Chinese economic performance in the long run
by Angus Maddison
(
)
21 editions published between 1998 and 2007 in English and French and held by 732 WorldCat member libraries worldwide The study provides a major reassessment of the scale and scope of China's resurgence over the past half century, employing quantitative measurement techniques which are standard practice in OECD countries. It uses a comparative approach to explain why China's role in the world economy has changed so dramatically in the last thousand years. It concludes that China is likely to resume its natural role as the world's largest economy by the year 2015, thus regaining the position it had held until 1890. A dynamic link (StatLink) is provided for each table and graph, which directs the user to a web page where the corresponding data are available in Excel® format.--Publisher's description
The world economy : historical statistics
by Angus Maddison
(
Book
)
17 editions published between 2001 and 2003 in English and held by 714 WorldCat member libraries worldwide Maddison offers insights into the history and political influence of national accounts and national accounting. He demonstrates that such statistical data can enlighten the contemporary and later observer in the analysis of economic phenomena such as growth, market formation and income distribution. This approach is particularly interesting for developing countries which often lack the expertise or data to produce good national accounts and are thus deprived of a vital policy-making tool

The core of the book analyzes the six most widely adopted strategies of development, namely, monetarism, the open economy, industrialization, the green revolution or agriculture-led develop-ment, redistributive strategies of development and socialist strategies. The strengths and weaknesses of each strategy are assessed and then compared. Evaluation of the strategies is based on their performance as regards resource utilization and the level of income; savings, investment and growth; human capital formation; poverty and inequality; the role of the state; and participation, democracy and freedom. The book contains a blend of economic theory, statistical evidence and numerous country case studies.

by Colm Foy
(
Book
)
15 editions published in 1998 in English and French and held by 419 WorldCat member libraries worldwide Based on scenarios produced by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and the OECD Development Centre, the authors consider ways in which long-term Asian growth can be consolidated to the benefit of the global economy as a whole.

The ladder of competitiveness how to climb it
by Orsetta Causa
(
)
11 editions published in 2006 in English and French and held by 377 WorldCat member libraries worldwide Tables of national competitiveness give an easily comparable ranking of the winners and losers of global economic competition, but they do not explain why the poor countries are four times less productive than the rich ones or why some rich countries are twice as productive as others. Using empirical data from over 50 countries, this book shows how even small differences in a number of factors combine to boost or block productivity. Governments need such information to set priorities. Investors need it too, and two new rankings are proposed as alternatives to a simple comparison of industrial productivity. The first, called the investor ranking, is based on infrastructure, human capital and total factor productivity. The second, exporter ranking, is for investors whose prime concern is for a production platform well-integrated into world trade. Combining the new rankings with a more traditional one produces three groups of countries, termed balanced, high potential, and vulnerable. Group membership reserves some surprises: you may be rich, but that does not mean you are not vulnerable.--Publisher's description
