中国的崛起引发了人们对拉丁美洲制造业未来的尖锐质疑。本文着眼于这一挑战及其影响。首先要问:制造业对拉丁美洲仍然重要吗?它认为,该地区不能背弃一条行之有效的发展道路。然后,它继续表明,禀赋、生产力、规模和政府的作用,所有这些共同作用使中国成为一个强大的竞争对手。对贸易数据的分析证实了这一挑战的重要性,该数据表明迄今为止影响较小,但趋势令人不安。
China¿s emergence has raised pointed questions about the future of manufacturing in Latin America. This paper looks at this challenge and its implications. It begins by asking: Does manufacturing still matter for Latin America? It argues that the region cannot afford to turn its back to a well-proven road to development. It then moves on to show that endowments, productivity, scale and the government¿s role, all work together to make China a formidable competitor. The importance of this challenge is confirmed by an analysis of the trade data, which suggests a small impact so far, but a disquieting trend.
