MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: This paper examines, within the framework of a panel data model's, the relation between the commercial opening, the foreign direct investment and the growth of the productivity of the North African countries (Algeria, Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia) from 1970 to 2001. The results suggest a significant effect of the human capital, foreign investment and research-development on the productivity of North Africa, but a negative effect of the imports.
