This book was released on 2005-10-27 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigates the effect of information technology (IT) on productivity growth in an information economy. A substantial number of studies have found significant and positive relationships between IT and U.S. productivity growth. The recent literature on the productivity surge during the second half of the 1990s has confirmed that almost all of the productivity improvement in the United States was attributable to IT. However, the existing studies have one important missing element in the analysis of the importance of IT in productivity growth. They have failed to unravel where productivity growth comes from. This study has extended the existing literature in several important ways. First, we have successfully decomposed the sources of productivity growth into technological progress, efficiency improvement, and scale economies using a stochastic frontier production function. We have applied our model to Korea which has emerged as an Internet paradise in the late 1990s. Another merit of using Korean data is provided by the availability of vast panel data that include observations on 4,022 firms from 1996 to 2000. We have found a strong relationship between IT and productivity growth. Surprisingly, productivity growth remained quite strong despite the 1997 financial crisis and the subsequent recession, and the bust of the IT bubble in 2000. Our empirical results also show that approximately 80% of TFP growth comes from technological progress, 15% of TFP growth comes from efficiency improvement, and the rest comes from scale economies. Thus, the dominant source of TFP growth is technological progress, but the proportion of efficiency improvement in TFP growth has continually increased. Efficiency improvement primarily represents improved management and organizational productivity. Thus our study supports two proposed hypotheses: (1) productivity growth under the New Economy is more robust to business cycles than under the Old Economy, and (2) improvement in business efficiency plays a greater role in enhancing productivity under the New Economy than under the Old Economy. We conclude that information technology has already made a quantum difference in productivity growth.

This book was released on 2000-05-04 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Facing Asia examines the political and economic processes of regionalism and regionalization in Asia with a focus on Japan and Japanese actors. The articles by eminent scholars address the forces that tie the region together. They treat topics ranging from Japanese bilateral and multilateral ODA and the activities of state and non-state actors on the regional level to issues such as Japanese multinational corporations, foreign direct investment in Asia, and regional financial institutions. Methodologically, the authors draw on disciplinary strengths in either the social sciences or economics while organizing their treatment around a shared political-economic perspective. By looking at Asia through an interdisciplinary lens, the volume offers something to anyone interested in Japanese involvement in the politics and economics of the region. In the final chapter, the editors weave together the different approaches to Japan's place in Asian regional cooperation in the 1990s and beyond.

This book was released on 2023-09-06 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an insightful analysis of Korea's remarkable economic growth and the role of international trade in this process. The book traces the economic development of Korea, from being one of the poorest countries in the 1960s to becoming a global leader in high-tech industries. The authors analyze the changes in Korea's industrial structure and how they have shifted the economy from an agricultural-based to a manufacturing and high-tech industry. The book also provides a critical review of different theories and perspectives that explain Korea's rapid growth, including the role of R&D, technology spillover, and productivity. Additionally, the book explores the implications for developing countries seeking economic development and the need for technological innovation to sustain long-term growth. This book is a must-read for researchers, policymakers, and students interested in the Korean economy and the nexus between international trade and economic growth.

This book was released on 2021-03-26 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Korea’s economy has leaped to high-income status thanks to several decades of sustained high growth. However, population aging and shifts in global demand provide headwinds for future growth and Korea now faces the effects of COVID-19 on economic activity. This paper asseses the expected drag on potential growth from these factors and discusses policies that could provide offsetting upward momentum by facilitating structural transformation. We find that potential output growth slowed to about 21⁄2 percent before the COVID-19 pandemic and would have fallen to 2 percent by 2030, mainly due to demographic factors. Moreover, there is a possibility of scarring from the COVID-19 shock as adjustment frictions from structural rigidities interact with shifts in demand and supply patterns, lowering investment and labor force participation. At the same time, industry-level analysis suggests ample scope to raise productivity, especially in services where productivity gains have lagged. Addressing these rigidities could offset a large proportion of the expected downward pressure on potential output.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focal point of this study, first published in 1991, is to investigate the effect of growth patterns on inflation and the distribution of income through inductive examination of the particular experiences in Korea and Taiwan. Both countries are regarded as models of successful industrialization, but contrast significantly in the matter of their development strategy yielding a more equitable distribution of income, along with a moderate inflation from the benefits of economic growth. Korea experienced considerable rates of inflation and a worsening of the distribution of income, while Taiwan avoided both economic evils. This book analyses how Taiwan’s economy managed to reconcile growth with inflation and distribution and why Korea could not achieve similar performance.

This book was released on 2008-09-20 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Productivity growth is a keyword for sustainable economic growth in a knowledge-based society. There has been significant methodological development in the literature on productivity and efficiency analysis, e.g. SFA (Stochastic Frontier Analysis) and DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis). All these methodological developments should be matched with applications in order to provide practical implications for private and public decision-makers. This volume provides a collection of up-to-date and new applications of productivity and efficiency analysis. In particular, the case studies cover various economic issues in the Asia-Pacific region. The authors analyze the performance of manufacturing firms, banks, venture capital, broadcasting firms, as well as the issues of efficiency in the education sector, regional development, and defense industry. These case studies will shed light on the potential contribution of productivity and efficiency analysis to the enhancement of economic performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes, from a historical comparative perspective, the Korean economic development model, the extent to which it has changed from its classical model, and what constitutes its changes and continuity. Unlike studies claims the dissolution of Korean developmentalism, the book holds that the Korean state maintains its characteristics of state-led capitalism despite significant changes in policies and instruments rather than converge toward an AngloSaxon-style free market system. It emphasizes that the continuity of state-led capitalism is compatible with institutional change. Some institutionalists insist that the continuity of Korean developmentalism is based on path dependency. In contrast, this book argues that Korean capitalism could sustain its state developmentalism by changes in policies and instruments to improve national industrial competitiveness in the changed context of international competition. This book will be of interest to East Asian scholars, comparative economists, and those curious about the future of the Korean peninsula.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Productivity is considered one of the most important factors for economic growth. Total productivity grows through technological progress or reallocation of resources. This paper analyses their contribution to economic growth for total economy and by sectors. The main finding is that economy-wide increases but this is mainly due to internal technological improvements. On the one hand, inter-sector reallocation of labor negatively contributes to economic growth as employment moves to service sectors with low productivity. Further, when looking at the sectoral-level productivity growth, both internal and external restructuring make positive contributions to aggregate economic growth. However, internal technological progress and reallocation of employment appear to similarly contribute to the sectoral-level economic growth in the manufacturing sector, whereas internal restructuring makes a larger contribution to economic growth in the service sector. This suggests that there is more room for reallocation of resources to contribute to the productivity growth in service sectors. Therefore, the productivity growth of the service sector would foster economy-wide productivity and it can be achieved by the mitigation of misallocation of resources in service sectors.
