Abstract
This paper explores how different values of the elasticity of substitution between capital and labor ( σ) impact on the balanced growth paths and growth potential of a country in exogenous growth models. The behavior of the system depends on the value of σ and the passage of σ through two critical values causes a qualitative change in the nature of the singular points and of its trajectories. The balanced growth path defined by a singular point in the form of a saddle-path exists and is locally stable if σ lies between two critical values.
