To estimate the coefficients of the ARDL model, Feasible Generalized Least Squares (FGLS) is utilized within the Three-Stage Least Squares (3SLS) and the nonstandard Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) frameworks.

Horizontal export diversification into completely new export sectors may generate positive externalities on the rest of the economy as export oriented sectors gain from dynamic learning activities due to contacts with foreign purchasers and exposure to international competition. Vertical diversification out of primary into manufactured exports is also associated with growth since primary export sectors generally do not exhibit strong spillovers. Yet there have been remarkably few empirical investigations into the link between export diversification and growth. This paper attempts to examine the hypothesis that export diversification is linked to economic growth via externalities of learning-by-doing and learning-by-exporting fostered by competition in world markets. The diversification-led growth hypothesis is tested by estimating an augmented Cobb-Douglas production function on the basis of annual time series data from Chile. Based on the theory of cointegration three types of statistical methodologies are used: the Johansen trace test, a multivariate error-correction model and the dynamic OLS procedure. Given structural changes in the Chilean economy, time series techniques considering structural breaks are applied. The estimation results suggest that export diversification plays an important role in economic growth."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1080/00036840500426983"],["dc.identifier.isi","000240121100010"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/30035"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.relation.issn","0003-6846"],["dc.title","What does export diversification do for growth?

Specifically, we analyze the relationship between per-capita income and foreign aid for a maximum of 131 recipient countries over the 1960 to 2006 period. We employ annual data and 5-year averages and, contrary to the previous literature, carefully examine the time-series properties of the data. The previous literature overlooks the non-existence of a long-run relationship between aid and growth and the presence of autocorrelated error terms. To address those problems, we apply panel time-series techniques (panel unit-root tests, panel cointegration tests, and panel dynamic feasible generalized least-squares estimation [DFGLS]). Estimations with DFGLS show that aid has an insignificant or minute negative significant impact on per-capita income. This holds for countries with both above- and below-average aid-to-GDP ratios, for different levels of human development, different income levels and different regions of the world. We also find that aid has a significantly positive (although small) impact on investment, but a significant negative impact on domestic savings (crowding out) and the real exchange rate (appreciation)."],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/14886"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.relation.conference","Jahrestagung des Vereins für Socialpolitik"],["dc.relation.eventend","2010"],["dc.relation.eventlocation","Kiel"],["dc.relation.eventstart","2010"],["dc.relation.ispartof","Beiträge zur Jahrestagung des Vereins für Socialpolitik 2010: Ökonomie der Familie - Session: Effectiveness of Foreign Aid"],["dc.title","Foreign Aid and Its Effect on Per-Capita Income (Growth) in Recipient Countries: Pitfalls and Findings from a Time Series Perspective"],["dc.type","conference_paper"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
