Issue 35 contains eight articles in two individual articles plus two symposia. The individual articles cover employment and productivity puzzles in U.S. manufacturing and the role of demand and digitization in the productivity slowdown. The first symposium (four articles) explains slower productivity growth in Canada since 2000, based on CEA sessions organized by CSLS and the Productivity Partnership. The second symposium (two articles) examines the global productivity slowdown from Australian and cross-country perspectives.

Le numéro 35 contient huit articles en deux articles individuels et deux symposiums. Les articles individuels portent sur les énigmes de l’emploi et de la productivité dans le secteur manufacturier américain et sur le rôle de la demande et de la numérisation dans le ralentissement de la productivité. Le premier symposium (quatre articles) explique le ralentissement de la productivité au Canada depuis 2000, fondé sur des sessions de l’ACE organisées par le CSLS et le Partenariat pour la productivité. Le second symposium (deux articles) examine le ralentissement mondial de la productivité dans des perspectives australiennes et transnationales.
