World Bank Chief Economist gave lecture at the NU
Lin, who is the Bank’s first Chief Economist from a developing country and whose term ends on June 1 of this year, is leaving his mark on the institution by advancing a framework for rethinking development and policy. Taking account of growth lessons from past decades, New Structural Economics focuses on how an economy’s structure is endogenous to its factor endowment and highlights the importance of continuous technological innovation, industrial upgrading and diversification based on comparative advantage.
