ABSTRACT EVALUATION OF THE AFRICAN ASSOCIATED STATES RESPONSE TO TARIFF PREFERENCES GRANTED BY THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC COMMUNITY By Moise Allal In 1958, 18 African countries were associated with the European Economic Community (EEC), and were thus granted preferential treatment for their exports to EEC countries. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the way in which 14 members of the African Associated States (AAS) res- ponded to the EEC tariff preferences during the 1962—1969 period. The evaluation of the AAS response was limited to manufactured exports. The study was designed to meetttmee1major objectives. URN; first objective of the study was to evaluate empirically the impact of tariff preferences on AAS manu— factured exports_to the EEC. For this purpose, a methodolo- gy was developed which takes into consideration changes in EEC demand and AAS supply conditions over the period of ana- lysis (1962-1969). The methodology makes use of two groups of "control" countries: "Other LDCs" (i.e., non-beneficiary developing countries) and "Other DMECs" (i.e., developed market economy countries other than the EEC countries). It Moise Allal was applied at various degrees of commodity aggregation, from total AAS manufactured exports to commodities at the 5—digit level of the CST Commodity Classification (i.e., the classification system adopted by the EEC). It was shown that, in general, the AAS failed to respond to EEC pre- ferences by expanding manufactured exports to EEC countries at a higher rate than would have prevailed in the absence of such preferences. With respect to individual manu- factured commodities, the analyses indicated a positive AAS response for only a small fraction of the total number of commodities investigated, these being generally raw materials - intensive semi-manufactures. Moreover, newly produced consumer goods (i.e., goods first produced after the granting of EEC preferences) were exported primarily to develOping countries in Africa. Tfimaarond Objective of the study was to test a trade model based on the Linder similarity of preferences theory in order to determine whether the theory explains the geographi- cal intensity of AAS exports. A regression equation of the following general form was tested: (API) f( IAPCII, D, L, P) where: API 2 average propensity to import. IAPCII ll absolute difference between the per capita income of the exporting country and that of the importing country. Moise Allal D 2 distance between the importing and exporting countries. L 2 binary variable (values of O or 1). If the official language of the importing country is the same as that of the exporting country, L : 1. If it is not the same, L = O. P : binary variable (values of O or 1). If a special trading agreement exists between the importing and exporting countries, P = 1. If it does not, P = O. The Linder theory implies that the regression coefficients for IAPCII and D should be negative while the coefficient for L should be positive. Furthermore, the regression coefficient for P should not be significant. Findings from the test generally supported the theory. The regression coefficients for IAPCII, D and L were in most cases significant and with the predicted sign, while the coefficient for P was generally non—significant. More- over, as implied by the Linder theory, the model applied better to consumer goods than to semi—manufactures. The third and final objective of the study was to examine, on the basis of the evaluation of the AAS response and the results of the test of the Linder theory, two con- trasting trade strategies which could be adopted by the AAS: a trade strategy based on an expansion of manufactured ex- ports to industrialized countries, and a trade strategy Moise Allal based on an expansion of intra-regiona] trade. It was argued that, given the characteristics of the AAS, the latter stra- tegy would have more chance to succeed than would the former strategy.

Politically, if not economically, the granting of preferences has been re— garded by the developing countries as a superior form of aid because the preferential system, once established, would be less sensitive to political conditions in the preference granting countries. It is not certain, however, that the granting of tariff preferences will yield the positive impact expected by developing countries. Many of these countries may be unable to supply the type and quality of goods demanded in industrial- ized countries. A number of factors - such as a low technolo- gical level, high transport costs, lack of marketing skills - may be much more constraining than the tariffs and quotas imposed by industrialized countries on manufactured imports. It is therefore of interest to analyze the impact of preferen- tial schemes which have been in existence for a period of time. Such an analysis could help developing countries to reassess their trade strategies, especially those based on expansion of manufactured exports to industrialized countries. 1 In 1958, 18 African countries were associated with the European Economic Community (EEC), and were thus granted pre- ferential treatment for their exports to EEC countries. The purpose of this study is to evaluate, in the light of existing trade theories, the way in which 14 members of the African Associated States (AAS)l responded to EEC tariff preferences during the 1962-1969 period. Although the AAS countries export mostly agricultural and raw materials, this study focuses on manufactured exports for the following reason. The General System of Preferences (GSP) schemes implemented by various industrialized countries since 1971 apply to manufactured exports from developing countries.2 Findings from this study may therefore be useful in predicting the impact of these schemes on manufactured ex— ports from countries at a similar level of development as the AAS countries. 1The 14 countries are Cameroon, Togo, Senegal, Madagascar, Ivory Coast, Congo, Dahomey, Niger, Upper Volta, Chad, Mali, Mauretania, Gabon, and Central African Republic. Due to lack of data, 4 AAS countries (Zaire, Rwanda, Burundi, Somaliland) are not included in the study. 2On July I, 1971, the EEC exempted from custom duties (within the limits of a tariff-quota system) all imports of manufactures and semi—manufactures from 91 developing countries. In the following months, other industrialized countries (Japan, Norway, U.K., Denmark, Finland, Ireland, New Zealand, Sweden, Switzerland and Austria) followed the EEC move and implemented their own General System of Preferences (GSP). The U.S. GSP scheme was implemented in 1976. The tariff preferences granted by the EEC to the AAS are much less restrictive than those included in the various GSP schemes. Furthermore, during the 1962—1969 period (i.e., the period covered by this study), the AAS could still benefit from a potentially high level of trade diversion since most of the other developing countries did not yet benefit from similar trade preferences. Thus, the AAS countries response to EEC preferences should be greater than.that of similar countries to the GSP schemes. A failure of the AAS to respond positively and significantly to the EEC preferences would raise doubts as to the usefulness of the GSP schemes in expanding manufactured exports from highly underdeveIOped countries to industrialized countries. 1. The Association Convention between the EEC and the African Associated States During the negotiations leading up to the 1957 Treaty of Rome, France campaigned vigorously for the association of its overseas territories with the European Community. As a result, 18 African countries, colonies of France, Belgium and Italy, became "associate members" of the EEC on January 1,1958. The goals of the association convention were to per- petuate the existing preferential treatment granted by some EEC members to their colonies. As associate members, the AAS countries cannot legally influence the policies of the EEC, do not have to contribute to the budget of the community, and are not expected to carry out the obligations of the Treaty of 4 Rome, except for the special provisions of the Treaty which apply to them. The Treaty of Rome, which became effective on January 1, 1958, granted the AAS substantial trade preferences, as well as important financial aid and technical assistance. In return, the AAS countries granted the EEC countries reverse preferences in trade and investment. The association conven- tion was extended in 1963 for a five-year period (First Yaoundé Convention), and on January 1, 1970, was extended for another five-year period (Second Yaounde Convention). The Yaounde Conventions introduced certain distinctions between the treat- ment of the AAS and-that of the French Departments and Terri- tories. The provisions of these conventions have recently been superceded by the Lomé Convention of February 28, 1975, which covers trade and aid relations between the present members of the EEC and 46 African, Caribbean and Pacific countries (ACPs), including the AAS. The Lomé Convention terms represent a change in policy by the EEC on reverse preferences. The ACP countries are not required to grant reverse preferences, but must give the EEC the most favored nation treatment and must avoid discrimination between EEC member states. In many instances, the tariff preferences granted by the EEC to the AAS were less favorable than those which existed prior to 1958 under bilateral arrangements between individual EEC members and their colonies. However, since preferences apply to a much larger market than that of the metropolitan country, the AAS countries should benefit from the associatiOn. The Treaty of Rome and the two Yaounde Conventions contain a number of special provisions with respect to tropical products of great interest to the AAS. With respect to manu— factured exports, the AAS enjoys the same tariff preferences as individual EEC members. From 1958 to 1968, tariff duties imposed on manufactured imports by EEC countries from the AAS were gradually reduced, reaching a zero value in 1968. During the same period, the EEC countries imposed a common external tariff on manufactured imports from non—associated countries. 2. Objectives of the study This study is designed to meet four major objectives. First, trade preferences granted by the EEC to the AAS are examined in the light of existing trade theories in order to identify and compare the various types of response to pre- ferences suggested by these theories. Second, the effect of tariff preferences on the AAS export of manufactures to the EEC is evaluated empirically both from the view point of AAS exports and from that of EEO imports. In the case of AAS exports, the growth of the value of exports of various manufactured goods to the EEC and other regions of the world is estimated for the period 1962-1969. The growth of the market share of exports to these various regions is also estimated for the same period. A similar analysis is undertaken for the same commodities and the same period with respect to EEC imports. In this analysis the growth of EEO imports from the AAS and from other regions of the world are estimated in terms of both value and market share. The AAS response to tariff preferences is subsequently evaluated on the basis of a comparison of import and export growths using the method described in chapter II. Third, a trade model based on the Linder similarity of preferences theory is tested with respect to AAS exports. The test is performed for each AAS country and for the AAS as a whole. In each case, the test is repeated for 13 groups of manufactured exports, seven groups of consumer goods, and six groups of intermediate manufactured goods. Exports are divided into consumer goods and intermediate goods in order to determine whether, as implied by the Linder theory, the proposed trade model applies better to the former goods than to the latter ones. Test results are subsequently evaluated in the light of the previous findings regarding the AAS response to tariff preferences. Finally, on the basis of the evaluation of the AAS response and the results of the test of the trade model, a number of foreign trade strategies which could be adopted by the AAS countries are considered. These strategies are dis- cussed with respect to various economic development models of potential interest for the AAS. CHAPTER II IMPACT OF TRADE PREFERENCES: THEORETICAL CONSIDERATIONS This chapter will present the implications of current trade theories with respect to the potential impact of tariff preferences granted by the EEC to the AAS. First, the theory of customs unions will be briefly described, and then applied to the EEC-AAS trading arrangement in order to identify the potential effects of tariff preferences on AAS exports to the EEC. Second, a methodology will be developed in order to evaluate, in chapter III, the AAS response to EEC tariff pre- ferences. Third, various trade theories will be reviewed, and theh‘implications for AAS-EEC trade discussed. Particular attention will be given to the Linder similarity of preferences theory which provides the basis for the trade model tested in chapter IV. 1. The theory of customs unions and trade preferences Customs unions theory encompasses trading arrangements from the simple preferential area to total economic integration. The theory as first proposed by Viner (l),dealt mostly with the effects of tariff preferences — or discriminatory tariffs - on world welfare. It was not concerned with the effects of the free flow of factors of production associated with a common market such as that of the EEC, or the effects of common monetary, fiscal, and social policies associated with total 7 economic integration. Viner analyzed the effects of a customs union on the production patterns of member and non-member countries. He assumed that the establishment of a customs union does not affect consumption in the member countries. The two main effects of a union, according to Viner, are trade creation and trade