摘要

在本期的《非洲经济杂志》中，我们发表了两篇关于撒哈拉以南非洲(SSA)制造业企业规模分布的论文。一篇论文研究了加纳(Teal)公司规模分布的变化(本期)，另一篇研究了埃塞俄比亚(Azmete等)公司规模分布的变化(本期)。本文旨在介绍和比较这两篇论文的研究结果，并将这些研究结果置于更广泛的政策辩论中，以解释SSA制造业的表现。

What Explains the Firm Size Distribution in Sub-Saharan Africa and Why Does It Matter?

Abstract In this issue of the Journal of African Economies we publish two papers concerned with the firm size distribution of manufacturing firms in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). One paper examines the changes in the firm size distribution for Ghana, Teal (this issue), the other for Ethiopia, Azmete et al. (this issue). This note is intended to introduce, and compare, the findings of these two papers and to place those findings in the wider policy debate as to what explains the performance of the manufacturing sector in SSA.
