摘要：The recent economic crisis has affected not only the most advanced countries but also the less advanced ones in the European region. A vast amount of literature has focused on the explanation and impact of the economic crisis at the macroeconomic level, with less emphasis, however, on sectoral developments in relation to output, productivity and employment growth. Within this context, this book is a very timely contribution to economic sector development, from an international perspective, providing unique cross-country comparisons. Mas and Stehrer have collected publications that explore growth patterns at the economy and industry level from a long-run perspective in the EU-25 countries and the US, Japan and Korea. More specifically, data for 1970-2004 are available for the 'old' EU-15 countries and for the US. Series from 1995 onwards are available for the new EU member states which joined the EU on 1 May 2004 (EU-10). Due to data limitations, the coverage differs across countries, industries and variables.
