Abstract

This is a review article by Andrew Sharpe from the Centre for the Study of Living Standards of Angus Maddison's path-breaking new book, The World Economy: A Millennial Perspective. The article summarizes Maddison's key findings in a number of areas, with particular emphasis on his estimates of population, real GDP, and real GDP per capita for very long periods, going back to 0 AD for all regions, to 1000 for most major countries, and to 1950 for literally all countries of the world. The article concludes that the book will be required reading for all economists interested in long-run economic growth trends and that Maddison's estimates, while by no means definitive, will stimulate debate for years to come.
《世界经济:一个千禧年的视角》,作者:安格斯·麦迪森
这是生活水平研究中心的安德鲁·夏普对安格斯·麦迪森开创性的新书《世界经济:千禧年视角》的评论文章。这篇文章总结了麦迪逊在许多领域的主要发现,特别强调了他对人口、实际GDP和长期人均实际GDP的估计,所有地区都可以追溯到公元0年,大多数主要国家都可以追溯到公元1000年,世界上所有国家都可以追溯到1950年。这篇文章的结论是,所有对长期经济增长趋势感兴趣的经济学家都必须阅读这本书,麦迪森的估计虽然不是决定性的,但将在未来几年引发辩论。
