R. E. Johnson

ResearchPublished 1964

This is a controversial subject, and it is not clear which technique of analysis, if any, will help resolve the issue. In this Memorandum, through the use of a macro-analytic technique, various factors that affect growth rates are analyzed to estimate the contribution of foreign aid to economic growth and to provide a method for identifying those countries that seem most likely to benefit from aid