diversion. Trade creation occurs when tariff pre- ferences lead to an increase in imports from lower—cost member countries at the expense of higher-cost domestic pro— duction. Trade diversion occurs when preferences lead to a decrease in imports from lower-cost non-member countries, and their displacement by imports from member countries. In Viner's model, it is implicitly assumed that the price elasticity of demand for any imported commodity is zero. It is probable, however, that tariff preferences alter relative prices, and lead to changes in consumption patterns. An elastic demand means that the creation of a union will have positive and negative consumption effects similar to the pro- duction effects described above. Meade (2) analyzed these consumption effects in a model which assumed a fixed pattern of production (i.e., zero elasticities of supply), but allowed the pattern of consumption to change with the creation of the union. By comparing the ratios of the marginal utility of products within individual countries - as indicated by their domestic price ratios-Meade was able to evaluate the effects of changes in the exports and imports of these countries. There is actually no reason to treat production effects and consumption effects separately since shifts in production will affect consumption and vice versa. Lipsey (3) introduces the concepts of inter—country substitution and inter-commodity substitution in order to differentiate the effects of a union. Inter—country substitution consists of trade creation and trade diversion due to shifts in the locus of production, while inter—commodity substitution consists of the substitution of one commodity for another as a result of a change in relative prices. Either substitution yields both production and con- sumption effects. The preceding review of the theory of customs union was concerned only with the static effects of a union (i.e., consumption, production and terms of trade effects). A union could also yield substantial dynamic effects in the form of increasing competitiveness, increasing investments, and an increasing rate of technological change. Since dynamic effects take place over a relatively long period of time, and the period of analysis used in this study (1962-1969) is relatively short, only static effects will be considered. Determinants of the static effects of a union The static effects of a union are a function of a number of variables whose impact may be evaluated within the framework of a partial equilibrium analysis (1,2,5), or a general equilibrium analysis. No attempt will be made to go into the details of these analyses since they are fairly IO 3 SI. 3 :dard, and may be found in a large number of books dealing with the welfare impact of customs unions. Rather, a summary of the results of these analyses will be provided. The static effects of a union are mainly a function of domestic supply and demand elasticities, the elasticity of supply of exports from member and non—member countries, the level of the preferential margin enjoyed by member countries, and the production cost differential between member and non— member countries. The higher the elasticities of demand and supply for goods traded between member countries within the union, the greater will be the scope for trade creation. On the other hand, the higher the elasticity of supply of exports from non-member countries to the union, and the higher the elasti- city of demand by member countries for these same exports, the greater will be the scope for trade diversion. Trade diversion will be larger than trade creation if the proportion of pre- union trade with non-member countries is relatively high and vice versa. The level of tariffs will also affect trade creation and trade diversion. The higher the level of pre—union tariffs imposed on imports from member countries, the greater will be the scope for trade creation. Similarly, the higher the level of tariffs imposed by member countries on imports from non— member countries, the greater will be the likelihood of a shift in production from the latter countries to the former, 11 and therefore the scope for trade diversion. Finally, the greater the efficiency of non—member countries over member countries in production, the greater will be the welfare loss per unit of trade diversion. The determinants of static effects may also be analyzed in the two special cases where the elasticity of demand and the elasticity of supply are assumed to be, respectively, equal to zero. If demand is assumed to be completely inelastic, trade creation will be larger the greater the elasticity of supply in member countries. Similarly, the larger the elasticity of domestic supply in non-member countries, the greater will be trade diversion. On the other hand, if the elasticity of supply is assumed to be equal to zero, it may be shown that the higher the original tariff of union members relative to that of non-member countries, the greater will be the scope for trade creation. Furthermore, the lower the degree of sub- stitutability among products of member countries, and the higher the degree of substitutabilitybehNeen products of member countries and those of non-members, the smaller will be the scope for trade creation and the larger the scope for trade diversion. One important question not raised above is whether the net impact of trade creation and diversion is a function, all else being equal, of the mix of countries entering into a union. Prior to the publication of Viner's book, it was thought that a union of complementary economies should yield a higher increase 12 in net welfare than a union of rival economies. Viner took an opposite view arguing that a union of rival economies should be more beneficial because there is greater scope for trade creation than for trade diversion (l, p.51). Actually, it can be shown that, depending on circumstances, either type of union may be more beneficial to world welfare. Let us define: QC volume of trade resulting from trade creation (in tons) (AP)C = difference between the domestic price of the higher—cost member country and the C.I.F. export price from the lower- cost member country (in dollars) QD = volume of trade resulting from trade diversion (in tons) (AP)D difference between the C.I.F. export price from the lower-cost non—member country and the C.I.F. export price from the higher— cost member country. Thus ( AP)C((.AP)D) measures the welfare gain (loss) per unit of volume of trade, while QC(QD) measures the volume of trade associated with trade creation (diversion). If a union gives rise to both trade creation and trade diversion, the net impact on world welfare, W, will be equal to: w = QC-(AE)C - QD-( AP)D The difference (QC — OD) should be greater for a l3 union formed of rival economies than for a union formed of complementary economies. On the other hand, the difference ((AP)C - (AP)D) should be smaller for the former union than for the latter one. Thus, it cannot be concluded that one type of union is necessarely more beneficial to world welfare than the other. ' Having defined, in broad terms, the static effects of a union and reviewed the factors which determine the size of these effects, the general conclusions derived above will now be applied to the particular case of the EEC—AAS trade arrange- ment. 2. Application of the theory of customs unions to the EEC-AAS trade agreement _The EEC-AAS trade arrangement constitutes a preferential area between a group of developed countries and a group of deve10ping countries. It is far from constituting a free trade EEEE because the AAS did not abolish tariffs on imports from the EEC. Rather, it imposed lower tariffs on EEC imports than on imports from other countries, and also abolished quantitative restrictions on the former imports while maintaining them on the latter. The potential impact of tariff preferences on AAS ex- ports to the EEC will be considered only for manufactured ex- ports. Two cases will be discussed: (1) exports of standardized commodities, and (ii) exports of differentiated commodities. 14 Impact of tariff preferences on AAS exports of standardized manufactures As will be shown in chapter III, standardized commodi- ties exported by the AAS to the EEC consist largely of pro- cessed agricultural products and processed raw materials which are not produced in the EEC countries. Furthermore, few sub- stitutes for these commodities are produced in the EEC. Under these circumstances, increased AAS exports to the EEC due to tariff preferences should yield relatively greater trade diver- sion than trade creation. The same outcome should also apply to EEC exports to the AAS. Thus, for standardized commodities, the main impact of tariff preferences should be trade diversion. In particular, this impact should be caused by a shift of EEC imports from Latin American and British Commonwealth Countries to the AAS. The size of the impact will be a function of the elasticity of supply of exports from the AAS and non—beneficiary countries, the elasticity of demand of imports by the EEC, the height of the tariff imposed on imports from non-beneficiary countries, and the difference in productive efficiency between the AAS and the latter countries. First, let us consider the case where the world supply of a commodity is perfectly elastic, and the AAS supplies a small fraction of the total EEC imports - an assumption which applies to many commodities exported by the AAS to the EEC. In this case, various developments could take place. In the short—term, the AAS may not be able to increase supply, eSpecially if an increase in supply means a larger 15 agricultural production. It will therefore simply increase its export prices by a percentage equal to the height of the tariff. In other words, the AAS will improve its terms of trade vis-a-vis the EEC. This outcome will not take place, however, if importers in the EEC countries have a monopoly 1, and thus appropriate most of power on imports from the AAS the value of the tariff in place of the AAS producers. In the longer term, and if the AAS producers do bene— fit from the tariff preferences, supply of exports from the AAS could be increased as a result of the higher prices AAS producers receive for their exports. If increase in produc- tion takes place at constant cost, increased diversion will occur in favour of the AAS. The only constraint to this diversion will be the productive capacity of the AAS. However, if the increase in production takes place under increasing costs, the competitive edge afforded the AAS by the tariff preference will be lowered. AAS exporters will increase ex- ports up to the point where profits are maximized. In general, this will occur before the tariff preference is fully absorbed by the increase in production costs. Another case treated by Johnson (4, pp. 189—190) may also apply to the AAS. This is the case where the supply firms in the AAS are subsidiaries of importing firms in the— EEC. 16 capacity of the AAS is large relative to the import demand of the EEC. As will be shown in chapter III, this case may apply to four or five commodities exported by the AAS to the EEC. Under conditions of perfect competition the AAS must, in this situation, sell its products to the EEC at the world market price. The only impact of trade preferences will be an in- crease of the quantity of AAS exports to the EEC. The AAS terms of trade with the EEC will not, in this case, improve. However, if the condition of perfect competition is dropped, the AAS may institute a system of price discrimination whereby export prices to the EEC may be set higher than export prices to the rest of the world, but lower or equal to the price tha EEC importers would have to pay in the absence of tariff pre— ferences. Being in a monopoly position, the AAS could adjust the export price to the EEC so as to maximize profits. In this case, exports to the EEC could be increased, and the AAS may in addition benefit from an improvement in its terms of trade with the EEC. A third situation which may be considered is one whereby EEC imports originate from a very small number of major exporters, some of these being AAS countries. In this case, AAS exporters could adjust their export prices to the EEC so as to maximize profits. This price adjustment would normally be accompanied by a shift of EEC imports from non- beneficiary countries to the AAS. However, this outcome will take place only under the condition where the non-beneficiary l7 suppliers to the EEC are unable to lower their export prices in order to maintain their market share in the EEC. These suppli- ers' export prices would have to be lowered by the full amount of the tariff imposed on their exports to the EEC, or by a fraction of the tariff if the AAS were to increase its export prices to the EEC. The capacity of non-beneficiary suppliers to offset the advantage afforded the AAS by tariff preferences will be a function of two factors: the height of the tariff and the production cost differential between AAS suppliers and non-beneficiary suppliers. In general, the lower the tariff and the higher the difference in production costs between AAS suppliers and non-beneficiary suppliers, the easier it will be for these latter suppliers to offset the AAS advantage. In any case, total exports to the EEC should increase. Depending on the circumstances, this increase will be supplied solely by the AAS or, proportionately, by all EEC suppliers. Impact of tariff preferences on AAS exports Bfidifferentiated commodities Differentiated commodities produced by countries within the AAS include a variety of goods from SITC Groups 0, l, 5, and 8 (see chapter III). While the EEC countries pro- duce few of the standardized commodities described earlier, or few substitutes for these commodities, they do produce a large number of the above differentiated commodities. Thus, the granting of tariff preferences could lead, in the case of these commodities, to both trade creation and trade diversion. For 18 example, an increase of EEO imports of shoes