Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the GDP/cap Data
Ron W Nielsen
Mathematical properties of the historical GDP/cap distributions are discussed and explained. These distributions are frequently incorrectly interpreted and the Unified Growth Theor…
Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the Economic Growth in Europe
Ron W Nielsen
Historical economic growth in Western and Eastern Europe is analysed. These regions should have produced the best and the most convincing confirmation of the Unified Growth Theory…
Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the Economic Growth in the Former USSR
Ron W Nielsen
Historical economic growth in countries of the former USSR is analysed. It is shown that Unified Growth Theory is contradicted by the data, which were used, but not analysed, durin…
Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the Economic Growth in Asia
Ron W Nielsen
Historical economic growth in Asia (excluding Japan) is analysed. It is shown that Unified Growth Theory is contradicted by the data, which were used (but not analysed) during the…
Unified Growth Theory Contradicted by the Economic Growth in Africa
Ron W Nielsen
One of the fundamental postulates of the Unified Growth Theory is the claimed existence of three distinctly different regimes of economic growth governed by three distinctly differ…
Early Warning Signs of the Economic Crisis in Greece: A Warning for Other Countries and Regions
Ron W Nielsen
Warning signs about the developing economic crisis in Greece were present in the growth rate of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and in the growth of the GDP well before the econom…
The Insecure Future of the World Economic Growth
Ron W Nielsen
Growth rate of the world Growth Domestic Product (GDP) is analysed to determine possible pathways of the future economic growth. The analysis is based on using the latest data of t…
Mathematics of Predicting Growth
Ron W Nielsen
Mathematical methods of analysis of data and of predicting growth are discussed. The starting point is the analysis of the growth rates, which can be expressed as a function of tim…
Hyperbolic Growth of the World Population in the Past 12,000 Years
Ron W. Nielsen
Data describing the growth of the world population in the past 12,000 years are analysed. It is shown that, if unchecked, population does not increase exponentially but hyperbolica…
Demographic Transition Theory Contradicted Repeatedly by Data
Ron W. Nielsen
In the absence of convincing evidence, data for Sweden and Mauritius are used in academic publications to illustrate the Demographic Transition Theory. These data are closely exami…
Mathematical Analysis of the Historical Economic Growth
Ron W. Nielsen
Data describing historical economic growth are analysed. Included in the analysis is the world and regional economic growth. The analysis demonstrates that historical economic grow…
