A New Economy? The Changing Role of Innovation and Information Technology in Growth |
What is driving recent growth in OECD countries? Why are their
levels of GDP per capita no longer converging? These and other questions are
addressed in the study A New Economy? The Changing Role of Innovation and
Information Technology in Growth. The study examines the role of innovation
and information and communications technologies in recent growth performance of
OECD member countries, including Canada. Findings show that success requires a
range of complementary factors that support the innovation-intensive growth
exemplified by new information and communication technologies such as the
Internet and Internet applications like electronic commerce. Parts of the study
are devoted to a look at the strong performance of the "new economy" in the
United States, but other sections, tables and charts provide for comparisons
between OECD Member countries. While this study is far from exhaustive, it
represents an important step in understanding the conditions under which
economies flourish. Aussi disponible en français. Published by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, 2000. 922000031P $32.00 |
