This paper examines the empirical relationship between trade and total factor productivity (TFP) in South Africa. It uses (i) a time series approach where trade is defined in terms of aggregate outcomes, id est, as the share of imports plus exports in GDP, and (ii) a cross sectional approach, where...

520 3 |a This paper examines the empirical relationship between trade and total factor productivity (TFP) in South Africa. It uses (i) a time series approach where trade is defined in terms of aggregate outcomes, id est, as the share of imports plus exports in GDP, and (ii) a cross sectional approach, where trade is defined in terms of trade policy, id est, as actual trade protection across different manufacturing sectors. The results indicate that there is a significant positive relationship between trade and TFP growth both over time and across sectors.
