In fact the pace at which developing countries grow is largely determined by the pace at which they close that gap. Therefore, how countries learn and become more productive is key to understanding how they grow and develop, especially over the long term.

Rather than each present leaving a set past behind it, the past continually circulates through and shapes the present.
