摘要
This study examines the causal relationship between information and communications technology (ICT) development and economic growth in twenty two of European countries. The Granger causality test is performed following the cointegration approach to reveal the direction of causality between ICT development and economic growth. Test results indicate two things; I) there is long-run equilibrium relationship between ICT development and economic growth for Cyprus and Malta; and 2) a diverse one-way directional causality is evidenced, either ICT-led growth for Cyprus and Spain or growth-led ICT development for Portugal and Sweden. A discussion follows based on the empirical findings.
