The lack of systematic cross-industry correlation between export specialization and technological advantage suggests that standard measu-res of revealed comparative advantage only imperfectly capture a country’s tech-nological prowess due to the concurrent influences of factor prices, market size, markups, firm selection and market share reallocation.1 Online-Ressource (III, 22 Seiten, 2,09 MB) : Diagrammeenghttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/comparative advantageEuropean cross-country datafirm heterogeneityinternational trademonopolistic competitionmulti-product firmsproductivity330Reassessing EU comparative advantage : the role of technology / Filippo di Mauro, Marco Matani, Gianmarco Ottaviano ; editor: Halle Institute for Economic Research (IWH) - Member of the Leibniz AssociationBook
