Policy Paper (Interest) 01

This paper addresses two questions. The first is an assessment of the crucial thematic concerns of the Growth, Employment and Redistribution (GEAR) policy document that currently informs economic policy in South Africa. The second is to assess the coherence of GEAR as a growth strategy in terms of recent developments in our theoretical and empirical understanding of growth.
