Raging Incrementalism—System Engineering for Continuous Change
For nearly every technology there is a doubling period over which the price/performance ratio of that technology improves by a factor of 2. Careful examination of longterm historical trends reveals that these doubling periods are themselves shortening every decade; implying that the rate of technical progress is hyperexponential. If we take the 1990s as the benchmark decade of technical progres...
متن کاملStructural Change or Logical Incrementalism? Turbulence in the Global Meat System
In the last ten years the global meat industry has encountered numerous critical events related to food safety and food quality. These events in turn have caused the industry to re-evaluate how the meat supply chain functions and how to service the new social attributes demanded in the market place. This paper uses a unique methodology, shedding light on why and how the US meat industry is evol...
متن کاملStructural Change and Non-Constant Biased Technical Change
Empirical evidence suggests that the differences in rates of technical progress across sectors are time-variant, implying that the bias in technological change is not constant. In this paper, we analyze the implications of this nonconstant sectoral biased technical change for structural change and we assess whether this is an important factor behind structural transformations. To this end, we d...
متن کاملTotal Factor Productivity Growth, Technical Change and Technical Efficiency Change in Asian Economies: Decomposition Analysis
The aim of this paper is to analyze total factor productivity (TFP) growth and its components in Asian countries applying Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) to the time series data of 44 Asian countries from 2000 to 2010. Using Battese and Coelli approach, TFP is divided into technical efficiency change and technical change. TFP decomposition using SFA method for the years 1998 to 2007 indicate...
