Departing from the usual indicators of sound economic fundamentals, this paper argues that factors like quality of human resources, competitiveness of the national innovation system, stable political, social and economic institutions, and environmentally-safe and ecologically-sound industrial practices can be alternative conditions for sustainable growth.
