On scale effects: further evidence

Applied Economics Letters, 2002, vol. 9, issue 4, 245-249

Abstract: One of the main issues associated with recent R&D-based growth models is their prediction concerning 'scale effects'. That is, these models ask the question as to whether economic growth is a function of the level or the growth rate of human capital at steady state. This note presents some cross-country and historical time series evidence that supports scale effects in the early stages of development and non scale effects in the long-run.