from the AAS due to the tariff preferences could lead to a decrease of domestic production in the EEC countries, as well as a decrease of im- ports from non-beneficiary countries. The analysis used for standardized commodities can also be applied to differentiated commodities, and would yield similar conclusions. Two variables should, however, play a greater role in the case of differentiated commodities. These variables are (i) the elasticity of substitution of commodities exported by the AAS for those produced in the EEC, and (ii) the elasticity of substitution of commodities ex— ported to the EEC by the AAS for those exported to the EEC by non-beneficiary countries. In general, the higher the value of these elasticities of substitution, the greater will be the scope for trade diversion and trade creation. It should also be noted that differentiated commodities include a larger proportion of consumer goods than do standard- ized commodities. Since tariff duties tend to be relatively high for consumer goods, the potential impact of tariff pre- ferences should be relatively greater for differentiated commodities than for standardized ones. It is not, however, certain that the AAS will actually take advantage of these preferences by substantially increasing its export of the differentiated commodities to the EEC. A number of factors which may constrain such an expansion will be reviewed in section 4 of this chapter. l9 3. Methodology for the evaluation of the AAS response to EEC tariff—preferences There exists a large number of methods for evaluating the impact of various forms of economic integration. Some of these methods were reviewed by Kreinin (5) who concluded that "each approach... is fraught with dangers arising from its own heroic assumptions", and "the only hope of arriving at approximate orders of magnitude lies in utilising a variety of methods and comparing the results" (5, p.900). In this section, various evaluation methods will be reviewed, including the one selected for this study. These methods were developed in order either to predict the impact of a potential or recently establiShed union, or to determine whether a union has had the expected impact. Given the purpose of this study, we will be concerned primarily with the latter type of evaluation methods. Comparing hypothetical estimates to actual values One method of determining whether tariff preferences have had the expected impact is to compare hypothetical estimates of what trade flows, growth rates, market shares, etc. would have been in the absence of preferences to the actual values of these parameters. If the hypothetical estimates are approximately equal to the actual values, it may be concluded that the tariff preferences have had the expected impact. Various hypothetical estimates have been used to determine whether a union has had the expected impact. 20 One approach, reviewed by Kreinin (5) and used by the EFTA secretariat (6), among others, compared the hypothetical share of imports in total consumption to the actual share for the year 1965. The hypothetical share was estimated on the basis of a projection of pre-integration trends during the 1954-59 period. The EFTA secretariat thus obtained estimates of trade creation and trade diversion for major commodity groups. In this approach, it is assumed that the share of imports in total consumption would have developed over the 1959—65 period in the same manner as during the 1954-59 period. Similar approaches have been used, ranging from simple extrapolations of pre-integration growth rates of export values or market shares to extrapolation of a world trade matrix. These approaches suffer from many weaknesses. First, in most cases they do not take into consideration new developments in world trade, such as other trade agreements, or trade negocia- tions yielding global tariff cuts. Second, income and price movements are not usually taken into consideration. Third, changes in the countries' competitive position which affect the ratio of import to domestic prices are usually neglected. Despite these weaknesses, the above approaches can be useful if applied in conjunction with other approaches. Comparing pre-integration to ppst-integration estimates of various parameters One evaluation method adopted by Balassa (7) compares the post-integration income elasticity of demand for imports 21 to the pre-integration income elasticity. Let us define: MI = intra-union imports I3 I! E extra—union imports Y = sum of the GNPs of member countries. The income elasticity of demand for intra-union imports, a , and that for extra-union imports, B , may then be estimated from the following equations: Log MI = a + aLog Y and Log ME = b + BLog Y Trade creation is indicated by an increase in the value of a.from a period preceeding the union to a period following the union. On the other hand, trade diversion is indicated by a decrease in the value of B between the same two periods. ‘ There are two main criticisms of this evaluation method. First, it assumes that income elasticities of import demand would have remained unchanged in the absence of the union. Second, it neglects changes in supply conditions (e.g., changes in competitiveness). A second evaluation method, used by Kreinin (5) to evaluate trade creation and trade diversion resulting from the establishment of the EEC, compares the pre-integration import/consumption ratio to the post-integration ratio. The change in the "total imports/consumption" ratio measures trade creation while the change in the "extra-EEC imports/ consumption" ratio measures trade diversion. Kreinin 22 recqgnzeS‘mxn;factors other than economic integration could affect the import/consumption ratios (e.g., income and price movements). In order to isolate the integration effect, it is necessary to know what changes in the ratios would have occured in the absence of integration. Kreinin uses for this purpose a "control group" or "normaliser" approach. He assumes that "the factors affecting the import/consumption ratios moved over the period of the 19608 in an identical fashion in both the EEC and in the 'control' countries, and that the reaction of the economy to these changes was the same in both markets". (5, p.902). Consequently, import/consumption ratios may be adjusted for non-integration effects. Kreinin's method is an improvement over other methods in the sense that it isolates the integration effects from other effects. Its application may, however, present several problems. First, it may be difficult to find the proper "control group" or "normaliser". Second, the statistical data which are required (e.g., output, wholesale prices) are not usually available for many developing countries. Use of multiple regression analysis Another evaluation method makes use of multiple re- gression'analysis with trade preferences being one of the in- dependent variables. Aitken and Obutelewicz (8) applied such a method to evaluate the respective impacts of EEC tariff pre- ferences on AAS exports, and of AAS tariff preferences on BBC exports. Two different regression equations were fitted to 23 estimate these two impacts. Given the relevance of the Aitken— Obutelewicz paper to this study, their evaluation method is reviewed in some detail. The two regression equations are shown below: LXad = b'O + blLDad + b2LYa + bBLYd BC EEC FTM + b4LPad + b5LPad + b6LPad FA , + b7LPad + e ad .......................

The authors estimated the two regression equations for each year of the l958-l97l period. They considered that tariff preferences had an impact on AAS exports to the EEC if the PEEC coefficient increased in value from 1958 to 1971, and was statistically non-significant at the beginning of the period but significant in the latter part of the period. The same type of results for the coefficient PAAC was considered to show that the AAS preferences had an impact on EEC exports to the AAS. The above evaluation method should, theorwatically, isolate the effect of tariff preferences on exports from the preference—receiving country. However, its application by 25 Aitken and Obutelewicz calls for two main criticisms. First, with respect to equation 1 (impact of EEC preferences on AAS exports), the authors should not have restricted the analysis to African exporters only. It is possible that AAS exports to the EEC compete primarily with exports from non-African countries, either developed or developing. If this were the case, PEEC would reflect both the impact of tariff preferences and the increased competitiveness of the AAS. It may not, therefore, be‘concluded that a large and significant PEEC coefficient at the end of the period proves that the tariff preferences had an impact. Second, the authors should have applied their evaluation method to individual commodities rather than to global exports. Let us suppose that a large proportiOn of commoditiesexported by the AAS to the EEC differ in type and quality from those exported by non-AAS African countries (e.g., Tunisia and Morocco). Let us further suppose that a shift in EEC demand in favor of AAS products occurs for reasons unrelated to tariff preferences (e.g., as the result of a change in taste, a sub- stitution for other products, etc.). Under these circumstances the EEC would increase its imports relatively more from the AAS than from non-AAS African countries. Thus, it could not be concluded that a high and significant PEEC coefficient proves that tariff preferences had the expected impact. If the evalua- tion method were applied to individual commodities, especially standardized commodities, the possibility of changes in demand 26 due to factors other than tariff preferences would be greatly reduced. Evaluation method used in this study The evaluation methodadopted in this study is a modified version of that used by Young (9). The method can be reliably used in order to determine whether the AAS res- ponded positively to the EEC tariff preferences.‘ It may also be used, with less reliability, in order to estimate the net impact of tariff preferences. It may not, however, be used to obtain separate estimates of trade diversion and trade creation for the purpose of estimating the net welfare impact of these” preferences. The method will now be described in general terms, and it will then be shown how it could be applied to the EEC- AAS trade arrangement. I (The rate of growth of exports from one country to any other country is a function of the following four factors: (1) the growth of effective demand for imports in theimporting country, (ii) the ability of the exporting country to increase its exports so as to meet this growth of demand, and its ability to produce these exports at competitive prices, (iii) the ‘ granting of tariff preferences in favor of the exporting country, and (iv) the establishment of a special relationship between the exporting and importing country, giving rise to special privileges in favor of the two countries (e.g., monetary arrangement, foreign investment privileges). V The purpose of the evaluation is to isolate the impact of factor (iii). This may be achieved by using two groups of 27 "control" countries in addition to the groups of preference- receiving and preferenceegiving countries. Let us define X1 and X2 as, respectively, the group of exporters which was granted tariff preferences and that which was not. Let us also define I1 and 12 as, respectively, the group of importing countries which granted the tariff pre- ferences to X l’ and that whiCh did not. Let us finally define G as the rate of growth of exports from country i to country 13 j during the period since the preferences were granted. We may then set out the following table of growth rates: 3.1. 3.2. 3_ G11 G12 X2 G21 G22 A high value cf Gll may be due to factor (i) - i.e., a high rate of growth of imports by Il due to increased demand, or to factors (iii) - tariff preferences - and (iv) - special privi- leges. Let us assume, for the time being, that no special privileges were established during the period of analysis. Then, in order to isolate the effect of tariff preferences, we first consider the difference between G11 and G21. A dif- ference greater than zero could be an indication that the tariff preferences had the expected positive impact on Xl exports to I1 since changes in Il demand should affect exports from X1 and X2 equally. A difference of growth rates greater than zero does not, however, indicate by itself a positive impact of tariff 28 preferences. A higher growth rate of exports from Xl could also be an indication of an increased over-all competitiveness of X1 exporters (i.e., a higher growth rate could be attributed to factor (ii)). An indication of this increased competitive- ness may be provided by a comparison of 012 to G22. If the difference between G12 and 022 is greater than zero, it may be concluded that the X1 countries have become, over-all, more competitive. If the higher growth rate of exports from X1 countries to I1 countries were due only to the greater competitiveness of the former countries, then the following relationship should hold: (G - G - (G 11 21) 12 ‘ G22) = 0 If the above difference is greater than zero, it can be con- cluded that the tariff preferences had an impact on X1 exports to 11' If it is known that special privileges were established during the period of analysis, it is not possible to conclude that tariff preferences had an impact (i.e., the difference between G11 and G21 may be due to special privileges only). Under these circumstances, the analysis becomes extremely complicated since it is difficult to quantify the effect of special privileges on X1 exports to 11' Let us now show how the above evaluation method could be applied to the EEC-AAS trade arrangement. First, it may be noted that special privileges and ties 29 do exist between the AAS and France. However, these privileges were already established prior to the association arrangement, and have not changed substantially since then. The effect of special privileges may therefore be considered to have remained constant over the period of analysis.1 Next, this method of evaluation requires that a choice be made of "control" countries. Three alternative choices of X2 countries could be of potential interest: (1) the world, ex- cluding the EEC2 and AAS countries, (ii) all other developing countries, and (iii) a group of developing countries similar in many characteristics (e.g., per capita income, size) to the AAS countries. The choice among the above alternatives will depend on the purpose of the analysis. In the present study, the purpose is to determine whether the AAS has displaced its principal competitors on the EEC market as a result of tariff preferences. AAS exports to the EEC compete primarily with exports from other African countries and from countries in Latin America and Asia. The group of X2 countries adopted for this study therefore in- cludes all developing countries, with the exclusion of the AAS. 1It is possible that de-colonisation has reduced the importance of these privileges. However, since the period of analysis (1962-69) directly follows the granting of independence, the impact of decolonisation may be considered constant over the period of analysis. 