Endnotes
(1) Abramovitz (1986) points out different studies like Angus
Maddison's study concerning historical time series of the levels of
growth of labor productivity covering several industrialized countries
from 1970 to 1979.
(2) Most of the research in this field concentrates on how
institutions and systems were build to produce 'intensive
learning' which facilitates development in newly industrialized
countries, not in developing or transition countries.
(3) This conclusion corresponds to the idea of 'technological
congruence' introduced by Abramovitz (1986) explained in item 2.1.
