产业间和产业内转换是生产率增长的源泉 ： 芬兰 ICT 产业的结构变化

The study, published in the Journal of Productivity Analysis, examines the sources of productivity growth in Finland's ICT industry. The authors develop an improved productivity decomposition that accounts for both intra-industry and inter-industry switching, and apply it to the industry's first two decades of the 21st century. The study reveals that the decline of labor productivity was associated with structural changes, while surviving firms in the same industry managed to improve their productivity. The results indicate that industry switching can either dampen or enhance the productivity impacts of structural change, especially during times of crisis and recession. The study contributes to the understanding of the role of structural change in productivity growth and provides insights for policymakers.
