Accordingly, this study contributes to the debate over whether the sources of economic growth stem...

This study estimates and tests the endogeneity of the natural rate of growth using the balance-of-payments consistent rate of growth (BPCRG) instead of the actual rate of growth. Our approach is also theoretically compatible with the one proposed by Thirlwall (2001). Following this idea, we...

The purpose of this study is to examine relationship among returns to scale, returns to factors and the shape of the production possibility frontier under Cobb–Douglas production function. The study asks the following question: How can production possibility frontier be drawn (a) if returns to...

The aims of this study are i) to match possible theoretical goals with economic policy goals which are required for the development strategy and ii) to show the quantities required in order to reach those goals. This paper also assumes that the goals cannot be necessarily profit maximization,...
