In neoclassical growth models, the sources of growth technological advancement is exogenous. Therefore, such models describe how an economy grows, but not why it grows.

To overcome this shortcoming, several growth models have been developed to make growth endogenous. In contrast to neoclassical growth theory, endogenous growth theory argues that policy measures (such as subsidies on R&D and education, for example) can have a long-run positive impact on the economy and its growth rate.
