Abstract: | The paper reconsiders and reconciles recent empirical work on classical convergence and technological catch-up. Central hypothesis is that dimishing returns to investment cause the growth rate of a country to decline as it approaches its steady state level of capital per unit of effective labour - implying that, richer economies grow slower than poorer economies. |
