In search of growth: Neoliberal and institutional models for economic growth in an age of globalization
by Nieman, Mark David, M.A., IOWA STATE UNIVERSITY, 2008, 69 pages; 1454614

Abstract:

The following study is an examination of the effects of globalization, regime type and macroeconomic policy on economic growth. 90 countries are examined between the years 1975-2003. While there are issues with the use of the proxy variable, the general effects can be explored. These effects are found to differ between high-income and low-income countries. The analysis finds that low-income countries should focus on improving inefficient distribution of services. High-income countries are able to choose from a range macroeconomic policies and are not forced to converge around any one policy.
