Learning‐by‐doing, variable elasticity of substitution and economic growth in Japan, 1878–1939

“…These data are from Fei and Ranis [1974] and cover the period 1878-1939. The output, capital stock and investment statistics used are in yen at 1934-36 prices and the employment statistics are the number of employees in a given year.…”

Division of labour in the production structure and mass production in pre‐war Japan: Lessons from the metal and machinery sectors in Osaka City

“…Enhancing total factor productivity through a more profound division of labour among firms could result in capital shallowing. Under circumstances of a constant wage for surplus labour, theoretically, the Hicks‐neutral technological change can augment labour productivity and consequently lead to capital shallowing (Fei & Ranis, 1963). In the 1930s, the accelerated dissemination of the mass production system in the metal and machinery sectors of Osaka City was primarily driven by heightened outsourcing and subcontracting practices rather than a surge in capital investment.…”

Influence Mechanism Analysis of the Spatial Evolution of Inter-Provincial Population Flow in China Based on Epidemic Prevention and Control

“…Most of the literature explores population mobility models from macro and micro perspectives. The full employment theory model (Cairns, 1936), dual economic development model (Lewis, 1954), Lewis-Ranis-Fei Jinghan model (Fei, 1963), Todaro model (Todaro, 1969), and push-pull model (Bogue, 1959;Lee, 1966;Piore, 1979) are all macro models. They are all used to explain population mobility based on the urban-rural income gap.…”
