Question

The Industrial Revolution Past and Future Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis.pdf For this Module discussion assignment, read the article then answer the following questions: 1. When did England begin to experience sustained economic growth? 2. Which important data set does Lucas refer to? 3. GDP per capita has grown dramatically since 1960. How is this possible when population has more than doubled since then? 4. How do economists estimate the GDP per capita of societies in the distant past (e.g. Chinese farmers in the 1100's)? 5. Try to limit your answer to the next question to a short paragraph. Prior to the onset of sustained growth, a large fraction of total income went to a very small set of wealthy landowners. These landowners often contributed to the development of high culture through their patronage of art, architecture, crafts, and in some cases mathematics and philosophy. However, this accumulation of wealth held by landowners did not translate into noticeable gains in the labor productivity of most workers. Why is this? Since the Industrial Revolution, what factors have lead to increases in labor productivity? What are the consequences of higher labor productivity?
