自 20 世纪 60 年代末以来,美国生产率增长的崩溃是近期经济问题中最严重、最持久的问题。本卷回顾了增长放缓的程度,评估了几个影响因素,并提出了改进策略。作者发现,20 世纪 70 年代的通货膨胀、经济衰退、油价波动和其他经济动荡对经济表现产生了不利影响,但他们认为,创新步伐放缓和未能充分利用创新的好处也导致了生产率的疲软。 Baily 和 Chakrabarti 对美国技术政策及其对增长的重要性进行了全面评估。他们主张继续支持基础科学,尽管这一领域的实力不会给美国经济带来直接的竞争优势,并主张增加对“中间立场”和商业研究的支持。他们的结论是,这种支持的结构必须能够保持市场的优势。
The collapse of U.S. productivity growth since the late 1960s has been the most severe and persistent of recent economic problems. This volume reviews the extent of the growth slowdown, evaluates several contributing factors, and suggests strategies for improvement. The authors find that inflation, recessions, oil price fluctuations, and other economic disruptions in the 1970s had an averse effect on economic performance, but, they suggest, a slowing in the pace of innovation and a failure to exploit the benefits of innovation also contributed to the weakness in productivity.Baily and Chakrabarti provide a comprehensive assessment of U.S. technology policy and its importance to growth. They argue for continued support of basic science, even though strength in this area does not give the U.S. economy an immediate competitive advantage, and advocate increased support for "middle ground" and commercial research. They conclude that this support must be structured to preserve the advantages of the market.
