In their influential study on productivity growth at the sector-level, Bernard and Jones (1996, BJ) observed convergence of aggregate labor productivity levels in 14 highly developed countries in 1970-1987. They found evidence that this could be attributed to convergence in services productivity rather than in manufacturing. The main question this paper addresses is thus whether this result can be generalized to a broader set of countries.
