abstract: 'In the last decades, the East Asian region has experienced important
|
||||
|
||||
economic transformations that have led to important growth and economic
|
||||
|
||||
development. A crucial part of this growth has been due to the
|
||||
|
||||
contribution of the foreign sector, and more specifically the trade in
|
||||
|
||||
manufactures, establishing a model of economic growth based largely on
|
||||
|
||||
exports of this type of goods.
|
||||
|
||||
The Spanish foreign sector has also undergone important changes in
|
||||
|
||||
recent decades, although the need to expand foreign markets and the
|
||||
|
||||
improvement of the technological intensity of manufactured exports are
|
||||
|
||||
two pending tasks to be able to compete more efficiently in the
|
||||
|
||||
international markets. The Spanish authorities have emphasised these
|
||||
|
||||
needs and have been defined as objectives to be achieved in the
|
||||
|
||||
different internationalisation strategies for the Spanish economy
|
||||
|
||||
designed in recent years, and although improvements have been made,
|
||||
|
||||
there is still ample scope to deepen the reforms needed to achieve a
|
||||
|
||||
more efficient pattern of manufacturing specialisation. In most cases,
|
||||
|
||||
the analysis of these deficiencies has been confined to the country,
|
||||
|
||||
without paying special attention to the study of the regional aspect,
|
||||
|
||||
and to the high regional geographic concentration in the Spanish
|
||||
|
||||
production of manufactures with a higher technological content,
|
||||
|
||||
highlighting the unavoidable need to implement economic policy tools to
|
||||
|
||||
improve the supply of new products with high technological content.
|
||||
|
||||
This article analyses the technological intensity of manufactures
|
||||
|
||||
exported by the Spanish autonomous communities to the world and the main
|
||||
|
||||
territories of East Asia: China, Japan, Korea, ASEAN, Hong Kong and
|
||||
|
||||
Taiwan, for the period 2000 to 2016. As we mentioned before, this choice
|
||||
|
||||
is based on the importance that these territories have achieved in the
|
||||
|
||||
international markets of manufactures in general, and of manufactures
|
||||
|
||||
with high technological intensity in particular, and also based on the
|
||||
|
||||
low presence in the economic literature in Spain.
|
||||
|
||||
This analysis fills a crucial gap in the economic literature regarding
|
||||
|
||||
the technological intensity of manufactures exported by Spanish regions,
|
||||
|
||||
and it is for this reason that our study aims to provide scientific
|
||||
|
||||
evidence for the case of the technological intensity of manufactures
|
||||
|
||||
exported by Spanish autonomous communities to the world and to the East
|
||||
|
||||
Asian region. Therefore, it could serve as an important tool on the
|
||||
|
||||
assessment of economic policy measures implemented to increase regional
|
||||
|
||||
exports of manufactures with a higher technological content. This work
|
||||
|
||||
can also be a good tool for Spanish companies that wish to
|
||||
|
||||
internationalise their processes in the countries of the study,
|
||||
|
||||
identifying market niches and difficulties in internationalising their
|
||||
|
||||
processes in East Asian countries. Likewise, it can serve the Spanish
|
||||
|
||||
authorities at national and regional level in charge of designing
|
||||
|
||||
policies aimed at favouring these processes of business
|
||||
|
||||
internationalisation, identifying comparative advantages, and
|
||||
|
||||
reinforcing economic policy tools aimed at improving the financing,
|
||||
|
||||
training and qualification of companies exporting manufactures with a
|
||||
|
||||
high technological content. Thus, this article has a significant
|
||||
|
||||
relevance due to the need to improve the regional export propensity of
|
||||
|
||||
manufactures with a higher technological content, since achieving these
|
||||
|
||||
objectives could help to attain greater economic growth, showing that
|
||||
|
||||
product specialisation from the point of view of technological intensity
|
||||
|
||||
is not neutral on potential of wealth creation.
