Growth and export expansion in developing countriessome empirical evidence

Resumo

This paper presents additional empirical evidence demonstrating a strong cross-country association between export performance and GNP growth. This suggest that countries which neglect their export sectors through discriminatory economic policies are likely to have settle for lower rates of economic growth as a result. While in our treatment it has been assumed that export performance reflects export related economic policies, a growing body of empirical literature supports this contention. Consequently, economic policies entailing appropriate price incentives for exports appear to take on a central importance in the economic growth.
