Claim43b8296fc29e54c3c62b3e698ba53c0a54f950fc1fa694e4646b6c5bc2af15d4·Paper reconstruction — Dustin Avent-Holt & Alysha Bailey (2024), What counts as productive? Redefining ‘producers’ in economic discourse, 1890–1960

Claim

The authors' analysis finds that economists instead came to converge on productive activity as utility paid for on a market, while national accounting statistics rendered unpaid labour activities invisible.

Evidence (1)
