48 Growth theory is about the LONG RUN. 50, 100, 1000 years! Business cycles is about the SHORT RUN. 5 years. Our main question is then: what determines the growth rate of different economies?

49 A useful approximation: log (1 + g) ~=g if g is close to 0 Define: gt is the growth rate of GDP from t to t + 1 Yt+1 = (1 + gt)yt log Yt+1 -log Yt =log(1+gt)~=gt Example: Suppose g is constant: Using the growth definition we obtain Y1 = (1 + g) Y0 Y2 = (1 + g) Y1 = (1 + g)2 Y0 Log Yt=tg+logY0 Yt = (1 + g)t Y0

51 Determinants of Growth Is there some action a government of India could take that would lead the Indian economy to grow like Indonesia's or Egypt's? If so, what exactly? If not, what is it about the nature of India that makes it so? The consequences for human welfare involved in questions like these are simply staggering: Once one starts to think about them, it is hard to think of anything else. R.E. Lucas, Jr. (1988), On the Mechanics of Economic Development, Journal of Monetary Economics citations on Google Scholar!

52 Determinants of Growth Physical Capital: Machines, Buildings, Infrastructure. Human Resources: Labor supply, education, motivation, human capital. Technology: Science, engineering, management technique Natural Resources: Land, oil, minerals, quality of the enviroment. Institutions: Property rights, legal system, patent and copyright law. Culture: Social capital, entepreneurial energy, the protestant work ethic and the spirit of capitalism (Max Weber)
