Growing gap between rich and poor countries : a proposed explanation.

SHEEHEY, Edmund J.

Growing gap between rich and poor countries : a proposed explanation. - 1996

Explains the reported pattern of increasing divergence of per capita income levels between high and low income countries, and among how-income countries. The evidence presented implies that the growing gap in standards of living is due more to differences between population and labour force growth rates than to slower growth of output per worker in low income countries.
