Title:

The Great Recession: Sectors, Efficiency, Technological innovation, Capital deepening, and Labour mobility

Date: Monday, 10 May
Time: 12:10-12:55

Abstract

We propose a new decomposition of aggregate productivity growth that accounts for sectoral efficiency and technology changes as well as capital deepening and provide new evidence on the sources of productivity growth in OECD countries.

Extended Abstract

In this paper, we analyze aggregate labor productivity of developed economies in three periods: (i) years before (2002-2006), (ii) leading to (2006-2009), and (iii) recovery from the global financial crisis (GFC) (2009-2014). First, we decompose aggregate productivity growth into components attributable to intra-sectoral productivity growth effect (within component) and effect of employment share reallocation that is split into the static and dynamic components. We use data for 10 sectors from 26 countries. We confirm that the within component is the key driver of labor productivity growth in good years and in the recovery period. However, we find that it is the major culprit in years leading to GFC. We, therefore, study the factors that affect the within component by employing a non-parametric production frontier approach to conceptually decompose the within component into components attributable to efficiency change, technological change, and capital deepening. The retrenchment in technological progress followed by efficiency losses plays on average the most important role in explaining the collapse of productivity growth in years leading to GFC. Efficiency losses were highest in ICT, manufacturing, construction, utilities, and wholesale. In the recovery period, technological progress has played the largest role in manufacturing, finance, information, and wholesale. In particular, the rate of technological progress in manufacturing has surpassed its level in the pre-crisis period. Productivity is, however, still mired by efficiency losses with exceptions of the agriculture and construction sectors. Capital deepening kept on driving up productivity in all periods. Capital deepening contribution has been especially prominent in the recovery period. To our knowledge, this is the first study that uses sectoral data on capital to analyze the role of sectoral dynamics in terms of efficiency, technology, and capital deepening in aggregate productivity growth. Doing so allows to identify the relative role of these three factors to productivity growth.

MMTC Research Seminar presented by Christian Sandström

Aluminium är vanligtvis motståndskraftig mot korrosion, men det stämmer inte helt när man jobbar med aluminiumlegeringar. Legeringsämnen läggs till aluminium (Al) för att öka den mekaniska prestandan, men kan skada metallens hållbarhet.

I det här webbinaret kommer vi att fokusera på att förstå hur legeringsämnen påverkar korrosionsbeständigheten hos Al-legeringar och vad vi bör tänka på när vi väljer och testar en Al-legering.

Efter att ha tagit del av webbinariet kommer du veta mer om:

• Hur legeringens kemiska sammansättning påverkar korrosionsbeständigheten.

• Vilka de möjliga nedbrytningsmekanismerna är för Al-legeringar.

• Hur tillverkningsprocesser påverkar hållbarheten hos Al-legeringar.

Climate collaboration & the role of Communication

Guest speaker: Otto Hedenmo, Doctoral Student, School of Education and Communication (Jönköping Univiersity)

Collaboration between different actors such as, regions, municipalities, civil society organizations, businesses and schools, is important for the transition to a sustainable society and communication plays an important role in this collaboration. Otto Hedemo from Media and Communication Studies at JU will give a presentation about the topic and afterwards all participants are welcomed to take part in a conversation about what can make this kind of communication successful.

Sustainability Conversations is a series of digital lunch events that focuses on the transition to a more sustainable society. The ambition of the event series is to provide a platform where guest speakers, students, researchers, and an interested general public can share knowledge, experiences and thoughts about sustainability in a multidiciplinary environment. The events are organized by Jönköping University Sustainability Network (JUSN).

Professor Nina Bonderup

In this talk, I shall address a basic question in education:
How can students learn to put knowledge, developed in one context, to use in other contexts?

This question poses a major challenge for the educational systems of today because of the following conundrum: in contemporary society, people are required to traverse a range of different settings with different competence demands, and they often have to utilize knowledge across these different settings. However, several strands of research (e.g. practice theory, situated learning, embodied cognition) join in pointing out that knowledge is situated, i.e. acquires form and content from the context in which it is learnt.

Transfer of knowledge across settings is therefore no straightforward matter. It involves transformation of the situatedly learned knowledge so that it fits the new setting. Learning to do so emerges as crucial for students of today, and facilitating transformation becomes a key task for many educational systems.

In the talk, I present research on knowledge transformation, on design principles to support it, and on the implementation of specific learning designs in educational practice. The talk draws on the results of the recent project Designing for situated knowledge in a world of change (2015-2020), financed by the Independent Research Fund Denmark.
