“…Předchozí empirické studie převážně nacházejí negativní vztah mezi velikostí veřejného sektoru a ekonomickým růstem (např. Marlow, 1988;Devarajan a kol., 1996;Fölster a Henrekson, 2001). Jako další proměnnou jsem zařadil otevřenost ekonomiky jako podíl součtu exportu a importu na HDP (Openness).…”

Impact of Mobile Communications on Economic GrowthIn this paper, I empirically examine the relationship between telecommunications and economic growth. I use data for developing and developed countries for 2000-2016. My conclusion is that mobile penetration has a positive and significant impact on economic growth, where a onepercent increase in mobile penetration results in an increase in economic growth of 1.0-2.6 percent. Regulatory institutions have a positive and significant impact on penetration in developing countries; in developed countries, the impact of regulatory institutions is positive but not significant.

This paper assesses empirically the relative desirability of alternative deficit-reducing tax increases and expenditure cuts in terms of their individual impact on economic growth, using crosssectional data for a sample of 21 developed countries for the period 1972-81.Property taxes are by far superior to deficit financing, and are the best choice for implementing deficit-reducing tax increases. Income taxes and domestic taxes on goods and services, which are as bad for growth as are deficits, rank second with no difference between them. Foreign trade taxes are even worse for growth than are deficits, and are the worst choice for reducing deficits.Classifying government expenditures into capital and current expenditures renders the latter as the best type for implementing a reduction in expenditures. Deficit-reducing cuts in capital expenditures are concomittant with lower growth, while such cuts in current expenditures have no net impact on growth.

Abstracl. This paper examines the impact of the key fiscal variables -taxes, expenditures, and deficits -on economic growth performance, using a reduced-form model and cross-sectional data for a sample of 76 developed and developing countries for the period 1972-81. Its simultaneous consideration of fiscal variables overturns the results of some existing studies. While taxes seem negatively associated with GDP growth, they are concommitant with a higher rate of growth when their benefits in terms of reducing deficits are taken into account. The positive association of government expenditures with GDP growth is rendered negative when their impact on deficits are factored in. Deficits are contractionary, and deficit-reducing tax increases and expenditure cuts are positively associated with growth. A balanced budget expansion of taxes and expenditures is negatively associated with growth. When separating the sample into low-, middle-and highincome countries, these results hold only for the second group indicating that the level of development influences the linkages between fiscal variables and GDP growth.
