How the West "invented" fertility restriction (2013, neutral): “It seeks a single explanation of the transition from ’Malthusian stagnation’ to self-sustaining, rapid growth (Galor, 2005; Hansen and Prescott, 2002; Galor and Weil, 2000; Kremer, 1993).”
Semi-endogenous versus Schumpeterian growth models: testing the knowledge production function using international data (2008, background): “Another empirical challenge ahead is to confront the theories with very long historical evidence, and particularly to investigate whether endogenous growth theories can explain the transition from stagnation in growth to positive growth rates that took place in many European countries around 200 yea”
Why England? Demographic factors, structural change and physical capital accumulation during the Industrial Revolution (2006, methodology): “Galor (2005) argues that geographical factors and historical accident interacted to delay or accelerate the timing of the “Great Escape,” and that “variations in institutional, demographic, and cultural factors, trade patterns, colonial status, and public policy” may have played a role.”
Institutions and Economic Growth in Historical Perspective (2014, background): “The same importance of the institutional system as a whole emerges from the survey in Lesson 7 of historical demography, which has come to play an increasingly important role in recent literature on economic growth (Galor, 2005a,b;Acemoglu, 2009; Guinnane, 2011).”
Human Genetic Diversity and Comparative Economic Development (2008, background): “…(2000), FernándezVillaverde (2001), Galor and Moav (2002), Lucas (2002), Lagerlöf (2003, 2006), Doepke (2004), Galor and Mountford (2004, 2006), Galor (2005) and in the recent study of Galor et al. (2006), and has been demonstrated empirically by Glaeser et al. (2004). production technology…”
The democratic transition (2013, neutral): “…list of references might include Bourguignon and Morrisson (2002), describing the world income distribution since 1820; Galor and Weil (2000) and Galor (2005, 2011), analyzing the joint variations of income and population over the long run as well as the structural forces that have triggered…”
A Farewell to Critical Junctures: Sorting Out Long-Run Causality of Income and Democracy (2009, methodology): “Clark (2007) builds on Unified Growth Theory, especially on the evolutionary growth model of Galor and Moav (2002).”
Trade and the Great Divergence: The Family Connection (2006, background): “E-mail: Oded_Galor@Brown.edu.”
The past and future of knowledge-based growth (2012, positive): “The onset of mass education, according to our model, happens jointly with the fertility transition, a feature that is shared with the standard theory of unified growth (Galor 2005).”
Foreign Direct Investment, human capital and non-linearities in economic growth (2010, neutral): “That is, at a given time interval, countries display differences in their growth characteristics in their transition to a high growth position (Galor, 2005) and this is reflected in the observed non-linearities in the data.”
The Facts of Economic Growth (2015, background): “A related set of papers including Mankiw, Romer and Weil (1992), Islam (1995), and Caselli, Esquivel and Lefort (1996) conduct a similar exercise in a regression framework.”
