This same growth process has already started in South and South East Asian LDCs since the mid-1990s. However, the manufacturing sector in sub-Saharan Africa has been underdeveloped and manufacturing exports, in particular labour-intensive goods, have stagnated. This paper investigates the international competitiveness of the African manufacturing sector and its determinants through an analytical survey of empirical studies and a comparison with Asian low income countries. \nEmpirical evidences indicate that primary factors of competitiveness, namely productivity, labour cost and exchange rate are unfavorable in sub-Saharan Africa. Representative arguments attribute the weak competitiveness to problems in the business environment, factor endowment, and the exchange rate. However, careful review shows that labour cost is beyond the range explained by endowment and misalignment of exchange rates have been reduced in Africa. Moreover, comparison with Asian low income countries which have competitiveness in labour-intensive goods shows no difference in the quality of business environment, while the labour cost is significantly lower than sub-Saharan African countries. Although results should be considered tentative, high labour cost beyond endowment and conservative investment behavior emerge as important factors for the weak competitiveness in sub-Saharan Africa when controlling income level.","subitem_description_type":"Abstract"}]},"item_14_geolocation_18":{"attribute_name":"地域/国名","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_geolocation_place":[{"subitem_geolocation_place_text":"アフリカ"}]}]},"item_14_identifier_registration":{"attribute_name":"ID登録","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_identifier_reg_text":"10.20561/00038158","subitem_identifier_reg_type":"JaLC"}]},"item_14_publisher_7":{"attribute_name":"出版者","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_publisher":"Institute of Developing Economies　(IDE-JETRO)　"}]},"item_14_rights_5":{"attribute_name":"権利","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_rights":"Copyrights 日本貿易振興機構（ジェトロ）アジア経済研究所 / Institute of Developing Economies, Japan External Trade Organization (IDE-JETRO) http://www.ide.go.jp"}]},"item_14_subject_16":{"attribute_name":"日本十進分類法","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_subject":"580","subitem_subject_scheme":"NDC"}]},"item_14_subject_17":{"attribute_name":"JEL分類","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_subject":"JEL:F14 - Country and Industry Studies of Trade","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"JEL:L60 - General","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"JEL:O14 - Industrialization; Manufacturing and Service Industries; Choice of Technology","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"JEL:O55 - Africa","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"}]},"item_14_subject_19":{"attribute_name":"主題(図書館用)","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_subject":"Manufacturing exports","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"International competitiveness","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Sub-Saharan Africa","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Manufacturing industries","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Exports","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"International competition","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Business enterprises","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"Africa","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"製造業","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"輸出","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"国際競争力","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"企業","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"},{"subitem_subject":"アフリカ","subitem_subject_scheme":"Other"}]},"item_14_text_32":{"attribute_name":"著者別名","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_text_value":"福西, 隆弘"}]},"item_14_version_type_15":{"attribute_name":"著者版フラグ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_version_resource":"http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85","subitem_version_type":"VoR"}]},"item_creator":{"attribute_name":"著者","attribute_type":"creator","attribute_value_mlt":[{"creatorNames":[{"creatorName":"Fukunishi, Takahiro"}],"nameIdentifiers":[{"nameIdentifier":"45165","nameIdentifierScheme":"WEKO"}]}]},"item_files":{"attribute_name":"ファイル情報","attribute_type":"file","attribute_value_mlt":[{"accessrole":"open_date","date":[{"dateType":"Available","dateValue":"2017-04-10"}],"displaytype":"detail","filename":"IDP000002_001.pdf","filesize":[{"value":"765.7 kB"}],"format":"application/pdf","licensetype":"license_note","mimetype":"application/pdf","url":{"label":"本文","url":"https://ir.ide.go.jp/record/38163/files/IDP000002_001.pdf"},"version_id":"75b7ec15-00a9-4220-b501-ffd80cde8311"}]},"item_language":{"attribute_name":"言語","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_language":"eng"}]},"item_resource_type":{"attribute_name":"資源タイプ","attribute_value_mlt":[{"resourcetype":"technical report","resourceuri":"http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_18gh"}]},"item_title":"International Competitiveness of Manufacturing Firms in sub-Saharan Africa","item_titles":{"attribute_name":"タイトル","attribute_value_mlt":[{"subitem_title":"International Competitiveness of Manufacturing Firms in sub-Saharan Africa"}]},"item_type_id":"14","owner":"19","path":["4107"],"pubdate":{"attribute_name":"公開日","attribute_value":"2006-10-30"},"publish_date":"2006-10-30","publish_status":"0","recid":"38163","relation_version_is_last":true,"title":["International Competitiveness of Manufacturing Firms in sub-Saharan Africa"],"weko_creator_id":"19","weko_shared_id":-1},"updated":"2023-07-27T15:34:35.926335+00:00"}
