An error correction model using new data on human and physical capital stock, is used to estimate the growth of total factor productivity for 83 countries for 1960-87. The results show that human capital accumulation explains more cross- country variations in growth than previously thought. And cross- country differences in total factor productivity growth can be attributed mostly to differences in initial conditions and political stability
