Closing the British Competitiveness Gap

Walter Eltis and David Higham

Chapter 3 in Britain, Europe and EMU, 2000, pp 52-72 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Improving national competitiveness has become a key policy theme of the 1990s. The UK government published White Papers on competitiveness in 1994, 1995, 1996 and 1998. The United States, Germany, Canada, Australia and Spain are some of the other countries that have published similar reports. The European Commission has followed up its 1993 White Paper entitled Growth, Competitiveness, Employment with the establishment of a high-level Competitiveness Advisory Group.
