Impact Of The Manufacturing Sector On The Export Competitiveness Of European Countries – A Spatial Panel Analysis
The purpose of this paper is to determine how changes in the export competitiveness of the EU economy (measured by exports and net exports) depend on changes in the competitiveness of processing industries, on the basis of manufacturing data from 19 EU countries over years 1995-2009 and using a spat...
