  1. 1. Rise of the Rwandan economy post-genocide: will this lead to catch-up growth?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Författare :Romeo Ramaekers; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Economic growth; Sub-Saharan Africa; Structural Transformation; Services; Catch-up growth; Human Capital; Information and Communication Technology; Labour Productivity; Rwanda.; Business and Economics;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract: This thesis examines the concept of sustainable economic growth in post-genocide Rwanda, focusing on its structural transformation from the agricultural sector towards the service sector. This exploration essentially regards the implications for catch-up growth in light of the new notion of premature deindustrialisation. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Growth and Resilience Theory: A new way of conceptualising convergence dynamics.

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Författare :Anthony Smythe; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Economic Development; Growth; Shrinking; Resilience; Convergence; Divergence; Catch-up; Business and Economics;

    Sammanfattning : Recent studies have highlighted how building resilience to ‘shrinking’ episodes, as opposed to increasing growth rates, appears to be the missing piece of the puzzle when it comes to between-country income convergence. All economies seem to be able to grow, but few countries have been able to drastically improve their shrinking patterns, which has underpinned the divergence often argued in literature. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Are Ecuador’s social capabilities progressing and developing resilience to shrinking? A regional comparative study, 1970-2020

    Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Författare :Rebeca Anahí Sánchez Enríquez; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Shrinking; resilience; catch-up; social capability; social capabilities; Ecuador; Latin America; South America; economic development; Business and Economics;

    Sammanfattning : New research suggests that the key to explaining the development gap might be resilience to shrinking instead of increasing growth rates. Latin America is considered an improving region from the growth rate point of view in development, but not so much from the shrinking perspective. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Countergradient variation and compensatory growth in Moor frog (Rana arvalis) along a replicated latitudinal gradient

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Sohini Mallick; [2022]
    Nyckelord :moor frog; countergradient variation; compensatory growth; latitudinal gradient;

    Sammanfattning : For evolution to occur over time, it is necessary for animals and plants to show phenotypic variation. If the individuals within populations of a species do not show observable differences among themselves, there will be a lack of driving force for natural selection to act on and decide which characteristic gets inherited from one generation to the next.

  5. 5. Shaky Growth: Chile's earthquake and its effect on GDP. Did the 2010 earthquake change Chile's growth path? Evidence of a synthetic control study

    D-uppsats, Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Författare :Santiago Benguria; [2022]
    Nyckelord :synthetic control method; quasi-experimental study; earthquake; Chile; natural disasters;

    Sammanfattning : This quasi-experimental study analyses the effects of the 2010 Chile earthquake and finds an effect GDP per capita in the years following the event, by using the synthetic control method. After the shock, the country experienced an increase of 7% on GDP per capita on average, an effect which is significant yet only transitory as Chile and its counterfactual catch up again 5 years after the event.
