| Tiivistelmä: | It is often argued that technological spillovers or other externalities associated with exporters or trade are sector-specific, yet trade and growth linkages are typically examined as the level of macroeconomic aggregates. This paper extends the analysis to another level of specificity, analyzing the commodity composition of trade. This paper addresses three interrelated sets of questions. First, have Asian countries exhibited unusually high exports in particular industries? Has their commodity composition of exports been unusually concentrated? Second, has specialization in particular sectors emerged unusually rapidly in the case of Asian countries? |
