Review of Urban & Regional Development Studies, 1994, vol. 6, issue 1, 42-57

Abstract: Several cross†countries regression analyses have revealed that exports positively contribute to economic growth in less developed countries, implying that apart from the increases in the stocks of labor and capital, growth can also be stimulated by reallocating resources from the less efficient non†export sector to the more productive export sector. This paper re†specifies the relation between exports and economic growth for non†urban goods exporting African countries. The impact of exports on the growth rate of national income is analyzed along with that of the growth of population in the urban region.
