| Summary: | This research relies on the theory of endogenous growth, where the role of foreign imported capital and triadic patent
propensity is assumed to endogenously determine the growth process of a group of 36 developing and emerging economies
for the years 1990-2010. Our results confirm the monotonicity hypothesis from both foreign imported technology and
triadic patent propensity toward technical efficiency improvement with no indication of pure TFP growth. The results
indicate that initial foreign capital and initial triadic patent propensity only minimally improve the technical efficiency
change for a small number of economies with nearly halve of the sample deviating from the convergence point. |
