Understanding the Resource Impact Using Matching
Aliyev, Ilkin - 2011
growth rates as it has been done in the literature. Assuming correlation between observables and unobservables, the matching … based on observables may control for unobservables as well. If this assumption is satisfied, matching allows us to control …We investigate the resource impact on economic growth using matching. Using a nonparametric minimum-distance matching …

Population and economic growth in Mexico : regime dynamics and causality
Cayssials, Gaston; Germán-Soto, Vicente; Segarra, Verónica - In: Latin American economic review : LAER ; official … 32 (2023), pp. 1-25
The dynamic relationship between population and economic growth has not reached a consensus on whether it is positive, negative, or neutral. Using annual panel data for the 32 Mexican states over the period 1940-2020, this paper examines the joint dynamics of population growth and GDP per...
