The impact of state power on economic growth rates in OECD countries

Inspired by public choice theories — in particular the work of Bernholz, Downs, Olson and Tullock — two propositions are advanced. First, the older a democracy is, the slower its growth rates should become. Second, the higher the social security spending is, the slower economic growth rates should become. Pooled regression analysis and the growth experience of 19 OECD nations between 1960 and 1985 allow for an empirical test. Unfortunately, results very much depend on a technical issue, i.e., on the inclusion or exclusion of period and country dummy variables. It is argued that inclusion of the dummies is misleading. If you accept these arguments, then the propositions linking age of democracy or social security transfers on the one hand and lower economic growth rates on the other hand are confirmed.     

协调边境管理

协调边境管理是对边境管理机构的监管活动进行组织和监督,以便在边境安全和合法合规的前提下满足合法贸易和人员流动便利化的要求（世界银行,2005年）。在边境监管中,移民署负责对人员监管,而海关则负责对货物监管。边境管理越来越注重对边境活动的国际协调,包括邻国间一站式边境口岸的建立和虚拟整合。     

Solow vs. Solow: Notes on Identification and Interpretation in the Empirics of Growth and Development

Most empirical studies of long-run growth refer to one of the two seminal contributions by Robert Solow in 1956 and 1957. His work shows that in order to estimate the relative roles of factor accumulation and technology in development, an a priori identification assumption is needed about the nature of technical change. This specific assumption differs across the two Solow papers. I show that starting with the identification assumption made by Solow in 1956, one should expect to find that differences in technology rather than differences in factor accumulation explain most if not all of the observed long-run differences in output per worker. The opposite interpretation appears to prevail in parts of the recent literature on the empirics of growth. JEL no. O4
