dc.description.abstract | In this study we examine productivity growth and their relationship with international
openness in Latin American countries over the period 1980¿2006. Overall results on
productivity indicate a stagnation process for the entire period 1986¿2006. The
decomposition of productivity into catching up and technical change reveals that the first
have a stagnation process and the latter worsening. Analyzing the relationship between
productivity growth and international openness we find different patterns for both
methodologies parametric (Arellano¿Bond estimator) and nonparametric (GAM) and for
both measures of international openness merchandise trade (% of GDP) and
(export+imports)/GDP. In particular in a parametric way, although the shape is curvilinear
for both models the relationship is positive inverted U¿shaped in the first case and Ushaped
in second. | en_US |
