摘要

之前对1996年至2010年期间22个中东和撒哈拉以南非洲国家的正式制度对知识经济影响的分析得出结论,正式制度是必要的,但不是知识经济的决定因素。为了扩展这一研究,本文认为全球化带来了和平与稳定,这影响到治理,并通过治理促进知识经济。这一主张解决了先前研究的一个弱点,即没有考虑全球化对知识经济的影响。我们将命题建模为四个假设中的三个阶段过程,并使用能够在不牺牲经济相关性和重要性的情况下处理常见统计问题的稳健估计器估计每个假设。结果表明,全球化对和平与稳定的影响是不同的,而和平与稳定对治理的影响取决于全球化的类型。例如,被定义为贸易的全球化对治理的影响比被定义为外国直接投资的全球化对治理的影响更大。因此,我们得出结论,在我们的样本国家中,外国直接投资不是刺激和维持知识经济的有力机制。然而,由于全球化引发的和平与稳定同时对治理产生积极和消极的影响,我们还得出结论,尽管非洲国家的知识经济前景黯淡,但只要这些国家继续参与确实能带来和平与稳定的全球化,它仍然是现实的和可实现的。我们进一步得出结论,有必要更加关注经济和体制治理,而不是一般治理,作为本文的一个可能的延伸。

Globalization, Peace & Stability, Governance, and Knowledge Economy
A previous analysis of the impact of formal institutions on the knowledge economy of 22 Middle-Eastern and Sub-Sahara African countries during the 1996-2010 time period concluded that formal institutions were necessary, but inadequate, determinants of the knowledge economy. To extend that study, this paper claims that globalization induces peace and stability, which affects governance and through governance the knowledge economy. The claim addresses one weakness of previous research that did not consider the effects on the knowledge economy of globalization. We model the proposition as a three-stage process in four hypotheses, and estimate each hypothesis using robust estimators that are capable of dealing with the usual statistical problems without sacrificing economic relevance and significance. The results indicate that globalization has varying effects on peace and stability, and peace and stability affect governance differently depending on what kind of globalization induces it. For instance, the effects on governance induced by globalization defined as trade are stronger than those resulting from globalization taken to be foreign direct investment. Hence, we conclude that foreign direct investment is not a powerful mechanism for stimulating and sustaining the knowledge economy in our sample of countries. However, since globalization-induced peace and stability have both positive and negative effects on governance simultaneously, we also conclude that while the prospect for knowledge economy in African countries is dim, it is still realistic and attainable as long as these countries continue to engage in the kind of globalization that does indeed induce peace and stability. We further conclude that there is a need for a sharper focus on economic and institutional governance than on general governance as one possible extension of this paper.
