Published By: Pakistan Institute of Development Economics (PIDE) | Published Date: January, 01 , 2014

In this study an attempt has been made to resolve this controversy by putting this question in a dynamic simultaneous equation framework that combines in a system the regression in differences with regression in levels applied on a cross county data set over the period 1987-2002.
