Agell等人（2005）批评了我们早期的发现（Fölster和Henrekson 2001），即在富裕国家的扩展样本中，政府规模与经济增长之间存在强烈的负相关关系。在这篇短文中，我们认为他们的批评是没有根据的。最重要的是，该批评没有处理原始研究的主要结果，即评估富裕国家政府支出与增长之间关系的最完整规范，即使根据严格的极端界限标准，也是稳健的。
Agell et al. (2005) criticise our earlier findings (Fölster and Henrekson 2001) of a robust negative relationship between government size and economic growth for an extended sample of rich countries. In this short paper it is argued that their critique is unfounded. Most importantly, the critique does not deal with the main result of the original study, namely that the most complete specifications for assessing the relationship between government expenditure and growth in rich countries are robust even according to stringent extreme bounds criteria.
