Developments in the Production of Services -- Appendices I-IX -- Bibliography -- Index"The slow-down in economic growth and the rise in unemployment in the 1970s revived some of the uncertainties experienced by industrialized economies during the inter-war period. After more than a decade of stagnation, the period of sustained growth in the thirty years following the Second World War now seems increasingly to have been an exceptional phase in an overall development process still dominated by wide fluctuations in economic growth rates. Slow Growth and the Service Economy examines what it means to live in a period of economic recession and analyses social patterns in response to the slowing down of financial and economic growth."--Bloomsbury Publishing.Bloomsbury Academic collections : economics.Economic developmentService industriesBusiness studies: generalEconomic development.Service industries.338.4/7Petit Pascal127696UtOrBLWUtOrBLWUkLoBPBOOK9910828958703321Slow growth and the service economy2764289UNINA