2The EEC countries are excluded because they benefit from the same tariff preferences. 30 The choice of I2 countries is much easier to make. As will be shown in chapter III, the bulk of AAS exports goes to AAS countries and to industrialized countries outside the socialist bloc. The group of Izcountries adopted for this study thus includes industrialized countries other than the EEC and socialist countries. Having chosen the "control" countries, it must be de- cided whether the evaluation method should be applied to indi- vidual commodities or to over-all exports or groups of exports. The application of the method to individual commodities (e.g., commodities at the 5 digit SITC level) seems preferable for two reasons. First, as stated earlier with respect to the Aitken-Obutelewicz study (8), application of the method to over-all exports could yield invalid conclusions. Second, it is of interest to find out if the size of the impact is function of the height of the tariff imposed on non-beneficiary countries. 4. Trade theories and tariff preferences As indicated in section 1, the impact of tariff pre- ferences on exports from the preference-receiving country de- pends in part on the height of the tariff prevailing prior to the establishment of the union and on production cost dif- ferentials between the preference—receiving country and both the preference-giving and the non-beneficiary countries. Cost differentials reflect the comparative advantage or disadvantage that the preference-receiving country has vis-a-vis the other countries in the production and export of particular commodities. 31 For trade creation to take place with respect to a given commodity, the preference-receiving country must enjoy a com- parative advantage vis-a-vis the preference-giving country. On the other hand, for trade diVersion to take place, the preference-receiving country must have both a comparative advantage vis-a-vis the preference-giving country and a comparative disadvantage vis-a-vis non-beneficiary countries. In order to demonstrate that a country has responded as fully as possible to tariff preferences, it must be shown that: (1) its exports of manufactures to the preference-giving country have grown at the expected rate, and (ii) all commodi- ties for which it has a comparative advantage vis-a—vis the preference-giving country were in fact exported to this country. The evaluation method described in section 3 of this chapter fulfills only condition (1). In order to fulfill condition (ii), a list of commodities for which the preference-receiving country enjoys a comparative advantage should be established and compared to the list of commodities actually exported to the preference-giving country. Such a comparison will indicate the extent to which the preference-receiving country has taken advantage of tariff preferences. To establish the above list, one must apply current comparative advantage theories with respect to the preference- receiving and preference-giving countries. There are currently six main comparative advantage 52 theoriesl, ranging from the path-breaking Heckscher-Ohlin (H-O) theory of international trade to more recent theories such as the technological gap and the product cycle theories. Theore- tically, the application of these different theories to a given country would yield different lists of commodities for which the country enjoys a comparative advantage. However, as shown by Hufbauer (10), there is a great deal of overlap among these theories, and there should therefore be considerable overlap among the commodity lists resulting from the application of the theories. It is outside the scope of this study to identify the commodities for which the AAS enjoys a comparative advantage vis-a-vis the EEC. We must therefore rely on completed studies relating to developing countries, the assumption being that conclusions derived from these studies apply at least in part to the AAS. A study by Lary (11) adopted the approach advocated by Kenen (12) who combines the H-0 factor proportions theory and the human skills theory into a "new" factor proportions theory of trade. In this approach, "value added per employee" is used as a guide to factor intensity in manufacturing. The, higher the value added per employee, the more capital—intensive is the industry; the lower the value added, the more labour- intensive it is. Using this approach, Lary established a long list of labour-intensive commodities of potential interest to g V 1For a review of these theories, see Hufbauer (10). 33 less developed countries. This list was used in this study to identify the commodities for which the AAS is likely to enjoy a comparative advantage vis-a-vis the EEC. Obviously, it is not necessary that the AAS export all commodities in the above list to the EEC in order to conclude that there was a positive response to tariff preferences. Given the economic size of the AAS countries, they can specialize in the production and export of only some of these commodities. It was therefore decided to select from the list only those commodities produced in the AAS during the period under review. This shortened list was compared to the list of commodities actually exported to the EEC in order to assess the extent to which the AAS responded to the tariff preferences. Potential constraints on the AAS response The fact that a country enjoys a comparative advantage in the production and export of a number of commodities does not imply that these commodities will actually be exported. A potential comparative advantage may not be exploited for a number of reasons. One important reason, which does not apply to AAS exports to the EEC, is the existence of various barriers to trade (e.g., quotas, prohibitive tariffs) imposed by the importing country. Other reasons include high transport costs, adoption of industrial policies focusing on import substitution rather than export expansion, etc. Two main factors may constrain AAS attempts to respond to EEC tariff preferences by producing and exporting to the EEC 34 commodities for which n enjoysa potential comparative advantage. First, although the AAS may enjoy a potential compara- tive advantage in the production and export of labour-intensive, low-skill intensive Commodities, it may not have the capacity to produce and export these commodities to the EEC. Industrial production, however labour-intensive or low-skill intensive, requires a minimal level of technological know-how, quality control, and skilled labour in order to yield goods of the type and quality required by EEC consumers. Furthermore, the marketing of these goods requires good managerial skills and the existence of good marketing channels. (The lack of indi- genous technical and managerial skills, or the lack of foreign investors who provide such skills, may impede the growth of AAS exports to the EEC. Second, with respect to finished goods, tariff pre- ferences may have little impact on trade expansion from the AAS if, as hypothesized by Brown (13),.product differentiation is more important than price differentiation as a determinant of the pattern of trade. Brown's hypothesis is that the com- petitiveness of an exporter is less a function of the price of the exported commodity than of the particular characteristics of the commodity which differentiate it from other commodities of the same type. Thus, product differentiation provides the exporter with a competitive edge which is not offset by existing jprice differentials. Brown's hypothesis is supported by several 35 instances of empirical evidence. For example, the creation of the EEC did not make the export structure of individual EEC countries more skewed. Instead, each country is exporting and importing more, but trade is more heavily intra-industry than inter-industry (14). In a similar vein, the Swedish textile industry has been rejuvenated by specializing in luxury textile products instead of competing against exports from LDCs. An implication of comparative advantage theories is that the more dissimilar the economic structures of two countries, the greater should be the scope for mutually bene- ficial trade. Thus, the lowering or removal of trade barriers between a group of developed countries and a_group of developing countries should result in a substantial expansion of trade be- tween these two groups. This expansion may not, however, take place if, as hypothesized by Linder (15), trade is likely to be more intense between countries with similar rather than dis— similar economic structures. If the Linder theory is valid, the impact of trade preferences granted to developing countries should be minimal. It is therefore of interest to determine whether the AAS export pattern supports the Linder theory. The following section will describe this theory in some detail. 5. The Linder similarity of preferences theory and tariffpreferences1 In his Essay on Trade and Transformation (15), Linder distinguishes between trade in primary products and trade in -. 1The material in this section refers to chapter III of iJlnder's book (15). 36 manufactures. While he accepts the orthodox theories of the determinants of trade patterns (e.g., the H-0 theory, the product cycle theory) for the former products, he rejects these theories for the latter products. Linder's theory contrasts sharply with other theories of the commodity composi- tion of trade because it predicts that trade in manufactures should be most intense between countries with similar, rather than dissimilar, economic structures. The Linder theory According to Linder, the qualities and types of manu- factured commodities consumed by a country are characteristic of its level of development and industrial structure. Thus, manufactures must be of a type and quality which cater to the needs and tastes of the local p0pulation. This proposition regarding the effects of demand is fairly obvious and does not need further elaboration. . The Linder approach differs from other approaches primarily with respect to the supply side. According to the orthodox trade theories, comparative advantage, however defined, determines what is produced in a country. Thus, commOdities may be produced for the foreign markets even though there is no ciemand for such goods in the home market. In other words, home demand does not necessarily dictate the pattern of local pro— duction. Furthermore, since countries which differ in terms Of comparative advantage also differ in terns of their economic Structures, trade should be most intense between countries 37 which have differing economic structures. When analysing the factors which determine home pro— duction, Linder reaches different conclusions. According to Linder, entrepreneurs involved in the production of manu- factured goods tend to respond first to the needs of the society in which they live. Four main reasons are offered to explain this behavior. First, when faced with uncertainty, producers are more likely to respond to the profit opportunities of which they have the greatest knowledge. These opportunities inevitably appear in the home market. Second, local needs are the most likely to stimulate technological change and innova- tion, the result being that newly developed products are usually unsuited to foreign needs and tastes. Third, the production and marketing of manufactured goods, especially differentiated commodities, generally requires development work that must be carried out in close contact with the market. Crucial informa- tion must be readily available to the entrepreneur during the trial-and-error period that occurs during the early stages of production. Finally, psychological as well as material factors (e.g., administrative problems, high marketing costs, distance) :further explain why an entrepreneur tends to learn about profit capportunities in the domestic market before investigating ‘profit opportunities abroad. In summary, it can be said that the production functions 0f manufactures demanded at home tend to be viewed as relatively more advantageous by the entrepreneurs. Consequently, domestic 38 production tends to reflect domestic demand, and only in special cases does it also reflect factors underlying orthodox comparative advantage theories. As the home market becomes more and more saturated, leaving little room for further expansion, entrepreneurs begin investigating the possibilities of exporting their ‘products to foreign markets. Linder sees international trade as "nothing but an extension across national frontiers of a country's own web of economic activity" (15, p.88). Production being originally geared to the needs and tastes of the home country, exported goods will have to satisfy similar needs and tastes. Since the types and qualities of goods consumed locally are in part a function of the stage of development of a country, as expressed, for example, by its