Abstract:
This paper measures the extent and nature of technological change in Northern Ireland Manufacturing. In certain cases the results obtained are compared with those for other economies. The subject dealt with is one of obvious importance as technical change has, and continues to play, a major role in the modern economy. This was highlighted in an early paper by Solow whereby 90 per cent of the improvement in output per man-hour in the US 1909-49 was attributed to technical change.
