ABSTRACT

To evaluate the factor productivity in the pre-crisis economy the econometric models were built. From the general level determination of the labor productivity models of 77.8%, the share of capital is 67%, the share of human capital — 8.4%, the share of new technologies — 1.4%. Effect of changes in the level of human capital on productivity surpasses the effect of changes in capital and the degree of diffusion of new technologies. In the pre-crisis period, the influence of the main production factors on the labor productivity was significantly decreased. The new tecnology have ceased to influence on productivity in general. The recession factor productivity in the country in the period 2010- 2013 may due to the formation under the impact of the adopted laws for the economic growth adverse institutional environment.

KEYWORDS

Цель работы — исследование динамики факторной производительности в предкризисной экономике России. Проблеме производительности и экономического роста посвящены многочисленные эмпирические исследования. Эмпирические исследования производительности и роста проводятся с использованием данных по странам мира и регионам; проверяется большой набор факторов. Эмпирические исследования факторов экономического роста, как правило, основаны на построении линейных регрессионных моделей, в которые включают человеческий капитал, инновации, политические, социальные и другие факторы. Во многих исследованиях используют перекрестные данные стран, регионов. Исследуется влияние человеческого капитала, новых технологий и институциональных факторов, причем результаты исследований показывают, что влияние человеческого капитала, влияние новых технологий не всегда положительно [1–12].

Существенный интерес представляет оценка влияния производственных факторов, включая человеческий капитал и новые технологии на величину производительности труда в современной России в период после кризиса 2008–2009 гг. При этом представляется обоснованным при выполнении исследования использовать подход, основанный на моделировании с использованием стандартных эконометрических моделей и перекрестных региональных данных.
