Two groups of papers are presented in The Service Sector: Productivity and Growth. The first group is devoted to the analysis of the interdependence among the service and the industrial sectors of the economy and to offer some evidence about the development of the service sector in the recent years. The second group of contributions instead is mainly concerned with the problem of the possible differences in productivity among market services and manufacturing industries. These studies are mainly applied and related to EEC and North American countries. They offer an updated view and present evidence that lead to conclusions often quite different from those arising from previous analysis.
