On the one hand, a real exchange undervaluation measure is constructed based on the purchasing-power-parity theory corrected by the Balassa-Samuelson effect. On the other hand, the index of technological specialization is used as a measure of domestic technological capabilities. Time-series-cross-section-growth regressions with development level interactions are used to test the stability of these variables’ growth impact. The results show that real undervaluation is a growth driver across all development levels, once technological capabilities are accounted for; however, it is more important for developing and developed countries than for emerging markets. The results also suggest that developing countries grow faster when they are globally competitive in low-technology manufacturing and natural-resource-intensive industries. This research attempts to explain the lack of significance found in previous studies of the growth impact of real undervaluation in middle-income countries by accounting for an explicit role for domestic technological capabilities in the development process.","24 Seiten","https://refubium.fu-berlin.de/handle/fub188/19596||http://dx.doi.org/10.17169/refubium-23229","eng","urn:nbn:de:kobv:188-fudocsseries000000000532-8||urn:nbn:de:kobv:188-fudocsseries000000000006-7","http://www.fu-berlin.de/sites/refubium/rechtliches/Nutzungsbedingungen","economic development||economic growth||domestic technological capabilities||real exchange rate undervaluation","300 Sozialwissenschaften::330 Wirtschaft||300 Sozialwissenschaften::330 Wirtschaft::338 Produktion||300 Sozialwissenschaften::330 Wirtschaft::339 Makroökonomie und verwandte Themen","Growth Impacts of the Exchange Rate and Technology","Buch","open access","Wirtschaftswissenschaft","FUDOCS_derivate_000000007014","FUDOCS_document_000000025408","2016,19 : Economics","Diskussionsbeiträge des Fachbereichs Wirtschaftswissenschaft der Freien Universität Berlin"
