Abstract

On a long-term assessment, the economic situation in the industrial countries has grown more difficult.

High labour costs are frequently cited as the underlying cause of these changes. This article sets out to counter (or to complement) this supposition by directing the spotlight on to what has now become a substantial decline in capital productivity in the industrial countries.
