The purpose of this research project is to investigate empirically and quantitatively the globalization decision of Japanese firms based on micro-data. The main results from the research in the last year in the three-year project are as follows.(a) We analyzed the dataset constructed from the micro-data, which we had access under the official permission from the government lat year. We used "The basic Survey of Commercial and Manufacturing Structure and Activities," conducted by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (currently the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry) as the principal data source. The main findings reported in our academic papers are as follows.(b) In the outsourcing choice between domestic vs. foreign suppliers, R＆D-intensive firms tend to choose domestic suppliers. In comparing domestic outsourcing, foreign outsourcers, and firms sourcing from their foreign affiliates, productive firms tend to source abroad, and capital-intensive or R＆D-intensive firms tend to source from their foreign affiliates. These results are basically robust after industry and firm-size are controlled for. We also find that firms tend to outsource to foreign suppliers in the least R＆D-intensive stage along the product cycles.(c) We also compare the impacts of internal R＆D efforts and external networks on the firm's exporting decision. As a related study, we also have examined the relation between foreign direct investment and intellectual property right protection.

本研究的目的是基于微观数据，对日本企业的全球化决策进行实证和定量研究。本研究在三年期项目的最后一年取得的主要成果如下。(a)我们分析了由微观数据构建的数据集，这些数据是我们去年在政府的官方许可下获得的。本研究以通产省（现为经济产业省）实施的“商业和制造业结构与活动基本调查”为主要数据来源。我们在学术论文中报告的主要研究结果如下。(b)在外包选择中，R& D密集型企业更倾向于选择国内供应商。在比较国内外包、外国外包商和从其外国子公司采购的公司时，生产性公司倾向于从国外采购，资本密集型或研发密集型公司倾向于从其外国子公司采购。这些结果基本上是稳健的行业和企业规模的控制后。我们还发现，企业倾向于外包给外国供应商在最不R& D密集的阶段沿着产品周期。(c)我们还比较了内部研发努力和外部网络对企业出口决策的影响。作为相关研究，我们还考察了外商直接投资与知识产权保护的关系。
