Information Technology and the Data Jungle

Rosemary D Marcuss

Business Economics, 2006, vol. 41, issue 1, 17-19

Abstract: This stroll down memory lane highlights the changes brought about by technology that enable economists to process more data faster than could have been imagined when Marcuss began her career in 1968. The challenges of the “data jungle” remain, however. There must be an ongoing effort to know precisely what each economic-statistic measures, why it matters, and to whom. NABE has been, and will continue to be, in the forefront of this effort.Business Economics (2006) 41, 17–19; doi:10.2145/20060102
