The Sources of Labor Productivity Growth in Norway, South Korea and Iran: A Structural Decomposition Analysis
Abstract In this paper,using a structural decomposition analysis (SDA) and the latest available input-output tables we investigate the sources of labor productivity growth in Norway, South Korea and Iran. Then, the contribution of each source in the growth of labor productivity is discussed. The results show that among six factors, value added coefficient is the most influencing factoracross al...
متن کاملLabor Productivity and the Law of Decreasing Labor Content
This paper analyzes labor productivity and the law of decreasing labor content (LDLC) originally formulated by Farjoun and Machover (1983). First, it is shown that the standard measures of labor productivity may be rather misleading, owing to their emphasis on monetary aggregates. Instead, the conventional classical-Marxian labor values provide the theoretically and empirically sound measures o...
متن کاملHuman-mobility networks, country income, and labor productivity
This paper asks whether the level of integration of world countries in the international network of temporary human mobility can explain differences in their per-capita income and labor productivity. We disentangle the role played by global country centrality in the network from traditional openness measures, which only account for local, nearestneighbor linkages through which ideas and knowled...
متن کاملDecoding Productivity: Business Cycle Properties of Labor Productivity Growth
Among the variables most often tracked by economic analysts and policymakers, the rate of growth of labor productivity is one of the most volatile and hardest to interpret, at least in the short run. Yet, it is often used to explain movements in inflation and output under the assumption that there are stable relationships between productivity growth and those variables. This paper uses frequenc...

The conjecture about the effect of labor dates back, at least, to attempts to explain the divergence in ...
