- W3123949069 abstract "In the late middle ages, the Centre-North of Italy was one of the most advanced areas in Europe. Its economy was highly diversified by the standard of the time but agriculture still accounted for a substantial part of the total employment and GDP-about 60-70 and 45-60 per cent respectively.1 From the Renaissance onwards, Italy lost its leadership, and in the nineteenth century it was clearly lagging behind the industrializing regions of Western Europe. Modern industry was almost non-existent; agriculture was backward and unable to adopt modern techniques.2 From the end of the century, Italy experienced the process of modern economic growth, which brought it back into the group of advanced countries, and, as elsewhere in the developed world, caused the size of the agricultural workforce to shrink to less than 5 per cent of the total at the end of the twentieth century. Trends in agricultural production and productivity are crucial to understanding the prosperity, fall, and recovery of the Italian economy, but they are still poorly known. Before 1861-the year of the political unification of Italy--data on production and employment are scarce, and refer to few farms and small areas. Even the standard series of national accounts, available since 1861, are highly controversial. This article aims to fill this gap in historical knowledge by presenting new series of agricultural production and output per worker from the year 1000 until 2000. Section I sketches out the standard demand-side method to estimate agricultural production and output per worker and puts forward a preliminary estimate of long-run trends. Section II presents new price indices (also separately for agricultural and non-agricultural goods) and urban and rural wages from 1300 to 1860. These indices are used in section III to estimate per caput and total production. Section IV deals with trends in agricultural employment, while section V discusses the long-run evolution in output per worker. Section VI sums up our interpretation with the help of a simple geometric model, and section VII sets the Italian case in a comparative perspective. This reconstruction refers to the Central and Northern part of the country, from the" @default.
