Tiivistelmä: | International trade economists typically assume that there are no cross-country differences in industry total factor productivity (TPF). In contrast, this paper finds large and persistent TFP differences across a group of industrialized countries in the 1980s. The paper calculates TFP indices, and statistically examines the sources of the observed large TFP differences across countries. Two hypotheses are examined to account for TFP differences. |
