The Solow model of economic growth : : application to contemporary macroeconomic issues / / Paweł Dykas, Tomasz Tokarski and Rafał Wisła.
"In 1956, Solow proposed a neoclassical growth model in opposition or as an alternative to Keynesian growth models. The Solow model of economic growth provided foundations for models embedded in the new theory of economic growth, known as the theory of endogenous growth, such as the renowned gr...
