This paper incorporates export price shocks into the analysis of the effect of aid on growth. Previous analysis of the aid-growth relationship by Burnside and Dollar found that aid is more effective in raising growth the better are policies. However, this result has been criticized for being sensitive to choice of sample and for neglecting shocks. We construct export price indices using the app...

k field, algebraically closed G finite group Definitions (1) A representation of G over k of degree n is a homomorphism of groups ρ : G→GLn(k), or equivalently, a kG-module structure for an n-dimensional k vector space M , where kG is the group algebra. (2) A representation M is irreducible if it is a simple kG-module, and indecomposable if M 6= N1 ⊕ N2 for any non-trivial submodules N1, N2. No...
