Summary of Research Objectives
This research project seeks to understand the conditions under which countries succeed in participating effectively in the world economy, and are able to secure industrial development and modernisation. To achieve this objective the network will analyse the interactions between trade, industry, institutions and economic development, both from the theoretical and the empirical standpoint. The teams will comprise researchers with expertise in trade economics (trade policy, economic geography, FDI and multinational firms), industrial organisation, economic growth, political economy, and development economics. Research will cover cross-country analysis, in-depth industry and country analyses, and policy analysis.
There are four broad strands to the research:
-
Investigation of patterns of industrial development.
-
Detailed analysis of firm and industry performance in selected countries.
-
Analysis of the role of institutions in development.
-
Policy analysis, drawing on our findings.
