Growth in Productivity, Catching-up and Innovation: An Analysis of OECD Manufacturing Sectors,
by Fabienne Fecher.
The purpose of this paper is to test a catching-up model for OECD manufacturing sectors over the 1970-1986 period. This model analyses the effect of both the catching-up process and innovative activity on total factor productivity growth. Total productivity is measured at two levels, that of technological progress and that of technical efficiency. The findings show that the reason for the increase in productivity is twofold: both the catching-up process and innovative activity are involved. It appears that R & D is an important contributor to technological progress while the catching-up process is a significant determinant of efficiency change. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
