The Greek economy in a Kaldorian developmental framework

Abstract: This paper empirically explores the validity of the Kaldorian insights into economic growth and development. In doing so, we examine the three laws outlined in Kaldor’s analysis and test their relevance to the Greek economy for the period 1970–2006. We employ the ARDL method to analyse the long-run and short-run relationships among the variables. The empirical results confirm Kaldor’s proposition about the importance of the demand side of the economy and thus provide the necessary theoretical and empirical gro… Show more

“…Delivani (1991) and Delivani -Nikas (2013) argued that the "engine of growth" for Greece was not the manufacturing but the tourism sector. This view came in stark contrast to the results of Drakopoulos -Theodosiou (1991) and Katrakilidis et al (2013) and provided a motive for further research in order to point out the importance of the tourism and primary sector instead of the manufacturing sector in Greece.…”

“…Over the past decades the implementation of the Kaldorian theory was one of the most notable trends in economic analysis. Drakopoulos -Theodosius (1991) and Katrakilidis et al (2013) proceeded to investigate the validity of the Kaldorian theory. They tested the three laws of the Kaldor's theory and its relevance to the Greek economy for the period of 1970-2006, based on the ARDL method.…”

“…ARDL bound testing developed by Pesaran et al (2001) is adopted. The ARDL approach presents numerous advantages in contrast to other cointegration methods (Apostolidou et al, 2014;Katrakilidis et al, 2013). Nkoro and Uko (2016) state that the Maintaining the stability of the housing market adoption of the ARDL cointegration technique does not require tests for unit roots unlike other techniques.…”

“…The structural weaknesses of the Greek economy were evident from the early post-war years. The fact is that the first post-war years, with the funds of the Marshall Plan, were dominated by the idea that economic growth is closely intertwined with the industrialization of the economy (see also Katrakilidis, et al, 2013). Industrialization was a process that went on, albeit slowly, during the 1950s and 1960s.…”
