| Abstract: | During the 1980s, extensive structural adjustments took place in the US economy. This paper uses estimates of sectorally detailed social accounting matrices to evaluate the changes in receipt and expenditure patterns, including interindustry linkages, over the 1982-1988 period. Among other effects, the results reveal increasing service orientation, shifts in energy use, and increased import and foreign investment dependence. |
