Trade, tourism, education, and growth in Mauritius
by Ka Ming Cheng
International Journal of Tourism Policy (IJTP), Vol. 3, No. 2, 2010

Abstract: The present paper analyses the impacts of trade openness, tourism, investment, and human capital investment on economic growth in Mauritius with aggregated and disaggregated measures. The advantage of the disaggregated measures is that they provide more information about the effects of the specific measures on growth. Error correction methodology captures the dynamics of the output growth to the specific determinants of growth. Empirical results indicate positive effects of the Export Processing Zone, tourism, investment, and human capital investment. The strategic tourism marketing policy aimed at high spending tourists has led to economic growth.
