Abstract
The main goal of this paper is to clarify a few important aspects about the aggregation issues in efficiency and productivity analysis. By doing so we also sketch a brief historical map on how the area of aggregation in efficiency and productivity analysis has developed to where it is now and its connection to some classic studies in economic theory. As a result, this paper also serves as a tribute to the great scholars I was lucky to learn from, Rolf Färe and Shawna Grosskopf, who made a profound impact on research in economics in general and the topic of aggregation in productivity and efficiency analysis in particular.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Productivity Analysis publishes theoretical and applied research that addresses issues involving the measurement, explanation, and improvement of productivity. The broad scope of the journal encompasses productivity-related developments spanning the disciplines of economics, the management sciences, operations research, and business and public administration. Topics covered in the journal include, but are not limited to, productivity theory, organizational design, index number theory, and related foundations of productivity analysis. The journal also publishes research on computational methods that are employed in productivity analysis, including econometric and mathematical programming techniques, and empirical research based on data at all levels of aggregation, ranging from aggregate macroeconomic data to disaggregate microeconomic data. The empirical research illustrates the application of theory and techniques to the measurement of productivity, and develops implications for the design of managerial strategies and public policy to enhance productivity.
