Reconstructing The Past: The Measurement Of Aggregate Product

Stefano Fenoaltea ()

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: This paper summarizes the author’s considerations on the measurement of a national economy’s historical aggregate product. Given the sources from which we can start, and the objective we wish to reach, the proper path follows logically; the extant corpus of historical national accounts seems to follow a very different path, uninformed by due reflection.
