Measuring Economic Sustainability and Progress

Edición de la obra Measuring Economic Sustainability and Progress

This volume is the latest in a long series of Studies in Income and Wealth and earlier NBER publications dating back to the 1930s that have played a key role in the development of the U.S. National Accounts and those of other nations. Work in this volume shows advances within a national accounts framework, and so contributes to other national and international initiatives that aim at developing better indicators of material well-being and the quality of life. The papers in this volume address key gaps in our statistical coverage revealed by the recession and the period leading up to the recession.
