Structure of the Presentation
• Part I: Export Composition: is this the missing ingredient?
• Part II: Innovation: the critical agenda
• Part III: Management quality as a missing complement
Empirical concerns of policy makers about export composition
1. Yes, Externalities dictate that market will not generate optimal basket
2. How do we measure these externalities?
3. Doesn’t the whole world see the same benefit and drive the price down? (GE)
• Interindustry spillovers, assymetries
• Should we look for safe rents, too? Natural Resources
• More generally, must think of demand side as well
4. Do externalities necessarily come with a good, or does it matter how we produce it?
• Heterogeneity, Heterogeneity, Heterogeneity
In practice, measurement of MEs is difficult, so we take shortcuts
• Natural resources
• Low productivity (Smith, Matsuyama, Sachs), few Externalities
• Rent seeking
• High productivity goods
• Rich Country Goods (Rodrik, Hausmann)
• High tech (Lall) high inter-industry MEs
Empirically, there is no resource curse
• In growth regressions • Minerals are good: Davis (1995), Sala-i-Martin et al. (2004), Stijns
(2005), Brunnschweiler (2008, 2009)
• Conditional on education (above 2 years of schooling): Bravo-Ortega & De Gregorio (2007)
• Existing resource curse findings fragile: Lederman & Maloney (2007, 2008)
• [Also, Jacob Viner and Douglass North years ago…]

Leamer Measure: Net Exports of
NR/Worker
Resource Abundant Resource Scarce
Maloney 2007
Does It Matter What We Export? Hausmann, Hwang, Rodrik (2007) • Model- broadly inter-industry spillover
• Country should produce the highest productivity good within its CA
• Empirics:
• PRODY= avg. income of countries producing good
• EXPY= income value of our export basket
• Similar to Lall (2000)
• Find higher EXPY correlated with higher growth.
Caveats • GE critique again?
• Rents- higher where rich countries already are?
• Not generally the case- Nokia and TVs
• If easy to move into these goods, then barriers to entry/rents low
• Empirical findings muddy
• Animals, electrical machinery same PRODY
Again, high degree of heterogeneity

Goods or Tasks: Does China really export the iPOD?
“..the electronic components we
make in Singapore require less
skill than that required by
barbers or cooks, involving
mostly repetitive manual
operations”

Finance Singapore (1972)

missed the 2nd Industrial Revolution

Innovative Capacity vs Income 1900
Current literature focusing on R&D is not credible...
US firm level/industry data- social returns
Grilliches and Lichtenberg (1984) 71%
Terleckyj 1980, Scherer (1982 ) >100%
Griffith, Redding, Van Reenen (2004) 57%
Jones and Williams (1998) 28%
X country
Coe and Helpman (1995) G7 123%
Van Pottlesberghe and Lichtenberg (2001) G7 68%
…And imply social rates of return far above private
Jones and Williams (1998): US should quadruple investment in RD
Estimated returns to R&D are very high…
…and get higher with distance from the frontier Two Faces of R&D (Cohen and Levinthal 1989) Invention
Learning\Catch-up
Poor countries should have much greater returns
Griffith, Redding, Van Reenen (2004)
Dist. Frontier RoR R&D
USA -.18 57%
UK -.53 77%
Italy -.73 88%
What should the rate of return be for Korea (-1.33),
Malaysia (-2.28), Turkey (-2.5), Indonesia (-3.74)? 200%? 300%?
But poor countries do generally less R&D than rich countries…Why?