per capita income (PCI) level, manufactured goods produced in one country are in demand primarily in countries at a similar stage of development (i.e., with a similar PCI level). Thus, according to the Linder theory, export and import "baskets" for a given country should be highly similar. Furthermore, the more similar the economic structures and levels of development of two countries, 'the more similar one country's composition of exports will be to the other country's composition of imports. Why does trade take place between two countries when their production and consumption patterns are highly similar? Linder answers this question by hypothesizing that mutually beneficial trade stems from the marginal satisfaction which differentiated products 39 bring to consumers in the two trading countries. Linder States, in particular, that "the almost unlimited scope for product differentiation - real or adVertised - could, in combination with the seemingly unrestricted buyer idiosyn- crasies, make possible flourishing trade in what is virtually the same commodity" (15, p.102). As an illustration of this argument, "buyer idiosyncrasy" could explain why Italy exports Fiats to Germany and imports German VWs. I Linder recognizes that while similarity in economic structures constitutes a trade-creating force, actual trade may not reach its full potential between two countries with similar structures due to various trade-breading forces. Distance between countries is the main trade—breaking force advanced by Linder. Distance is considered a proxy for both transport costs and limited trade horizons (i.e., entrepreneurs are less likely to be aware of market opportunities in far— away countries than in neighboring countries). Other trade- breaking forces include cultural dissimilarity (e. g. , different languages), political strains, various types of trade barriers. Given the importance accorded by Linder to product differentiation as a factor generating trade, the theory should apply better to highly differentiated products (finished con- finnner goods) than to standardized semimanufactures. Balassa (16) provides support for the Linder theory but suggests that its validity is restricted to finished manufactures. He pro- Poses that, for small countries, orthodox trade theories 4o (e.g., the H-0 theory) explain the export pattern of semi- manufactures. The reason is that these products do not gene- rally require the availability of a home market. He illus- trates this point by stating that there are "numberous examp- les, in countries as diverse as Belgium, Hong Kong, and Por- tugal where domestic consumption plays only a supplementary role as market outlet for standardized manufactures." (l6,p.203) Like any other theory, the Linder similarity of pre- ferences theory applies under a number of assumptions. The most important assumption is that exports are produced by local entrepreneurs rather than by foreign investors. If this is not the case, a country may produce commodities which do not reflect the home demand, and may export these commodities to countries with dissimilar economic and industrial structures. This outcome can be explained by the fact that foreign investors are responding to demand conditions in theirigwn home country, but are producing abroad in order to take advantage of some relatively low priced factor of production (e.g., low wages). Such production usually takes place only after development work in the investors' home country has been completed. Very often, production consists solely in plant assembly of components produced in the investors' country. It may therefore be con- cluded that the larger the number of foreign investors in a country, the more its export pattern will tend to differ from the one predicted by the Linder theory. In other words, the existence of foreign investments tends to invalidate the Linder theory in the same way as it invalidates the factor proportions 41 theory. In the former case, these investments make it possible for a country to gear its production to satisfy foreign demand, while in the latter case, they make it possible for a country to produce and export commodities for which the country does not enjoy a comparative advantage (e.g., capital-intensive mining products, steel, chemicals). Linder reaches a similar conclusion with respect to trade in raw materials, stating: "If entrepreneurship could not move internationally, it is quite possible that our proposition could be applied to trade in primary products as well as manufactures" (15, p.93). Previous tests of the Linder theory Various trade models based on the Linder theory have been tested in recent years. The first test of the theory_was performed by Linder himself. He attempted to show that the average propensity to import (API) of one country from another is negatively correla- ted with the absolute value of the difference in per capita income between the two countries (IAPCID. Using a sample of 32 developing and developed countries, he plotted for each country the (API) values against the (IAPCID values. To support the theory, the graph should resemble an inverted V centered around the per capita income level of the exporting country. .Alimbugh the results of this test were not conclusive, they did Suggest that the thesis isworthy of further consideration. Hufbauer (10) attempted to test two different inter— Pretations of the Linder theory. The first interpretation is 42 that similarity should exist between actual commodities im— ported and exported by a given nation. The second interpreta- tion is that similarity should exist between commodity charac- teristics embodied in a nation's imports and exports. To test the first interpretation of the theory, Hufbauer used, as a measure of trade similarity, the following index: CosX.M. = n l J ' 2 2 V 4;: Xin ' gmjn where: xin = exports of commodity n as a percentage of total manufactured exports from country i mjn = imports of commodity n as a percentage of total manufactured imports by country j When CoinMj equals one, there is complete identity between exports and imports. On the other, a value of zero means complete dissimilarity. Values of CoinMj derived from the 1965 three-digit ‘trade statistics were then used in the following two regression e quations: CoinM. 3 C1 + alAj + blAi when Ang. l and CoinMj 2 c2 + a2Aj + b2Ai when AJ.>,Ai 43 A. A. = per capita GDP of country i and country j, respectively The Linder theory implies that 01 should be smaller than 02, that al should be positive, and a2 should be negative.1 The converse results would, on the other hand, support the orthodox comparative advantage theories. Results from the above analysis supported neither Linder nor the orthodox trade theories. Both a1 and a2 were found to be positive, with approximately the same small value. Furthermore, it was found that the richer the trading partners, the more similar are imports and exports (i.e., the higher the value of CoinMj). Hufbauer concluded: "Broadly speaking, these findings represent nothing more than the diversification of exports and imports which accompanies greater affluence. Owing to concentration, especially export concentration, the opposing trade vectors of two poor countries, say Hong Kong and Portugal, will substantially differ, while thanks to diver- sification the import-export vectors of two rich nations, for example the United Kingdom and Sweden, will roughly coincide." (10, p.201). Hufbauer also tested the second interpretation of the ILinder theory, i.e., similarity of characteristics embodied in inmports and exports. This was done by ranking national imports ‘ lHufbauer included the variable A. in the two regression éflluations because the value of the cosine should also be a func- tlxon of the economic level of the exporting country. 44 and exports separately with respect to commodity characteristics. A positive correlation between the two rank lists would support the Linder theory, while a negative correlation would support the orthodox theories. The Spearman correlations were all found to be negative, but not significantly different from zero at the 1% level. On the basis of the results of the above two tests, Hufbauer concluded: "The comparatively weak showing of Heckscher-Ohlin might be interpreted either as a modest triumph for Linder or as the inevitable outcome of restrictive tariffs and quotas. The major point, though, is that trade gggg involve some exchange of characteristics?(10, p.207). Fortune (17) tested the Linder theory for finished manufactures in S.I.T.C. groups 7 and 8. He used the following regression equation: Mij/Yi = a + b-le / Nj - Yi / Nil + cDij where: Mij = imports of country i from country j Yj’Yi = GNP of countries j and i, in dollars Nj’Ni = population of countries j and i Dij = distance between countries 1 and j, in miles The regression equation was estimated for each of 25 exporting countries. The total number of observations for each regression was equal to 50 importing countries. Negative and significant values for the coefficients ‘b and c would support the Linder theory. However, the findings Iprvided only limited support for the theory. The coefficient (If the distance variable was negative in all cases, and was 45 significant at the 5% level in eleven of the 25 regressions. The difference in per capita income variable was significant at the 5% level in 9 cases, with the coefficient being negative in 7 out of the 9 cases (It was negative, but non- significant in 11 other cases.) Fortune concluded: "Never- theless, the results do give some support to the Linder hypothesis concerning similarities in income levels as a prerequisite for trade in finished manufactures. However, the low coefficients of determination for all the regressions show that even in those cases where the per capita income variable is a significant determinant of trade intensities, it is hardly the only one." (17, p.317). The validity of the Linder theory cannot be assessed unless the theory is properly tested. The fact that the above tests failed to support the theory or provided only limited support, could be due to a too strict interpretation of the theory, or to inadequate testing methodology. Since it is probable that the theory applies best to differentiated manufactures, testing of the theory should be performed separately for standardized commodities and dif- ferentiated commodities. Unfortunately, Linder tested his theory for global exports, including both manufactured and primary commodities, while Hufbauer and Fortune tested the theory for global manufactures, including both standardized and differentiated commodities. Second, both Linder and Fortune failed to take into 46 consideration the size of the exporting country. Exports from a large country A to a country C should be larger than those of a small country B to the same country C, even though per capita incomes in countries A and B are equal. Thus, im- port intensity should be partly a function of the size of the exporting country (e.g., GNP of the exporting country). Third, income distribution should also affect a country's average propensity to import. If two countries have different income distributions, their average propensi- ties to import from a third country may differ even though their per capita incomes are equal. This is recognized by Linder who Stated that median rather than average income levels would better reflect the demand structure for imports whenever "the distribution of income within the countries is very uneven." (15, p.113). Thus, the fact that the above tests did not support the theory could be explained by the use of average rather than median PCIs. Fourth, as suggested by Fortune, difference in per capita income may not constitute the only major independent variable. His test of Linder included a second variable, distance. There may be other major trade-breaking and trade- creating variables. For example, political relations between two countries could either reinforce or impede trade while cultural similarity should favor trade. The validity of the Inain Linder explanatory variable ( IAPCID can only be zissessed if it is included in a model which incorporates I all relevant variables. 47 To summarize, proper testing of the Linder theory re- quires that the theory be tested separately for differentiated and standardized commodities, that median rather than average income levels be used, that the size of the exporting countries be taken into consideration, and that all relevant independent variables be included. We propose that the test be performed for a Linder-based model of the following general form: (API)ij f( IAPCIMlij, Yj, Dij, ij, ij, Tij) where: H (API)ij average propensity to import of country i from country j. IAPCIMIij = absolute difference in median per capita income between countries 1 and j. Y. = GNP of exporting country j. J Dij = distance between countries i and j. Pij = binary variable for political ties between countries 1 and j. Cij = binary variable for cultural similarity. Tij = binary variable for trade agreement. In chapter IV, a modified version of the above model will be tested in order to determine whether the AAS export pattern supports the Linder theory. Linder theory and tariff preferences From the perspective of the Linder theory, tariff pre- .ferences should have a limited impact on exports of manufactured (mammodities, especially differentiated manufactures, from the 4s preferenCe-receiving country. Since, according to the theory, potential comparative advantage does not determine potential trade intensity between countries with dissimilar economic structures, the removal of trade barriers should not have a significant impact on actual trade intensities between these countries. On the other hand, if trade barriers exist between countries with similar economic structures, they may constitute a major trade-breaking force, and their removal should permit actual trade intensity to coincide with potential trade intensity. In the case of the EEC-AAS trade arrangement, the theory predicts that the tariff preferences should have virtually no impact on AAS exports of differentiated com- modities to the EEC, and only a limited impact on exports of standardized commodities. These two propositions will be tested in chapter IV. 10. ll. 12. 49 LIST OF REFERENCES . J. Viner, The Customs Union Issue, New York: Carnegie Endowment fbrflnternationaldPeace, 1950. . J.E.

