We test whether the growth experience of a sample of 21 OECD countries over the past three decades is more consistent with the augmented Solow model or the Uzawa-Lucas model, by exploiting the different non-linear restrictions implied by them as regards the relationship between factor shares and...

This paper notes that the Mankiw, Romer, and Weil formulation of the augmented Solow growth model has implications not only for the steady-state growth rates but also for how these growth rates would change if there are changes in fundamentals. The analysis supports several of Mankiw, Romer, and...

. Our results provide further support for several of Mankiw, Romer and Weil's key conclusions--investment in physical … capital, population growth, and the initial levels of output seem to matter a great deal. However, investment in human capital … has no ability to account for changes in growth rates over time. We conclude that investment in physical capital seems to …

This study provides new evidence on the relationship between finance and economic growth using an innovative dynamic panel threshold technique. The sample consists of 87 developed and developing countries. The empirical results indicate that there is a threshold effect in the finance-growth...

The expansion in the supply of energy services over the last couple of centuries has reduced the apparent importance of energy in economic growth despite energy being an essential production input. We demonstrate this by developing a simple extension of the Solow growth model, which we use to...
