Abstract

ABSTRACT:Over the past fifty years BPEA authors have written extensively about both domestic US productivity growth and international sources of growth differences in rich and poor countries. This paper summarizes and evaluates five BPEA papers on US productivity growth that focus primarily on the sources of the post-1965 growth slowdown and post-1995 growth revival. Then three papers are reviewed on international growth differences, highlighting the difficulties of empirically determining the sources of growth and the competing roles in growth outcomes of structural factors like geography and demography versus policy and governmental issues, including legal systems, property rights, and absence of corruption.

BPEA多年来的生产力和增长

摘要:在过去的50年里，经济学家们撰写了大量关于美国国内生产率增长和贫富国家增长差异的国际根源的文章。本文总结并评估了五篇关于美国生产率增长的BPEA论文，这些论文主要关注1965年后增长放缓和1995年后增长复苏的根源。然后回顾了三篇关于国际增长差异的论文，强调了从经验上确定增长来源的困难，以及地理和人口等结构性因素与政策和政府问题(包括法律制度、产权和缺乏腐败)在增长结果中的竞争作用。

期刊介绍： The Brookings Papers on Economic Activity (BPEA) is a semi-annual academic conference and journal that pairs rigorous research with real-time policy analysis to address the most urgent economic challenges of the day. Working drafts of the papers are presented and discussed at conferences typically held twice each year, and the final versions of the papers and comments along with summaries of the general discussions are published in the journal several months later. The views expressed by the authors, discussants and conference participants in BPEA are strictly those of the authors, discussants and conference participants, and not of the Brookings Institution. As an independent think tank, the Brookings Institution does not take institutional positions on any issue.
