Читать книгу Sustainable Futures - Raphael Kaplinsky - Страница 18

Broadly speaking, economic growth arises from four sets of factors. The first is more and increasingly skilled labour; the second is more physical investment (‘capital’); the third is increased productivity as a result of improvements in equipment and in the organization of production; and the fourth is improvements in the infrastructure supporting the use of these inputs. I will predominantly focus on the first three of these growth-drivers in this chapter, but will revisit the role played by infrastructure in post-war growth in Chapter 5.
