Technological diffusion implies a form of 'conditional convergence' as lagging countries catch up with technological leaders. We find strong evidence of technological diffusion but not full convergence; differences in total factor productivity (TFP) persist even in the long run due to differences...

This paper compares two alternative growth paths, assessing the effects on productivity of specialisation in natural … exports either of natural resources or of technological products, and compare their role in productivity growth by GMM … estimation of a conditional convergence model. In general, reliance on natural resource exports slows growth, but we find that …
