Note: Arrows begin in 2002 and end in 2009. The arrows for each region are median values. The dot is the median value for the referenced group. Ireland is excluded from net debt position as its data are distorted because international mutual funds hosted by Ireland are recorded as positive net debt, even though these resources are not related to the domestic economy.

Note: The figure shows the extent of economic integration. The vertical axis combines in one index of dissimilarity three indicators of nominal integration—volatility of exchange rates, convergence in inflation rates, and convergence in interest rates. The horizontal axis does the same with three indicators of real integration—extent of synchronization in business cycles measured by indexes of industrial production, trade integration, and per capita income.

Productivity growth—not exactly what was expected
Figure 6b: Much of Europe is becoming more productive, but the south has fallen behind
(labor productivity growth, 2002–08, annual percentage increase)
Note: The period considered varies: Belgium and Norway (2003–08), Greece (2003–07), and the Czech Republic, France, Latvia, Romania, and the United Kingdom (2002–07). The three lines show average values for countries covered by each line. Expected growth for EU15 South is obtained by computing gaps in productivity levels between EU15 South and each of the other two groups and then applying these shares to the difference in growth between the first (that is., EFTA, EU15 North, and EU15 Continental) and the third (EU12) groups.

Europe specializes in old sectors, the US in new
Figure 11: The United States specializes in younger, more R&D intensive products
(relative technological advantage and R&D efforts by young and old innovation leaders in the United States, Europe and the rest of the world)
Note: R&D intensity is measured as the ratio of R&D spending to total sales, for firms established after 1975 (young leading innovators or “Yollies”) or before 1975 (“Ollies”). The relative technological advantage is calculated as the share of each region or country (say Europe) in the R&D of a particular sector (say the Internet) relative to the share of Europe in world R&D; values greater than 1 indicate the region is technology specialized in the sector.

Global green growth
• “Leakage” of European green incentives
• Chinese solar PV production increased 20 fold between 2006-2010 (> 90%
for export)
• How can EU12 and neighborhood countries take advantage of
policy induced green growth opportunities?
• 3 trillion Euro market by 2020
• Europe must focus on R&D, innovation, high end manufacturing
(“Green Apples”)
46
Keeping what has been achieved
• Restarting the Convergence Machine: Services• Facilitate the trade in business services• Strengthen regulatory coordination for finance
• Rebuilding Brand Europe: Productivity• Restart the convergence machine• Improve enterprise where productivity growth has slowed• Download “killer apps” of innovation from the United States
• Remaining the Lifestyle Superpower: Demography• Restart the Convergence Machine• Rebuild Brand Europe• Make labor markets more competitive• Make government more efficient, or make it smaller
