| Tiivistelmä: | This article presents a simple model of the world economy in which productivity gains in manufacturing are responsible for the global trend of manufacturing decline. However, in a cross-section of countries, faster productivity gains in manufacturing do not necessarily imply faster declines in manufacturing. This article tries to draw attention to the common pitfall of using cross-country evidence to test a closed economy model. One needs a world economy model where the interdependence across countries is explicitly spelled out in order to understand cross-country patterns of structural change. |
