Abstract

Issue 50 marks the IPM's 25th anniversary — having published 350 articles since 2000 — and the transition to a new editorial team (Stephen Tapp joins as Managing Editor, replacing Andrew Sharpe who founded the journal). The issue covers five broad themes: GenAI and productivity (Baily et al.); the productivity J-curve and digitalization from an international perspective (Bounfour et al.); two articles on the U.S. manufacturing productivity slowdown (Gordon & Ryu; Lashkari & Pearce); health care productivity measurement (Ackley et al.); and Canada's high cost of living (Lavoie).
