North-South Trade and Economic Development

本研究的目的是探讨南北贸易和技术转让或资金从北方到南方如何影响南北经济体的增长、就业和收入分配。两位研究者（阿达奇和中谷）组织了研讨会，并邀请了该领域的一些研究人员从不同的角度开展这一研究项目。我们的调查结果可以总结如下：1。通过构建一个南北增长模型，考察了南方商品对北方商品的贸易条件是如何决定的，以及它与两个地区经济增长率的关系.通过构建以熟练劳动力和非熟练劳动力禀赋差异为特征的南北模型，考察了南北贸易模式或工资差异的决定因素。我们就教育对香港经济发展的影响进行了实证研究。我们考察了亚洲国家货币危机的原因和结果，以了解发展中国家金融与真实的经济之间的关系。我们在效率工资假设下分析了真实的工资率与失业率之间的关系。这项研究与南北问题没有直接关系，但我们打算在今后的研究中将其用于南北经济体工资和失业的比较分析。

The purpose of this research is to investigate how the North-South trade and technological transfer or finance from the North to the South influence on growth, employment, and income distribution in the North and South economies. The two investigator (Adachi and Nakatani) organized workshops and invited some researchers in this field to carry out this research project from various view points. The results of our investigation may be summarized as follows :1. By constructing a North-South growth model, we investigated how the terms of trade of the Southern commodity to the Northern commodity is determined and how it is related to the growth rates of the two regions.2. By constructing a North-South model that is characterized by the differences of endowments of skilled and unskilled labor, we investigated how the patterns of trade or the wage differences between the North and the South are determined.3. We carried out an empirical examination of the effects of education on economic development for the Hong Kong Economy.4. We examined the causes and results of currency crises in Asian countries to see the relations between finance and real economy for those developing countries.5. We analyzed the relation between the real wage rate and unemployment under the efficiency wage hypothesis. This study is not directly related to the North-South problems, but we intend to use it for the comparative analysis of wage and unemployment for North-South economies in the future study.
