Introduction This chapter is concerned with the estimation of real GDP per head. Today, the United Nations, World Bank and several other international organisations publish estimates of GDP per head for most of the world’s economies, ranking them in wealth and identifying the most advanced and least developed among them.

The Uncertain Trend in U.S. GDP [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 1997 Abstract Several recent papers conclude that GDP is trend stationary, implying that all shocks are transitory. We re-examine the evidence in light of test size distortion due to data-based lag selection and departures from the maintained hypothesis of temporal homogeneity, and find both effects trigger false rejections of the unit root hypothesis ...

Abstract This note explores clustering in cross country GDP per capita using recently developed model based clustering methods for panel data. Previous research characterizing the components of the overall distribution of output either use ad hoc methods, or methods which ignore/subvert the panel nature of the data.

Probably few topics in applied economics are given more attention in the media and in public debate than the growth of ‘national income’, or two related concepts, namely gross national product (GNP) and gross domestic product (GDP). All three concepts are approximate measures of how much income a country produces each year.

GDP is the most important and widely studied macroeconomic variable. It indicates the state of an economy and is used as a measure of the economic strength of a country. Due to its comprehensive nature, calculating GDP takes a great deal of work and is often revised over time.

Interest in convergence, that is to say whether poor countries or regions tend to grow faster than rich ones, is relatively recent. The underlying rationale of convergence however is not new, and in closed economies can be easily traced to the premise of diminishing returns to capital, whereas in open economies this premise is reinforced by the ...

, 2012 Should raising the growth rate of GDP per capita be a policy goal of governments in general, and of the British government in particular? Many people would say no, for the following reasons: 1) GDP is hopelessly flawed as a measure of welfare; 2) Growing GDP is pointless since most people don’t benefit; 3) Raising GDP per capita is pointless as it ...

As a summary measure of well-being and a guide to policy, happiness has many more merits than GDP. First, happiness is more comprehensive. Whereas GDP is confined to the economic side of life, focusing on output and business firms, happiness centers on people’s feelings about their lives as a whole and their many everyday concerns. Also, happiness is a

Despite all theoretically and empirically motivated criticism of GDP as a social welfare and progress indicator, its role in economics, public policy, politics and society continues to be influential. To resolve this paradox, one has to recognize that many economists accept the criticism of the GDP indicator but deny its relevance. This paper evaluates
