| description |
This paper examines the impact on total
factor productivity of North-South and South-South
trade-related research and development (R&D) spillovers.
It is the first to do so at the industry level for
developing countries. North-South and South-South R&D
flows are constructed based on industry-specific R&D in
the North, North-South and South-South trade patterns, and
input-output relations in the South. The main findings are:
1) North-South and South-South R&D flows have a positive
impact on total factor productivity, though the former is
larger. 2) R&D-intensive industries benefit mainly from
North-South R&D flows while low R&D-intensive
industries benefit mainly from South-South R&D flows.
These results have implications for dynamic comparative
advantage and for the dynamics of North-South and
South-South regional integration. |