The evaluation framework . The purpose of this chapter is to determine whether, during the 1962-1969 period, the AAS responded in a positive manner to tariff preferences granted its manufactured exports by the EEC. Several types of analyses will be used in order to evaluate the AAS response. Although no single analysis yields fully conclusive answers regarding the AAS response, the over-all information generated by the analyses should provide an adequate basis for a reasonably conclusive evaluation of the AAS response. Section 2 of this chapter describes changes in the pattern of total EEC imports and total AAS exports, and applies the methodology developed in chapter II in order to determine whether the AAS responded to the tariff preferences by expanding its total exports to the EEC. Although this study is concerned with manufactured AAS exports, the analy- sis of over-all trade will be useful in qualifying findings regarding trade in manufactures. Section 3 applies the same methodology to global manufactured exports from the AAS. lSection 4 analyzes the AAS export pattern for various groups cxf manufactures in order to determine whether the growth of iflle market share of exports to the EEC is higher or lower ifllan that of exports to other groups of countries. Section 5 51 52 applies the methodology developed in chapter II to a number of individual manufactured commodities at the 3-digit SITC ‘ level. Homogeneous data at the 5—digit level could not be obtained for this analysis. .The data that could be obtained for individual commodities at the 5-digit level are analyzed, in section 6, using a modified version of the methodology developed in chapter 11. Section 7 compiles a list of labour- intensive, low-skill intensive commodities exported by the AAS to countries other than EEC countries. Finally, section 8 pools the information generated in the previous sections in order to evaluate the AAS response to EEC tariff preferences. Period of analysis Since the EEC-AAS trade agreement took place in 1958, the period of analysis should cover a span from pre-agreement through post-agreement years (e.g., 1950-1970 period). Un- fortunately, homogeneous and comprehensive data for AAS ex- ports are not available for years prior to 1962. This year was therefore selected as the first year of the analysis period. The length of the period of analysis was selected on the basis of two criteria. First, it should be long enough to allow for the impact of tariff preferences to take place. Second, as far as possible, the analysis period should not include years in which EEC has established trade agreements with other countries. If these years were included, the evaluation of the AAS response would become much more com- 1)lex because of lack of proper control countries. 53 A review of EEO trade agreements with countries other than the AAS shows that, starting in 1969, the EEC has granted tariff preferences to Tunisia and Morocco (1 September 1969), and to the East African Community, i.e., Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania (Agreement concluded on 24 September 1969, effective beginning 1971). Further- more, on July 1, 1971, the EEC granted substantial tariff preferences to the majority of LDCs by instituting its own GSP. Under these circumstances, it was decided to adopt a period of analysis covering the years 1962 to 1969. The adopted period should be long enough (11 years from 1958) to allow for the impact of EEO preferences to take place. It could be argued that EEC tariffs imposed on manufactured AAS exports were not fully removed until 1968, and thus, the period should extend beyond 1969. However, as shown in Table l, tariffs imposed in 1962 on EEC imports from outside the AAS are double those imposed on imports from the AAS. This tariff differential should constitute a sub- stantial incentive for the AAS countries to expand their exports to the EEC at a relatively higher rate than non- beneficiary countries. Estimation method for rowth rates of the value and market sHare of exports Growth rates of the value and market share of ex- jports are used in the analyses presented in sections 2 to 6 017this chapter. The method used to estimate these growth 54 .iem .av puma .omm "maonmswm .mwauacseeou on» no mmaua>auo¢ on» so phenom Hmuocoo awash .conmaEEoo 0mm «mouaom ooa ma ma mm om ow OH on on CA ov 00 OH on on 0H ow ov 0H 05 on OH on on 0H ca 0H 0H .m<< ms» scum mason ISA so venom ISA ma noanz mmaumu accumuxm coesoo 0mm ecu mo ommuzoouom macauoaoou m>auwasafizo Ho>oa nmma humusMH H no moms meoHuoapou HMQOH>H©GH ow.b.a no.5.a mm.H.H mo.H.H mw.h.H Nm.h.H ~o.a.a Ho.H.H ow.h.a ¢m.H.H “undo away Wand 03H EON“ mn«H0nmEH UQHDUOMHDCME GO ON“ ”SUV HO mCOHHUDUOH MNNHflalch WAQ‘E 55 rates is by fitting an exponential trendline to the time series data for the 1962-1969 period, and calculating the grthh rate on the bais of the estimated value of the slope. Let us define: yo, yt value of the dependent variable (e.g., market share) at years c and year t, respectively. r = the average growth rate for the period. Then: y = y (l + 1")t t 0 Taking the logarithm of the above expression gives: Log yt = Log yo + t Log(l + r) The above equation may be rewritten: Log yt = a + b.t Using the least-square method, we obtain an estimate b for b, that is an estimate for Log(l + r). The estimated average growth rate, r, is then equal to: A r = eb - 1 In applying the least-square method, the values of t range from t = o for 1962 to t = 7 for 1969. The mean for the period is obtained by calculating the expected value of the dependent variable for t = 3.5. 2. Analysis of total AAS exports and EEC imports , Although the purpose of this chapter is to evaluate the AAS response to tariff preferences granted to their Inanufactured exports, it is of interest to analyze the over-all 56 AAS response to tariff preferences. On the basis of this analysis, it will be possible to determine whether the over- all AAS response concurs with the AAS response in the case of manufactured exports. The knowledge of whether the two responses concur may help explain the role of tariff pre- ferences with respect to export expansion from beneficiary countries. First, changes in the EEC pattern of imports will be compared to changes in the AAS pattern of exports over the period of analysis. Second, the methodology developed in chapter II will be used in order to assess the over-all AAS response to tariff preferences. Changes in the pattern of EEO imports and AAS exports over the period ofanaIysIs Table 2 provides the growth of the share of EEC imports from the world, the AAS and "other LDCs", as well as the growth of the share of AAS exports to the world, the EEC and the "Rest of the World" (ROW). First, it can be seen that the growth rates of the shares of EEC imports from the AAS and "other LDCs" are approximately equal (—3.04 versus -3.21), and both are negative. Thus, tariff pre- ferences do not seem, on the basis of this limited analysis, to have had an impact on AAS exports to the EEC. (This con- clusion is based on the assumption that the growth rate of the share of imports from "other LDCs" constitutes a proxy of what the growth rate of the share of imports from the AAS \would have been in the absence of preferences. .A>uucsoo m<¢ gone now oco .noaumwumum opmuu mo mossHo> vHV mwma new wood .omImmmH xoon use» I moum«00mm< I mcaumauoum ensue cmaouom "paw AHH one H mossao>v onma .mowuaczaaou :omQOusm on» No ooauuo Houaumaumum "mdommsum .mehme x009 use» I moutaUOmmd I moaumflunum opens cmamuOh .uoauacsseou cmomousm ecu mo scammo Hoowumauoum mmmmmmflMlmflfl Amy I Ame .m .H wesHo>v HhmH .mwuacsaiou cmomousm may no oofluwo Houaumauwum ”uaomuzum .owma I mwma.xoon use» I mwuuaoonmd I mowumwumum mouse cmaouom 57 .moauacsssou suomowsm on» no ooawmo Hooaumauoum "muwmmsa 0mm Asa uoowsom mm.mm em.v on.sm ov.mm o~.om oa.om mm.mn .Wv.mm v~.s~ mm.e~ m: o-.oem mo.ma mmv.mam omm.oom www.mmm mom.vmm oom.ovm mmo.m~m Hsv.vam mmm.mmH > onoz one no umom N~.oo mm.m I on.~o oo.ao ve.mm om.mo se.sm Hm.om ma.~s No.~e m2 who.vcm mm.e saa.mwm omo.mom sem.omo vam.amm omo.omo www.mvm ave.~nm mmm.emv > can oo.ooH I oo.ooH oo.ooH oo.ooa oo.ooa oo.ooa oo.ooH oo.ooa oo.ooa m: qm~.voo.a ve.m omm.vmm.a coo.moM.H mov.mmo.H o~a.mmo.a omv.smm mmo.oem ~H~.sms asm.amo > oawoz «mm muummmm was mv.o~ H~.m I av.ea oo.ma em.ma me.ma mm.ma ma.0m Ha.o~ mm.mm ms mem.e~v.m em.c ooo.ama.ma ooa.mcm.aa ooe.amo.oa oom.mvv.oa ooa.mve.m oom.mmo.m oom.mma.m oov.emm.m > mood wonuo om.H vo.m I ov.a om.H om.H mm.a Hm.a om.a ms.a mn.a m: ooo.mam mm.m oov.ooo.a oom.0mm 00m.mmm oo.amm oom.ome ooH.oom oom.mmm oom.eao > was oo.ooa I oo.ooa oo.ooa oo.ooa oo.ooa oo.ooa oo.ooa oo.ooa oo.ooa m: ooo.vvn.om oa.oa oom.mem.ms ooo.mmm.am ooo.moo.mm ooa.emc.mm 00m.omm.me oom.omm.ve ooo.vae.ov ooo.mmc.mm > oawoz .

The over-all growth of AAS exports to the world (+9.74%) is approximately equal to that of EEC imports from the world (+lO.lO%). Moreover, as shown in Table 2, the growth rate of the market share of AAS exports to the EEC decreased, on the average, by 2.29% while that of AAS ex- ports to the rest of the world increased, on the average, by 4.87% per annum. The lack of AAS response to tariff preferences must therefore be attributed to factors other than the incapacity of the AAS to expand exports to the EEC. One such factor could be that the AAS is over-all less price competitive than "other LDCs".. Thus, the compe- titive edge provided by the tariff preferences could be offset by a growth of AAS prices higher than that of "other LDCs". In order to determine whether such factor did affect the AAS export performance, we must find out whether the growth rate of AAS exports to "other DMECs" (i.e., Developed Market Economy Countries other than the EEC Countries) is also lower than that of "other LDCs". This will now be done by applying the methodology developed in chapter II. AAS response to tariff preferences for over-all exports It may be recalled, from chapter 11, that in order to isolate the impact of tariff preferences, one must control 59 m manmfi ca manomxo m<¢ you uwsw mu meow “In canoe .msma .nseozo ”xwoa 3oz "muwomxo was Am. smbma I acqumauoum ucmBmon>oa can dough HmcoHuocuuucH mo xoonccum .Q.dm vem.s~m.m www.cem.am mam.os~ ome.mom Hea.mso.a ooo.o~o.- ooo.oms.oa ooo.ome.~m moma vmm.moe.mH mmv.meo.m ss¢.m¢m.m~ ooo.m~m sam.omo mmm.oam ooo.omm.mH ooo.ose.m ooo.ocv.m~ bead «mm.omv.ma mmm.mv>.m omo.mma.e~ www.mmm «Hm.amm omm.oam ooo.omo.ma ooo.0me.m ooo.omo.m~ coma aem.amo.sa omm.mm~.m amm.mm~.mm m~o.mma omm.m~o mvm.vmm ooo.0m~.ea ooo.omm.m ooo.oaa.m~ mood sme.oem.oa mmm.vve.n -m.omo.e~ mmm.mma mvo.meo mea.mmm ooo.oem.ma ooo.omm.m ooo.omm.em coma mhm.aaa.ma mm~.emm.m Hmm.mso.- mum.maa ave.~em moo.amm coo.0m~.ma ooo.ovm.e ooo.oew.- mood omm.mmm.ma mam.~mm.m ~vo.mea.o~ osv.mm www.5mv wmm.omm ooo.omm.ma ooo.oms.m ooo.osn.om «cad “Mmmwm one woman “Mmmum can moans mmmmwm one woman sou =mooq wosuog «0 wuwodxm "on mad mo muuomxu no» swung Has: no uuwomxm “coo.a » say Ammma I Nmmav :mumzo Hmnuo: van Dam cu mwuomxm sauna Honuos wan mdd Hmuoa II.m mqmtfi l‘IIIIIl‘I 60 for changes in both supply and demand conditions in the preference-giving and preference-receiving countries over , the period of analysis. To do so, one must use two groups of "control" countries: "other LDCs" needed to control for changes in demand conditions in the EEC, and "other DMECs" needed to control for changes in supply conditions in the AAS. The growth rates of AAS and "other LDCs" exports to the EEC and "other DMECs" are then compared in order to determine whether the AAS responded to EEC tariff preferences. It may be concluded that the AAS response was positive when- ever (AG) is greater than zero, with: _ (AG) = (G11 " G21) " (G12 ' G22) where: G11, G12 2 Growth rates of AAS exports to respectively the EEC and "other DMECs" G21, G22 = Growth rates of "other LDCs" exports to respectively the EEC and "otherDMECs". Table 3 provides the value of exports from the AAS and "other LDCs" to the EEC and "other DMECs"l over the 1962-1969 period. I The following growth rates and mean values were estimated: ‘ l"Other DMECs" include the following countries: 11.8., Canada, EFTA countries, Finland, Ireland, Greece, ESpain, Turkey, Yugoslavia, Japan, Australia, New Zealand 61nd South Africa. 61 Growth rate Mean value 0%) (1n.$1.000) AAS exports to EEC : G11 2 7.24 619,187 AAS exports to "Other DMECs": G = 15.12 162,903 12 "Other LDCs" exports to EEC : G 7.96 7,792,036 21 "Other LDCs" exports to "Other DMECs" . : G = 7.65 16,686,465 22 The above growth rates yield a value for (11G) of -8.19%. Thus, it may be concluded that, in the case of over- all exports, the AAS did not respond to EEC tariff preferences. Indeed, the above findings indicate that, for some unknown reasons, the AAS performed better in the markets of "Other DMECs" than in those of the EEC countries. At this level of commodity aggregation test findings should be considered with caution. Since there may be many commodities which are exported by "Other LDCs" but not by the AAS - and vice-versa -, the impact of tariff preferences on commodities exported by both groups of countries may be "hidden" by changes in the export of the former commodities. In order to reduce this problem,the evaluation methodology will be applied, in section 5 and 6, to disaggregated commo- dities at, respectively, the 3-digit and 5-digit SITC levels. 