This work aims to examine the relationship between human capital and economic growth. The study analyzes datasets from previous works, reviews previous literature, and draws some conclusions on human capital and economic growth. The paper summarizes articles on human capital in terms of (i) the theoretical framework of economic growth theory, (ii) the neo-classical growth model, (iii) the Solow growth production-function, (iv) the new endogenous theory, and (v) empirical evidence on the relationship and causal link between human capital and economic growth. Assessing the literature on human capital and economic growth will serve as a comprehensive literature guide to policy formulation and implementation in the short-run and long-run of creating developmental goals for any region.
This paper investigates the causal relationship between government spending on education and economic growth in eight selected Latin American countries by using panel unit root test and panel cointegration analysis for the period 2000-2014. A threevariable model was formulated with trade volume as the second independent variable. The findings conclude that government spending on education and economic growth in the selected countries is positively and significantly associated, in the long and shortrun, with evidence of a bidirectional Granger causal relationship between the dependent and the variable of interest, a unidirectional Granger causal relationship between trade volume and economic growth. The implication of our results shows that government secondary school spending on education has a positive impact on the selected countries, and our analysis can be replicated with other countries. Contribution/Originality: The paper's main contribution to the existing literature by investigating the cointegration and Granger causal relationship between human capital and economic growth for eight selected Latin
The paper aims to establish a long-run and the Granger causal relationship between economic growth, emissions, international trade, energy consumption, and population density in Malaysia. The study will use annual data from 1970 to 2014. A unique cointegrating relationship between our variables was identified. The study employed the Auto-Regressive Distributed Lag model to examine the Environmental Kuznets Curve . Our empirical results analysis showed a long-run relationship between per capita emissions and our explanatory variables . To investigate the Granger causal relationship between , the Vector Error Correction Model was employed and our results, associated the absence of Granger causality between emissions and economic growth in the short-run while revealing a uni-directional Granger causality movement from economic growth to emissions in the long-run. Hence, an increase in will lead to a rise in emissions in Malaysia.
