Abstract

We examine the effects of the interplay between home institutional constraints and government support policies, on the export intensity of small and large enterprises in emerging and developing economies. We consider three different kinds of government support policies: contracts, subsidies, and credits-and-loans (CSLs). We argue that CSLs can act as pullback forces to the escapist forces that push firms to internationalize. Drawing on Tobit regressions and a sample of 1544 firms in Eastern Europe, the Caucasus, and Central Asia, our findings show that CSLs act as pullback forces, with smaller firms being more susceptible.

国际化与逃避主义：政府的支持是大大小小的企业的后撤力量

我们研究了国内制度约束和政府支持政策之间的相互作用对新兴和发展中经济体小型和大型企业出口强度的影响。我们考虑了三种不同的政府支持政策：合同、补贴和信贷（csl）。我们认为，csl可以作为一种回调力量，以逃避现实的力量，推动企业国际化。利用Tobit回归和东欧、高加索和中亚的1544家公司的样本，我们的研究结果表明，企业社会责任公司起到了回调力量的作用，规模较小的公司更容易受到影响。
