Abstract

The extractive industry typically contributes limited direct employment in host countries, prompting some nations to consider export restrictions on raw materials to enhance domestic job opportunities. However, scholarly opinions on the efficacy of these policies vary widely. This study addresses this gap by utilizing an extensive dataset spanning over a decade and encompassing diverse countries. Employing a fixed-effect Ordinary Least Square (OLS) regression model with panel data from 74 countries from 2009 to 2021, this paper shows that raw material export restrictions do not affect employment rates. This fact challenges the prevailing notion that export restrictions inherently boost domestic employment. Consequently, a more comprehensive strategy, including economic diversification, technological investment, and alternative job creation measures alongside export controls, is essential to effectively address employment challenges within the extractive sector.JEL Classification: F1, J2, O1
原材料出口限制对就业的影响:来自面板数据的证据
采掘业通常在东道国提供有限的直接就业机会,促使一些国家考虑限制原材料出口,以增加国内就业机会。然而,学术界对这些政策效果的看法却大相径庭。本研究通过利用跨越十年、涵盖不同国家的广泛数据集来解决这一差距。本文采用固定效应的普通最小二乘(OLS)回归模型,对74个国家2009年至2021年的面板数据进行分析,结果表明原材料出口限制对就业率没有影响。这一事实挑战了出口限制本身就能促进国内就业的普遍观念。因此,一项更全面的战略,包括经济多样化、技术投资和其他创造就业的措施以及出口管制,对于有效解决采掘业的就业挑战至关重要。JEL分类:F1, J2, O1