|
||||
|
||||
One of the aims of this paper is to determine the weight of the foreign
|
||||
|
||||
manufacturing sector in the Spanish regional economies, since the
|
||||
|
||||
measures and the scope of the economic policies to be implemented to
|
||||
|
||||
improve the technological intensity of manufacturing will depend to a
|
||||
|
||||
certain degree on the importance of this sector in each of the
|
||||
|
||||
autonomous communities, and for this it will be essential to determine
|
||||
|
||||
the technological breakdown of manufactures exported by the Spanish
|
||||
|
||||
regions to the world and to the countries of East Asia, as well as to
|
||||
|
||||
analyse the evolution of their technological pattern during the study
|
||||
|
||||
period. This article also aims to determine the main manufactures with
|
||||
|
||||
high technological intensity exported by the Spanish regions to the
|
||||
|
||||
countries of East Asia, to analyse their level of concentration, and the
|
||||
|
||||
degree of similarity of the distributions of exports of manufactures
|
||||
|
||||
with high technological intensity among each of the Spanish autonomous
|
||||
|
||||
communities, and that of Spain as a whole. The database used in this
|
||||
|
||||
study is Datacomex of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Tourism of
|
||||
|
||||
Spain, which collects data on declared trade provided by the Department
|
||||
|
||||
of Customs and Special Taxes of the State Agency of the Tax
|
||||
|
||||
Administration.
|
||||
|
||||
In the regional study of manufactures exported according to their
|
||||
|
||||
technological content by Spain and by the Spanish regions to the world
|
||||
|
||||
and the countries of East Asia, a statistical analysis is carried out
|
||||
|
||||
using the technological classification established by the OECD, where
|
||||
|
||||
manufactures are broken down into four groups: high technology
|
||||
|
||||
manufactures, medium-high technology, medium-low technology, and low
|
||||
|
||||
technology. The disaggregation of manufactures used in this article is
|
||||
|
||||
at five-digit level, which provides a high level of disaggregation,
|
||||
|
||||
avoiding the likely drawbacks derived from a high level of aggregation.
|
||||
|
||||
In the analysis of the concentration of exported manufactures, we used
|
||||
|
||||
the Theil concentration index, while in the study of the similarity
|
||||
|
||||
between the distributions of exports to the world and to the East Asian
|
||||
|
||||
countries regarding manufactures with high technological intensity,
|
||||
|
||||
between the Spainsh regions and Spain as whole, we use the
|
||||
|
||||
Finger-Kreinin index.
|
||||
|
||||
From the analysis of the manufactures exports, it is observed that there
|
||||
|
||||
is no clear relationship between the weight of the manufacturing sector
|
||||
|
||||
in the regional economies and the volume of exports with high
|
||||
|
||||
technological intensity. Although it is difficult to establish a pattern
|
||||
|
||||
regarding the evolution of manufactures with high intensity exported by
|
||||
|
||||
the Spanish regions, some autonomous communities, such as the Community
|
||||
|
||||
of Madrid, have significantly increased the proportion of manufactures
|
||||
|
||||
exported with high technological intensity as they increased their sales
|
||||
|
||||
abroad in absolute terms, establishing a pattern of industrialisation
|
||||
|
||||
focused on those manufactures with a higher added value. Moreover, from
|
||||
|
||||
the analysis of manufactures exports to the countries of East Asia, we
|
||||
|
||||
can conclude that exports values can be improved both in quantitative
|
||||
|
||||
and qualitative terms, and that there is a significant concentration of
|
||||
|
||||
manufactures exports in a few regions. Madrid, followed by Castilla-Leon
|
||||
|
||||
and Andalucia are among the Spanish regions that showed a good
|
||||
|
||||
performance during the study period, and among those that better adapted
|
||||
|
||||
to the pattern of specialisation of Asian imports, on the other hand are
|
||||
|
||||
regions such as Galicia, Cantabria, Extremadura or Murcia. Likewise, the
|
||||
|
||||
evolution of the value of exports of manufactures with high
|
||||
|
||||
technological intensity is very heterogeneous, and there is no a defined
|
||||
|
||||
pattern.
|
||||
|
||||
From the analysis of the concentration index, it is observed that a high
|
||||
|
||||
concentration is associated with a low level of value exports, that is
|
||||
|
||||
why as value of exports increases, there is a greater product
|
||||
|
||||
diversification. Moreover, there is a greater concentration in
|
||||
|
||||
manufactures exported to the East Asian countries than those exported to
|
||||
|
||||
the rest of the world. Overall, from the results obtained by the
|
||||
|
||||
Finger-Kreinin index, we can conclude that the Spanish regions have a
|
||||
|
||||
distribution of exports of manufactures with a high technological
|
||||
|
||||
intensity quite similar to that of the nation as a whole, that these
|
||||
|
||||
distributions have been homogenised with that of the country as a whole
|
||||
|
||||
over time, with a greater homogeneity in the case of those regions with
|
||||
|
||||
high propensity to exports manufactures of high technological content.'
