Has the revival of the Andean Pact
affected the industrial growth of Bolivia, Colombia, and
Ecuador? Has this regional agreement had greater effects tha
unilateral liberalization? The author explores two potential
channels for industrial growth: scale effects and variety of
imported intermediate inputs. She analyzes data from 2
countries (classified at the three-digit level of ISIC)
across three countries. The results show that: 10 The
variety of intermediate inputs originating from nonregional
partners has a significant positive impact on growth in a
handful of industries. 2) The effect of regional variety is
at best mixed. This lends preliminary support to the
argument that unilateral liberalization will have a positive
impact on output growth through the channel of imported
intermediate inputs. There is significant homogeneity in
industry-level returns to scale. Moreover, in the three
Andean countries studied, cross-country scale effects were
small and negative. Therefore, the three countries should
not expect large or across-the-board gains through scale
effects from their regional arrangement. |
