信息技术革命无疑是人类经济史上一次意义深远的技术进步 ,但是统计上的观察表明 ,自 2 0世纪六七十年代美国爆发信息技术革命以来 ,经济不仅没有得到更快的增长 ,而且与此前的年份相比 ,劳动生产率、全要素生产率增长水平反而呈现出一种下降的趋势。理论上 ,一般把这种现象称作为“生产率悖论”。本文试图对这一悖论的几种解释进行考察和评析 ,以期为国内相关研究提供一个理论基础。 The information technology revolution is undoubtedly a far-reaching technological advance in the history of humankind. However, statistical observations show that not only has the economy not achieved any rapid growth since the information technology revolution in the 1960s and 1970s in the United States, Compared with the years, labor productivity and total factor productivity growth but showed a downward trend. In theory, this phenomenon is generally called “paradox of productivity.” This article attempts to examine and comment on several explanations of this paradox in order to provide a theoretical basis for domestic research.
