There is a wide variety of perspectives for productivity analysis.
The back grounds of different researchers and practitioners who
work on this topic include such fields as economics, business
administration, and industrial engineering, among others. Within
each such field, there are different schools of thought on the
theory and application of productivity analysis. Often it is not
difficult to observe a lack of communication among the advocates of
these separate schools. The purpose of this book is to present in a
single volume samples of alternative approaches to productivity
analy sis. This may be considered as a first step toward a better
communication among practitioners and researchers in the fields of
management, industrial engineering, and economics. The focus of the
book is on the United States, where the productivity growth problem
has been acute for some time. The book begins with a brief overview
chapter that covers some of the issues involved in productivity
analysis and a sample of methodological ap proaches presently in
use. After this introduction, we move to Chapter 2 where Solomon
Fabricant presents the issues related to measurement and analysis
at the macroeconomic level. In Chapter 3, C. Lowell Harriss
discusses concepts that he considers es sential for productivity
growth: capital formation, technological progress, and freedom."
