• No, this topic can easily be covered in
  Wikipedia is not a dictionary. The sources given above only mentions the term to describe the growth and do not demonstrate that this term is widely used. Ythlev (talk) 14:22, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply

• Ok, well, up to you. Wikipedia may not be a dictionary, but this is clearly not a dictionary entry - it's a highly detailed article about a notable concept that has attracted widespread coverage. The sheer prevalence of the sources, as well as the fact that some comment on the use of the term 'miracle' demonstrate that the term is itself notable and widely used. Anyway, let's let this one run its course and see what the consensus is. Hug^syrup 14:27, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - This is a well known term/event in economic history. In addition to Hugsyrup's links, try [8] ( [9] is a graduate thesis, but has citations to numerous studies of the phenomenon), and of course, the Thomas Gold book, a selection of which can be found here.
