In modern economics, economic growth is assessed quantitatively and qualitatively. For example, an economy not only gains high and stable growth rates but also has ability to deal with external upheavals; structure of industry is modernized; contribution of TFP is high; its competitiveness is beefed up incessantly; and it ensures social welfare, poverty alleviation and environmental protection. From a macroeconomic aspect, the paper analyzes and evaluates the quality of economic growth in Đà Nẵng in 1997-2009 employing economic indicators of short, medium and long terms. Findings show that the quality of economic growth is improved; changes in its structure of industry are quick and positive, and linked with changes in structure of resources and comparative advantages; the TFP is enhanced; and socioeconomic policies are reformed and perfected.
