privatization and economic growth; a cross country study
نویسندگان
چکیده
in this paper, we intend to investigate the impact of privatization on economic growth in developing and transition economies. previous studies that have attempted to measure this relationship have conflicting results, some indicating a positive impact of privatization on growth, while others indicate a negative relationship. our study uses recent world bank data on privatization for 117 countries over the time period 1988-2003. we explore the impact of privatization on growth by estimating an empirical growth model using two-stage least squares and ordinary least squares estimations in the context of three time frames. our results indicate that privatization is neutral with regard to economic growth, while a competitive regulatory environment has a positive impact on growth. jel: 01. 04

This paper examines the effect of inflation on real growth in a Solow growth model using data from a cross section of countries over a 30-year period. The advantage of using a theoretical model is that it reduces the risk that the results will reflect data-mining. The results suggest that the 5 percentage point reduction in inflation from the 1970s to the 1980s would increase the growth rate of...
