Output, Input and Productivity Measures at the Industry Level: The EU KLEMS Database
介绍欧盟KLEMS增长与生产率账户的内容与构建方法，该数据库涵盖25个欧洲国家、日本和美国自1970年以来的行业层面产出、投入与生产率数据，可用于比较生产率趋势及其他应用。
This article describes the contents and the construction of the EU KLEMS Growth and Productivity Accounts. This database contains industry-level measures of output, inputs and productivity for 25 European countries, Japan and the US for the period from 1970 onwards. The article considers the methodology employed in constructing the database and shows how it can be useful in comparing productivity trends. Although growth accounts are the organising principle, it is argued that the database is useful for a wider range of applications. We give some guidance to prudent use and indicate possible extensions. Copyright © The Author(s). Journal compilation © Royal Economic Society 2009.
