Abstract :
This paper decomposes OECD convergence into contributions from sectoral productivity growth and contributions from employment shift across sectors. While productivity growth in services and agriculture contributed significantly to convergence, the contributions from employment shift and productivity growth in manufacturing are statistically insignificant.
