Title Government Size And Regional Economic Growth:Another Look
 
Creator Domazlicky, Bruce R.
 
Description A production function approach is used to explore the effect of government size on economic growth in the forty-eight contiguous states during the period 1977-89. Following Durden and Elledge, government employment is used as the measure of government size. The results indicate that the growth rate of gross state product (GSP) is not related to government size and the growth rate of per capita GSP is negatively related to government size. The conclusion is that there is little evidence of a positive effect of government size on regional economic growth.