3. Evaluation of AAS response for over-all manufacturedexports The methodology used for global exports is applied, jLn this section, to total manufactured exports, excluding E>etroleum products, unworked non-ferrous metals, and a number 62 of manufactured commodities in SITC groups 6 and 7 (e.g., 711 and 735 when exported by LDCs).l In this analysis, the "control" group "Other DMECs" is limited to 13 majOr countries: the 8 EFTA countries, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Japan. Due to lack of readily available data, it was not possible to include 7 additional countries defined by the U.N. as DMECs (i.e., Finland, Iceland, Greece, Turkey, Spain, Yugoslavia and South Africa). Table 4 provides the value of exports from AAS and "Other LDCs" to EEC and the above group of "Other DMECs" over the 1962-1969 period. The following growth rates and mean values were estimated: Growth rate Mean value (%) (in $1,500) AAS exports to EEC G11 2 13.04 61,540 AAS exports to "Other DMECs": G12 2 19.19 16,964 "Other LDCs" exports to EEC : G21 = 9.04 933,773 "Other LDCs" exports to "Other DMECs" : G22 = 15.56 2,310,553 Given the above growth rates, we obtain a value for ( AC) of +.37%. This value is positive but very close to zero. Thus, it may be concluded that in the case of total * lThe manufactured exports analyzed in this section (rorrespond to those included in UNCTAD's "Total A" (i.e., rnanufactured goods included in SITC groups 0 to 9, excluding 3531.02, 332, 341.2, 351, 513.65, 667, 681, 682.1, 683.1, 6585.1, 686.1, 687.1, 689, 711, 735, and 961.0). 63 .oump o: .mu50Iucaum newsmaoo .a¢soz= un>ocoo .monsuomwscmaIaaom can mousuuumscma mo mummmmm .Q¢BUZD “mousom oom.mmc.e coo.~oc.a co~.om~.c mec.~m cmm.maa mmm.cea mcc.oam.v ccc.m~m.~ mam.c~v.c mcma mmm.ecc.m emc.mma.a eH~.mvo.m cao.c~ mcm.~oa Hom.m~H Hem.oam.m mme.oc~.a cHo.HmH.m mcmH cmc.mca.m cmo.moo.H ~mc.cmd.v cmm.m~ moH.Hc mmm.voa mmc.mma.m mma.cmo.a Hmc.Hm~.v mcma mmo.¢vm.~ mom.cua.a mcm.~mm.m «mm.om mv~.mc mso.cm Ham.emm.~ mmm.mma.a vcc.ccm.m ccmH cme.mae.~ mmc.mmm ace.mcm.m cmm.m~ oma.mm mam.mc cmc.meq.~ mmc.aao.a mmm.mmc.m mcma acm.oma.m oao.mam Hmm.mco.m mam.cH moa.mm cao.qs vec.mca.m mHH.omm mcm.nma.m ecma mo~.mmc.a mmc.~mm cmo.~ec.~ mvo.HH ~mc.mc emm.cc Hm~.omc.a Hem.mcm www.mme.m mcma vac.mmc.a mmm.mmm mmm.mmv.m Hmc.m Hcc.mv www.cm cm~.mcc.a omc.avm ccc.m0m.~ mcma mwmmum can momzo ma “Mmmum one means ma “Mmmwm one woman ca sou =mooq wosuo: «0 uuwomxu “on mad mo manomxm "on gmooq Mac: co cowomxu Aooo.H a adv Ammmd I Nomav ..MUQ.H 80390: UCM m: ecu Bonn smumzo nonuos can own ha mwuduomuscmalaaom can nmuzuoduscna mo.muuomEH II.v.mAm49 64 manufactures, the AAS did not respond to EEC tariff pre- ferences. This finding should be considered with caution for two reasons. First, as in the case of total exports, the test is applied to highly aggregated export data. Second, the 221k of AAS manufactured exports may consist of commo— dities for which the EEC common tariff is low, and thus does not favor a positive AAS response to preferences. The results of the analysis does not exclude the possibility of a positive AAS reSponse limited to a few commodities for which EEC tariffs are relatively high. 4. AAS exports of various groups of manufactures to the EEC and other groups of countries This section will provide an over—all view of the pattern of exports from the AAS with respect to various groups of manufactured commodities. It constitutes only a partial evaluation of the AAS response to tariff preferences since "Other LDCs" exports to EEC and to "Other DMECs" are not taken into consideration. Due to lack of data, it was not possible to apply the methodology developed in chapter II to groups of manufactured exports. Nevertheless, findings from this section will be helpful in qualifying those ob- tained in other sections of this chapter. The analysis in this section is designed to determine: (i) whether, for various groups of manufactured commodities, there was a shift in the geographical pattern of AAS exports in favor 65 of the EEC over the 1962-1969 period, and (11) whether the size of this shift was a function of the type of commodity being exported (i.e., finished commodities versus semi- manufactures). The data Coverage of manufactured exports. The definition of "manufactures" used in this analysis is somewhat less restrictive in coverage than that usually adopted by international organizations and trade economists. Speci- fically, it covers a number of products from groups 0 and 2 of the CST Commodity Classification1 which are usually classified as agricultural materials: for example, in Group 0, frozen or chilled meat and simply prepared (dried or salted) fish; in Group 2 wood sawn length wise and rail- . way sleepers. Such goods are included in this study as "manufactures" because their production requires a certain level of processing, albeit a fairly uns0phisticated one. The technological level of the AAS is so low that a pro- cessing level which may be considered as non-significant in developed countries should be considered as significant in the AAS. Consequently, simply processed raw materials are classified as manufactures. ‘1 lCST stands for "Statistical and Tariff Classification For International Trade". This is the classification used by the Statistical Office of the European Communities with res- pect to AAS export statistics. 66 Exclusion of re-exports. Comprehensive data on exports from the AAS during the 1962-1966 period were published for the first time by the Statistical Office of the European Communities in 1968. Export data for the years 1967 to 1969 were published two years later in 1970. Exports are coded according to the Statistical and Tariff Classification (CST) by groups (1 digit classification), sub—groups (3 digit classification) and by individual commodities (5 digit classification). The published tables provide AAS exports to the world, the EEC and in- dividual countries. These EEC publications constitute the only source of comprehensive foreign trade statistics for all the years included in the period of analysis. It was noted in the forewords of these publica- tions that in order to improve the reliability of the compiled foreign trade statistics various adjustments of the original data had been carried out. These adjustments did not, however, include the exclusion of re-exports. A cursory look at the export statistics indicates that a number of exported commodities could not have been pro- duced by the AAS countries. The obvious examples are air- plane engines and machine tools. Such items either consti- tute re-exports or are being shipped abroad for repairs. Export items of the above type may be easily identified and excluded from the analysis. However, there also exist questionable export items which cannot be rejected off—hand 67 without checking whether they are actually produced in the exporting country. Examples of such items include bicycles, cars, various chemicals, and even cigarettes. In order to identify and exclude from the analysis various types of re-exports, it was necessary to compile for each country within the AAS a list of manufactured commodities produced in the country. It was then assumed that if a commodity is actually produced in the country, it constitutes a potential export commodity. If it was subsequently found that this commodity was exported, the export was assumed to be genuine. Industrial statistics for each AAS country were obtained from a 1971 publication1 which provides complete and detailed information on the manufacturing industries of each country, including the name, location and size of firms, the starting year and volume of production, and in - some cases, the destination of the production of the firms (e.g., local market, foreign market in Africa, EEC). Manu— factured exports which could not be identified from the above list were excluded on the assumption that they con- stituted re-exports. In cases where the list shows that the production of a given manufacture started after 1962, exports between 1962 and the starting year of production were also rejected as re-exports. — lEdiafrie-Service (1) 68 Table A-1 of the Appendix provides a complete list of true exports from each country within the AAS,-including the year in which exports of each commodity began. Grouping of manufactured commodities. The aggrega— tion of manufactured commodities into various groups pre- sents a double interest. First, the separate analysis of individual groups will indicate which type of exports to the EEC the AAS succeeded in expanding or failed to expand. Second, since tariff preferences are generally of greater interest for finished goods than for simply processed raw materials or intermediate goods,1 it is of interest to determine whether AAS exports of finished goods to the EEC grew at a higher rate than AAS exports of intermediate goods. Tentative conclusions may then be drawn from such cross-sectional analyses as to whether-tariff preferences have been successfully used by the AAS to expand their exports of finished goods to the EEC. In this section, manufactured exports are aggregated into 11 groups: total exports, simply processed raw materials and intermediate goods, finished goods, and each of the CST 1Since the impact of tariff preferences on export ex- pansion is a function of the level of tariff duties, and SIINBG these duties tend to be higher as the value added by nmnnlfacturing increases, the impact of tariff preferences should.be larger for finished goods than for raw materials cxr intermediate goods. Moreover, this impact should be re-‘ :hmforced by the fact that the difference between the effective talfixff and the nominal tariff is much larger for finiShed nunnlfactures than for semi-manufactures. 69 groups 0 to 8, excluding<3roup 3.1, CST groups 0, 5 and 6 include both intermediate and finished goods. CST groups 1, 7 and 8 include finished goods only, while CST groups 2 and 4 include intermediate goods only. The classifica- tion of individual commodities into finished or inter— mediate goods is provided in Table A-1 of the Appendix. Table 5 provides the over-all share of each of the two types of goods within each group. In some cases, a commodity could be classified either as an intermediate good or as a finished good, depending on whether it is to be further processed in industrial establishments, or is to be retailed as a con- sumer good. For example, if palm oil is exported already refined and bottled for home consumption it would be classi— fied as a finished good. On the other hand, if it needs further processing before it could be retailed, it should be classified as an intermediate good. Since the 5-digit CST classification is not always sufficiently disaggregated to permit an unambiguous distinction between finished and intermediate goods, a certain degree of arbitrariness could not be avoided when goods were being classified. Grouping of importing countries. Countries im- porting from the AAS are grouped according to specific geographical and economic characteristics. The AAS export lSince exports of commodities in CST group 3 did not take place until the end of the period, they were not included in the analysis.

Countries are aggregated into 5 groups: Africa, "Other LDCs", EEC, "Other DMECs" and Socialist countries of Europe. The group "Africa" consists of all countries in the African continent, including the AAS. The charac- teristics of this group are (i) geographical proximity to the AAS, and (ii) a development level generally similar to that of the AAS.1 The group "Other LDCs" includes all developing countries in the Middle East, Latin America and Asia. The characteristics of this group are: (1) large geographical distance from the AAS, and (11) with some exceptions in the Middle East and Latin America, 8 develop- ment level similar to that of the AAS. The EEC constitutes a special group among the developed countries because of its special trade relationship with the AAS. The "Other DMECs" group includes all developed market economy countries with the exception of the EEC. The characteristics of this group are: (i) large geographical distance from the AAS, and (ii) a high level of development relative to that of the AAS. 1An additional characteristic is that some of the AAS countries are grouped within two customs unions (see section 2 of chapter IV), a factor which may favor trade among these countries. Thus, if tariff preferences were to be effective in promoting trade, the growth rates of AAS exports to the EEC and Africa should be higher than those of exports to other groups of countries. 72 These two characteristics also apply to the EEC. The fifth group includes all soCialist countries ("SOC. countries") in Europe. The characteristics of this group are similar to those of "Other DMECs", but its trading policies differ significantly from those of "Other DMECs".l Evaluation of AAS export performance during the 1962—1969 period This evaluation is based on estimates of growth rates summarized in Table 6. These estimates were cal- culated from export statistics (values and market shares for the 1962-1969 period) provided in Tables A-2a and A-2b of the Appendix. Total manufactured exports. As shown in Table 6, total AAS exports to the world grew at the relatively high rate of 8.72% per annum. Close to 99% of total exports were distributed among the EEC (71.43%). Africa (14.52%) and "Other DMECs" (12.72%). The growth rate of exports to Africa (16.45%) is higher than that of exports to the EEC (6.10%) and than that of exports to "Other DMECs" (14.90%). The growth rate of the share of exports to Africa (7.11%) is higher than that of exports to the EEC (-2.4l%) and than that of exports to "Other DMECs" (5.68%). It may therefore be concluded that total manufactured exports grew 1Although the countries included in each group are not fully homogeneous with respect to the characteristics listed in each case, it was decided to limit the analysis to these five groups. 73 TABLE 6.--AAS exports of individual groups of manufactured commodities - Growth rate of value and market share V = Value of exports MS = Market share of exports l = Mean value (in $ 1,000) 2 = Growth rate of V (in Per cent) 3 = Mean value of MS (in Per cent) 4 = Growth rate of MS (in Per cent) Destination Commod i ty Social .

