摘要 在本文中,我们提供了七个国家在详细行业层面的产出、投入和生产率相对水平的新证据。这些比较基于不包括行业内流动的部门产出指标。我们认为这提高了国际可比性和分析的洞察力。我们分析的欧洲国家和盎格鲁撒克逊国家的生产率水平相对相似,但我们确实发现生产结构存在巨大差异。与其他国家相比,美国工业每单位产出使用更多熟练劳动力、更多信息通信技术资本、更多服务和更多能源,但使用更少材料。这种模式适用于商品生产行业和服务生产行业。
ABSTRACT In this paper we provide new evidence on relative levels of output, inputs and productivity at a detailed industry level for a set of seven countries. These comparisons are based on sectoral output measures that exclude intra-industry flows. We argue that this improves international comparability and the insightfulness of the analysis. Productivity levels are relatively similar in the European and Anglo-Saxon countries we analyze, but we do find large differences in production structures. US industries use more skilled labour, more ICT capital, more services and more energy, but less materials, per unit of output than the other countries. This pattern is found for both goods-producing and services-producing industries.
