'The dramatic development of global production networks in the last
few decades has inspired new analytical insights in the field of
international trade and environmental economics. The input output
analysis, once considered ''old-fashioned,'' was brought back to
the stage as a key analytical tool, and this Handbook's impeccable
timing captures these emerging academic interests and refreshes the
image of traditional input-output users. This unique publication
features multi-dimensional coverage of relevant topics rallying the
expertise of statisticians, theorists, and practitioners, and hence
is expected to serve a wide range of today s scientific needs. A
highly informative read for students, scholars, business persons,
and policy-makers alike.' - Satoshi Inomata, IDE-JETRO, Japan The
field of input-output analysis is fragmented. Statisticians collect
and organize data and construct input-output coefficients.
Economists analyze these coefficients and their changes to measure
and explain important concepts such as productivity, efficiency and
comparative advantages. Applied economists and environmental
analysts then build models around input-output matrices for
scenario and impact analyses. This authoritative Handbook
encompasses all these elements, explaining in detail the treatment
and role of input-output statistics in the System of National
Accounts. Importantly, it provides a unifying global supply-use
framework to tie together many of the unresolved issues in
collecting statistics, constructing input-output coefficients, and
their use in modeling. Leading experts from international
statistical offices and universities provide comprehensive coverage
of the field, including history, theory, applications, uncertainty
and dynamics. They elucidate the collection of accounting
statistics, the construction of input-output tables, and their use
in economic and environmental analysis. Furthermore, they examine
the building of applied general equilibrium models, the use of
these models for efficiency analysis, and the links to stochastic
and dynamic input-output analysis. Students and academics studying
applied economics and environmental modeling and will find this an
enlightening guide to the state of the art. As well as revealing
and exploring the theoretical foundations, the Handbook will also
act as a useful guide for practitioners. Contributors include: J.
