Is the United States losing its productivity advantage?
Amiti, Mary; Stiroh, Kevin J.
(2007-09)
Strikingly high rates of labor productivity growth in China, India, and other emerging economies have prompted concerns that U.S. workers and firms are losing ground to their competitors in world markets. A closer look at the evidence, however, suggests that rapid foreign productivity growth will bring gains as well as losses to the U.S. economy. Some import-competing firms may be compelled to restructure or leave the market, but consumers will benefit from lower import prices and more import varieties, and U.S. exporters may gain access to cheaper intermediate products from abroad.

Ores and scores: two cases of how competition led to productivity \\"miracles.\\"
Chatterjee, Satyajit
(2005-01)
Although iron ore mining and public schools may seem to have nothing in common, you may be surprised. Recent research suggests that the labor productivity of ore producers and teachers may respond similarly to competitive pressure. To date, most macroeconomic research on the determinants of labor productivity has generally focused on variables such as capital stock per worker, technology, the quality of the workforce, and laws and regulations that govern production. However, this conventional view may leave something out: the degree of competitive pressure faced by a production unit. In ...
