Alan Taylor Gerardo Paolera National Bureau of Economic Research SBR-9602042 This research will construct an economic history of Argentina in period 1910 to 1940. This economic history will focus on three major areas: growth and structural change, income distribution, and policy decisions on openness of the economy. This research is of particular interest because Argentina was one of the wealthiest South American countries around the turn-of-the- century, yet it was unable to sustain a period of economic growth into the 20th century. As such, it is a classic example of failure of modern economic growth. This research will use cliometrics (econometric models combined with historical analysis) to attempt to unravel why this failure occurred and to hopefully provide insights useful in modern day economies.

Alan Taylor Gerardo Paolera国家经济研究局SBR-9602042 这项研究将构建一个阿根廷在1910年至1940年期间的经济史。 本经济史将侧重于三个主要领域：增长和结构变化，收入分配和经济开放的政策决定。 这项研究是特别感兴趣的，因为阿根廷是一个最富有的南美洲国家之一，在转的世纪，但它无法维持一个时期的经济增长到20世纪世纪。 因此，这是现代经济增长失败的一个典型例子。 这项研究将使用历史计量学（计量经济学模型与历史分析相结合），试图解开为什么会发生这种失败，并希望提供对现代经济有用的见解。
