SUMMARY The authors investigate the question whether there exist ‘convergence’ or ‘divergence’ tendencies with regard to sectoral input output‐structures. They apply the model of two‐factor analysis of variance with one factor referring to the influence of economic systems the other to intertemporal changes; the interaction between these factors is interpreted as the dynamic system effect. The data base are input output‐tables from thirteen Western and five Eastern countries for years around 1959 and 1965. Significant influences of the economic system can be found only in very few sectors. As to the dynamic system effect many sectors show converging and diverging patterns. An interesting fact is that system‐specific influences are obviously far more significant in output structures, where the relations can be influenced more easily by administrative procedures than in the input structures which are mainly determined technologically.
