Reviews for Measuring Economic Growth and Productivity: Foundations, KLEMS Production Models, and Extensions
Twenty-two papers explore challenges associated with measuring economic growth and productivity highlighting the use of capital, labor, energy, materials, and services (KLEMS) data and production models. Papers discuss how economic growth is achieved; the evolution of the US national accounts with a focus on the intersection of measurement, theory, and economic research; the efficiency costs and welfare gains from potential tax reform. --Journal of Economic Literature
