad access on urban population growth. Using GIS techniques, we match triennial population data for roughly 1,000 cities in nineteenth-century Prussia to georeferenced maps of the German railroad network. We find positive short- and long-term effects of having a...

Dynamic linkage between renewable and conventional energy use, environmental quality and economic growth: Evidence from Emerging Market and Developing Economies

Sarkodie, Samuel Asumadu - In: Energy Reports 6 (2020), pp. 965-973

The role of renewable and fossil fuel energy consumption on environmental sustainability remains inconclusive due to varied economic and technological structure. This study provides new insight by assessing the nexus between the utilization of two energy categories - renewable and conventional,...

Economic Growth and Carbon Emissions : The Road to ‘Hothouse Earth’ is Paved with Good Intentions

Storm, Servaas - 2018

All IPCC (2018) pathways to restrict future global warming to 1.5°C (and well below an already dangerous 2°C) involve radical cuts in global carbon emissions. Such de-carbonization, while being technically feasible, may impose a ‘limit' or ‘planetary boundary' to growth, depending on...
