Trade flows revisited: further evidence on globalisation
利用最新Penn World Tables数据,研究全球化与区域主义在世界经济中的相对影响,发现1990年代以来全球化动力超过区域主义,但在去全球化背景下区域主义可能重新主导。
We consider the relative effects of globalisation and regionalism in the context of recent developments in the world economy. We extend and advance the work of Chortareas and Pelagidis using the recently updated Penn World Tables data. This allows consideration of the recent 'golden era' of globalisation, great moderation and the 'Washington consensus'. We produce evidence that corroborates the findings of Chortareas and Pelagidis. We find, however, that in the 1990s and in the new millennium globalisation dynamics outpace regionalism. Nevertheless, regionalism displays resilience and in a potential de-globalisation context it is more likely to dominate over globalism. Copyright The Author 2011.
