Abstract

This paper is estimating the correlation between tariffs and growth in the late 19th century in the context of three types of growth equation : unconditional convergence equations; conditional convergence equations, associated with Mankiw, Romer and Weil (1992); and factor accumulation models of the type estimated by Taylor (1996a).
