Abstract

Innovation plays a major role in determining exports of a country by strengthening domestic industries. The narratives of innovation and exports are important for national competitiveness. Therefore, this study, utilizing a meta-regression analysis, examines the impact of innovation on export performances. We conduct a meta-analysis from 27 empirical studies that contain 249 estimates undertaken during 1996–2019 with an aim to test whether the results of empirical studies are sensitive to various measures utilized and recognize possible policy implications. This study finds that innovation affects export performance across countries. We find strong evidence that developed countries’ domestic innovation enhance their exports; however, for developing countries, innovation does not contribute to their exports. It indicates that within developing countries, the level of innovation efforts varies and concomitantly their inability to translate such efforts into exports.

创新是否会刺激各国的出口表现？元回归分析研究

创新通过加强国内产业，在决定一个国家的出口方面发挥着重要作用。创新和出口的叙述对国家竞争力很重要。因此，本研究采用元回归分析，考察创新对出口绩效的影响。我们对1996年至2019年期间进行的27项实证研究进行了荟萃分析，其中包含249项估计，旨在检验实证研究的结果是否对所采用的各种措施敏感，并认识到可能的政策影响。本研究发现，创新影响着各国的出口绩效。我们发现强有力的证据表明，发达国家的国内创新促进了其出口;然而，对于发展中国家来说，创新对它们的出口没有贡献。它表明，在发展中国家内部，创新努力的程度各不相同，随之而来的是它们无法将这种努力转化为出口。

期刊介绍： Millennial Asia: An International Journal of Asian Studies is a multidisciplinary, refereed biannual journal of the Association of Asia Scholars (AAS)–an association of the alumni of the Asian Scholarship Foundation (ASF). It aims to encourage multifaceted, multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research on Asia, in order to understand its fast changing context as a growth pole of global economy. By providing a forum for Asian scholars situated globally, it promotes dialogue between the global academic community, civil society and policy makers on Asian issues. The journal examines Asia on a regional and comparative basis, emphasizing patterns and tendencies that go beyond national borders and are globally relevant. Modern and contemporary Asia has witnessed dynamic transformations in cultures, societies, economies and political institutions, among others. It confronts issues of collective identity formation, ecological crisis, rapid economic change and resurgence of religion and communal identifies while embracing globalization. An analysis of past experiences can help produce a deeper understanding of contemporary change. In particular, the journal is interested in locating contemporary changes within a historical perspective, through the use of interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches. This way, it hopes to promote comparative studies involving Asia’s various regions. The journal brings out both thematic and general issues and the thrust areas are: Asian integration, Asian economies, sociology, culture, politics, governance, security, development issues, arts and literature and any other such issue as the editorial board may deem fit. The core fields include development encompassing agriculture, industry, regional trade, social sectors like health and education and development policy across the region and in specific countries in a comparative perspective.
