Abstract
The positive relationship between the tertiary sector's share of emplo yment and real per capita GNP, argued by Colin Clark to be a sign of e conomic progress, was reversed in much of the world in the decade betw een 1980 and 1990. This note describes the shift and explores the reas ons for the reversal.
