The article presents estimates of perspective sources for technology borrowing in cereal cultivation industry for Russian regions. Estimates are based on technological ranking which is derived from cereal yield model using Solow residual methodology. The model uses cross-section averaged...

The work considers perspective ways of technology borrowing on industry-regional level in Russia and offers preliminary methodology for identification of suitable technologies for particular region. Methodology is based on labor productivity comparisons. For this purposes productivity levels for...

In this chapter we compute measures of total factor productivity (TFP) growth for developing countries and then contrast TFP growth with technological capital indexes. In developing these indexes, we incorporate schooling capital to yield two new indexes: Invention-Innovation Capital and...

This paper revisits the impact of population aging on economic growth. In order to understand the impact of population aging on economic growth, it is important to consider the changes in the entire age distribution of demography. Our empirical analysis indicates that a change in age...

The present study contributes to the analysis of economic growth by comparing labour ant total factor productivity (TFP) in France, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States in the very long run (since 1890) and in the medium run (since 1980). During the past century, the United States has...

This paper explores the contribution of structural change and the skill upgrading of the labour force to productivity. Our growth decomposition based on an original database we built for Tunisia and Turkey shows that productivity is mainly explained by intra-industry changes during the import...
