Abstract

This paper describes a simple method for using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) in the estimation of technical change, as well as efficiency and intensity in input use. It provides estimates of manufacturing production technology and identifies changes in the efficiency of input use in the UK since the mid-1960s. The analysis provides new insight regarding the relevance of public capital for UK manufacturing.
