Export variety and economic growth in East Europe/
Funke, Michael
Export variety and economic growth in East Europe/ created by Michael Funke and Ralf Ruhwedel - Economics of transition Volume 13, number 1 .
Utilizing panel data for 14 East European transition economies, we discuss the link between product variety and growth. The empirical work relies upon some direct measures of product variety calculated from 5-digit OECD trade data. On balance, the results suggest that the growth patterns of the East European transition countries may be best represented by Ventura's (1997) model of outward orientation and integration with the world economy.
