摘要：A sustainable rate of real GDP growth is one of the best ways to promote the rise of living standards. From
a neoclassical point of view the underlying factors that affect economic growth are saving, population
growth and technological progress. Unemployment is also very important for obtaining a sustainable
economic growth. If unemployment is below its natural level, economic growth will generate higher
inflation .This paper emphasizes the link between real GDP growth and unemployment, as described by
Okun’s law. The empirical analysis shows that a rise of one percentage point of unemployment is
associated with a decline of roughly half percentage point of real GDP growth.
