How Economies Grow

Growth is a priority for all economies. For the many high-income countries that are struggling to distance themselves from the Great Recession, reviving growth has never seemed more urgent. Likewise, developing and emerging market economies are eager to accelerate or maintain their growth rates so as to satisfy popular demands for a more rapid improvement in living standards and in order to reduce poverty. This monograph presents the views of four growth economists who participated in the Frontier Issues in Economic Growth Symposium on February 10, 2014.
