摘要: |
新古典主义与结构主义均未能很好地解释二战以来发展中国家经济增长的差异。林
毅夫认为发展中国家的产业结构只有遵循其要素禀赋结构时才符合比较优势,经济
也才最富有竞争力。本文对技术选择指数进行了修正,并基于95个发展中国家的面
板数据对“林毅夫经济增长命题”进行检验。结果显示,发展中国家的经济增长率
与技术选择指数存在着倒“U”型关系,即在给定要素禀赋结构条件下存在着最优的
产业结构,从而为“林毅夫经济增长命题”的存在提供了经验证据 |

Economic Growth Accounting under the Framework of New Structuralism:An Empirical Analysis of Panel Data from 95 Developing Countries |

Abstract: |
Both neo-classicism and structuralism fail to thoroughly interpret the difficulties among developing countries in the performance of economic growth since World WarⅡ. The practice of economic policies based on
these theories is mostly a failure. It is believed by Lin Yifu that only when the industrial structure of developing countries complies with the structure of factor endowment can they conform to the comparative advantages and the
economy is the most competitive. The indexes of technological choice are amended in this paper, in which“Lin Yifu’s proposition of economic growth”is verified based on the panel data of 95 developing countries. An inverted“U-shaped”relation exists in the economic growth rate and the indexes of technological choice of developing countries. In other words, an optimal industrial structure exists under the given factor endowment structure, which provides empirical evidence to the existence of “Lin Yifu’s proposition of economic growth”. |
Key words: factor endowment structure industrial structure economic growth technological choice index comparative advantage |
