Abstract: No study is yet available showing the structural change of the Bangladesh economy, based on growth decomposition. However, similar studies have been undertaken elsewhere. For example, Torii and Fukasaku (1984) investigated the economic development and changes in linkage structure of Korea and Japan, grouping the manufacturing sub-sectors into 25 common sectors. They showed how the volume of increased output between the two periods could be attributed to various factors i.e., domestic final demand, volume of exports, volume of imports for intermediate inputs, volume of imports for final demand and input-output coefficient effects. They further provided separately the direct and indirect effects of backward linkages and forward linkages for the two economies and also showed how the linkages are interconnected. Kubo and Robinson (1984) made a comparative analysis of eight economies (i.e., Colombia, Mexico, Israel, Japan, The Republic of Korea, Taiwan, Turkey and Norway) across three continents to identify the sources of industrial growth and structural change by consolidating each economy into 24 common sectors.
