Synopsis "productivity, technology and economic growth (in English)"

productivity, technology and economic growth presents a selection of recent research advances on long term economic growth. while the contributions stem from both economic history, macro- and microeconomics and the economics of innovation, all papers depart from a common viewpoint: the key factor behind long term growth is productivity, and the latter is primarily driven by technological change. most contributions show implicitly or explicitly that technological change is at least partly dependent on growth itself. furthermore, technology appears to interact strongly with investment in physical and human capital as well as with changes in historical, political and institutional settings. together these papers are an up-to-date account of the remarkable convergence in theoretical and empirical work on productivity and growth over the past decades. the first part deals with the characteristics of growth regimes over longer periods, ranging from 20 years to two centuries. the next four chapters study the determinants of productivity growth and, in some cases, productivity slowdown during the last quarter of the twentieth century. the final five chapters focus on the role of technology and innovation as the key determinants of growth. productivity, technology and economic growth is, therefore, a welcome collection for academic scholars and graduate students in economics, history and related social sciences as well as for policy makers.
