Does Social Capital Contribute in the Economic Growth Process?

Kafoussias, Dionyssis

Abstract

Countries that are laggards in terms of technology have a potential for generating growth more rapidly than that of countries that are forging ahead. If the social capabilities of the former are adequate and sufficiently developed the backwardness becomes a potential advantage which accelerates the process towards catching up.
