Structural Change in the Uk Economy (Occasional Paper / University of Cambridge, Dept. of Applied Economics, 58) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Structural Change in the UK Economy consists of a number of interrelated contributions tracing the causes and effects of structural change in the UK in the 1970s and 1980s. Several themes are set out in the Introduction, including: deindustrialisation; the extent to which economic relationships have become unstable; the extent of mismatch in factor markets; and the characterisation of structural change as beneficial or not. These themes are further explored in the individual chapters. Some of these are concerned with a particular dimension of structural change (e.g. regional or industrial or firm-size). Other chapters discuss structural change in economic relationships which reflect the underlying changes in the economy - for example the rate of capital investment or the pace of technological change in different sectors. A number of chapters - including a contribution on European integration - consider the implications of structural change for economic policy.
