Kaldor’s growth laws (1970);
1st Law
“The growth of the GDP is positively related to the growth of the manufacturing sector”
2nd Law
“The productivity of the manufacturing sector is positively related to the growth of the manufacturing sector”
3rd Law “The productivity of the non-manufacturing sector is
positively related to the growth of the manufacturing sector”
