Tiivistelmä: | The authors examine the sources of aggregate labor productivity movements and convergence in the U.S. states from 1963 to 1989. Productivity levels vary greatly across sectors and across states , as do sectoral output and employment shares. The main finding is the diverse performance of sectors regarding convergence. Using both cross-section and time series methods, the authors find convergence in labour productivity for both manufacturing and mining. However, the authors find that convergence does not hold for all sectors over the period. |