Exports of semi-manufactured commodities. Over-all exports of intermediate commodities grew at a relatively high rate (7.31% per annum). Close to 99% of total exports were distributed among Africa (5.45%), the EEC (80.13%) and "Other DMECs" (13.22%). The growth of exports to the latter group of countries (16.31%) is higher than that of exports to Africa (13.15%) and than that of exports to the EEC (5.61%). The growth rate of the share of exports to the EEC (-1.58%) is much lower than that of exports to Africa (5.43%) and than that of exports to "Other DMECs" (8.39%). Therefore, the conclusions regarding total manufactured ex- ports also apply to semi-manufactured exports. Exports of finished commodities. Over—all exports of finished commodities grew at a much higher rate (13.12%) that exports of intermediate commodities. Thus, it would seem that the AAS has applied a greater effort and shown a greater capability in expanding exports of finished goods than in expanding exports of intermediate goods. Close to 99% of total exports of finished goods were distributed among Africa (43.45%). the EEC (44.39%) and "Other DMECs" (10.82%). While Africa ranks third (in terms of the share of exports) in the case of semi—manufactured goods, it ranks second in the case of finished goods. Furthermore, the growth rate of exports of finished goods to Africa (17.55%) is much higher than that of exports to the EEC (9.06%) and than that 76 of exports to "Other DMECs" (10.27%). The growth rate of the share of exports to Africa (3.92%) is also much higher than that of exports to the EEC (-3.59%) and than that of exports to "Other DMECS" (4.52%).1 It may also be noted that the growth rate of the share of finished exports to the EEC (-3.59%) is lower than that of semi-manufactured exports to the EEC (-l.58%). Since tariff duties for finished exports are usually higher than those for semi-manufactured exports, it would seem that the granting of tariff preferences to the AAS has failed to have the expected impact (i.e., relatively higher expansion of exports of finished commodities to the EEC than that of semi-manufactured commodities). Exports of Group 0 commodities (Processed agricultural materials). The growth rate of Group 0 exports (12.27%) is higher than that of over-all exports (8.72%). The growth rate of exports to the EEC (12.67%) is higher than that of exports to Africa (9.70%) and than that of exports to "Other DMECs" (11.30%). Africa, the EEC and "Other DMECs" account for close to 99% of total exports in this group. The growth rate of the share of exports to Africa (—2.9%) is lower than that of exports to the EEC (.35%) and than that of exports to "Other DMECs" (-.87%). Exports in Group 0 are approximately divided between semi—manufactured goods and finished goods (see Table 1The fact that preferential trade agreements exist between some AAS countries and some African countries should not provide a full explanation for this high trade intensity of intra-African trade. 77 5). Since tariff duties are relatively high (20% to 80%) for the finished exports,l there may have been an attempt by the AAS to respond positively to tariff preferences. However, given the low growth rate of the share of exports to the EEC (.35%), no firm conclusion can be reached. Exports of Group 1 commodities (Manufactured tobacco and beverages). Exports to the world grew at a fairly high rate (14.02%), with over 99% of total exports going to Africa (82.90%) and to the EEC (16.17%). The growth rate of exports to Africa (17.52%) is very much higher than that of exports to the EEC (-2.05%). Decreasing exports to the EEC account for the marked decrease of the EEC share of exports (-l4.10%), as against the share of Africa (3.07%). These are to some extent surprising results since tariff duties on manufactured tobaccos and beverages are usually very high. For spirits, the main Group 1 export to the EEC, a tariff duty of 107% is imposed on imports from "Other LDCs" (see Table 8). One ex- planation — assuming that the AAS is as competitive on the EEC market as other groups of countries - is that the AAS is unable to produce beverages or tobacco products of the type and quality which cater to the tastes of EEC consumers. Export of Group 2 commodities (Processed raw gmaterials). Over—all exports of Group 2 commodities grew at aa fairly low rate (4.42%), with over 99% of these exports k 1Tariff duties imposed by the EEC on imports from "0ther LDCs" are presented in section 6, Table 8. 78 going to Africa (4.98%), the EEC (81.17%) and "Other DMECS" (12.88%). The growth rate of exports to the EEC (2.55%) is lower than that of exports to Africa (6.43%) and than that of exports to "Other DMECs" (21.49%). Consequently, the share of exports to the EEC decreased by 1.79%, while the share of exports to Africa increased by 1.93%, and that to "Other DMECs" by 16.35%. Given the generally low level of tariffs imposed on Group 2 commodities (2% to 7%),1 tariff preferences would not be expected to have a significant im- pact on AAS exports of these commodities. Exports of Group 4 commodities (Oils and fats). Group 4 exports are of particular interest to the AAS since these commodities are natural resource intensive, and the AAS is a main producer of the raw materials used in their production. Tariff duties on these commodities are moderate, with a tariff of 7% applying to the main Group 4 commodities exported by the AAS (see Table 8). Thus, preferences could be expected to have a moderate impact on the expansion of AAS exports to the EEC. The over-all growth rate of Group 4 exports is fairly low (3.56%), with over 99% of total exports going to the EEC (93.92%), Africa (4.17%) and "Other DMECs" (1.86%). The growth rate of exports to "Other DMECs" (80.90%) is much higher than that of exports to Africa (7.90%) and than lTariff duties for Group 2 commodities were obtained from the Statistical Office of the European Communities (2). 79 that of exports to the EEC (2.01%). Consequently, the share of exports to the EEC declined (-l.49%) while the shares of exports to Africa and to "Other DMECs" increased by 4.21% and 73.22%, respectively. These results suggest that tariff preferences, albeit moderate, did not provide an incentive for the AAS to expand substantially its Group 4 exports to the EEC. Export of Group 5 commodities (Chemicals). A larger number of chemical products are exported to Africa than to the EEC. The main chemicals exported to the EEC are glycerin (CST 512-26), essential oils and resinoids (CST 551-10), superphosphates (CST 561-29) and starches (599-51). For starches, the tariff duty is 28.1%. For the other commodi- ties duties are low to moderate (0.3% — 6%). Over—all exports of Group 5 commodities grew at a fairly high rate (17.50%), with over 99% of total exports going to Africa (28.36%), the EEC (44.49%), and "Other DMECs" (26.51%). The growth rate of exports to Africa (49.88%) is much higher than that to the EEC (8.27%) and than that to "Other DMECs" (8.75%). Consequently, the share of exports to Africa increased substantially (27.22%) while the shares of exports to the EEC and to "Other DMECs" decreased by 7.86% and 7.44%, respectively. It would therefore seem that tariff preferences, albeit moderate to low, failed to expand AAS exports to the EEC. 80 Exports of Group 6 commodities (Mainly processed raw materials). The main Group 6 exports to the EEC include various leather and wood products, products made of vegetable fibers, and unwrought aluminium and aluminium alloys. As shown in Table 8, tariff duties on these commodities are moderate to high, ranging from 8% to 21%. Over-all Group 6 exports grew at a relatively high rate (8.09%), with over 98% of total exports going to Africa (23.20%), the EEC (59.90%), and "Other DMECs" (15.10%). The growth rate of exports to Africa (28.84%) is very much higher than that of exports to the EEC (2.27%) and than that of ex- posts to "Other DMECs" (2.00%). Consequently, the share of exports to Africa increased substantially (19.19%) while the shares of exports to the EEC and to "Other DMECs" decreased, respectively, by 3.39% and 3.64%. It would therefore seem that tariff preferences, although moderate to high, failed to induce the AAS to expand substantially Group 6 exports to the EEC. Exports of Group 7 commodities (Machinery and trans- pprt equipment). It is suspected that some of Group 7 ex- ports to the EEC constitute re-exports. This suspicion is basead on the unevenness of exports statistics for individual commodities over the 1962-1969 period.' However, since the AAS produces all Group 7 commodities shown in Table A—1 of the Appendix, it was not possible to exclude certain commo- dities as re-exports. 81 Over-all Group 7 exports grew at a fairly high rate (16.76%), with over 99% of total exports going to Africa (59.78%), the EEC (36.80%) and "Other DMECs" (2.69%). The growth rate of exports to "Other DMECs" (59.90%) is higher than that of exports to Africa (20.02%) and than that of exports to the EEC (9.29%). Consequently, the share of exports to "Other DMECs" and to Africa increased, respec- tively, by 37.10% and 2.79%, while the share of exports to the EEC decreased by 6.40%. Since tariff duties on Group 7 commodities are usually high (13% to 20% for imports origina- ting from "Other LDCs"),1 it would seem that tariff preferen- ces failed to induce the AAS to expand substantially its ex— ports to the EEC. Exports of Group 8 commodities (Mostly non-durable con- sumer goods). This group of exports is of particular interest to the AAS since it includes a large number of labor-intensive commodities for which the AAS should enjoy a comparative advan- tage in production and trade, and since tariff duties imposed on these commodities are usually high (on the average, l5-25%). Over-all Group 8 exports grew at a very high rate (f52.33%). Close to 99% of total exports were divided be- tWeenAfrica (91.65%) and the EEC (7.26%). The growth rate Of‘ exports to Africa (34.28%) is much more higher than that Of exports to the EEC (14.29%). Thus, while the share of GXPDOIts to Africa grew by 1.47%, that of exports to the EEC dec2reased by 13.62%. It therefore seems that Group 8 exports __~ _ lTariff statistics were obtained from the Statistical folmze of the European Communities (2). 82 represent a clear case where tariff preferences failed to induce the AAS to expand substantially its exports to the EEC. Summary of findings on the AAS export performance The preceeding analysis of AAS exports shows that, with exception of Group 4, the growth of exports of manu- factures was moderate to high. The over-all export perfor- mance of the AAS can therefore be considered as more than satisfactory. Its export performance did not, however, particularly favor the EEC. With the exception of Group 0, where the growth of the share of exports to the EEC was marginally higher than that of exports to "Other DMECs" (.35% versus -.87%), the EEC ranked last, in terms of the growth rate of the market share of exports, after.Africa and "Other DMECs".l This result prevails not only when EEC tariff duties are low (e.g., Group 2 and Group 5 commodities), but also when duties are moderate to high (e.g., Group 1, 4, 6, 7 and 8 commodities). On the basis of the analysis conducted in this Section, it may be concluded that the high expansion of AAS eacports during the 1962-1969 period cannot be attributed to arl expansion of exports to the EEC, and that the findings in thnis section are at odds with those which would be expected on the basis of tariff preferences. It must be noted, however, ¥ lSince socialist countries and "Other LDCs" accounted tOg'ether for generally less than 1% of total exports, they need not be considered when evaluating AAS export performance. 83 that the above analysis does not permit us to conclude, un- ambiguously, that the AAS did not respond to EEC tariff pre- ferences. In order to reach firm conclusions about the AAS response, one must also take into consideration "Other LDCs" exports to the EEC and to "Other DMECs". Furthermore, the analysis should be conducted for individual commodities. This type of analysis will be carried out in the following two sections. 5. Evaluation of AAS response with respect totindividual commodities at the 3-digit level of the SITC classification In this section, the evaluation methodology developed in chapter II is applied to 13 major manufactured commodities at the 3—digit level of the SITC classification. Lack of readily available trade data prevented application of the methodology to other major commodities classified as manu- factures in the previous section.1 A few additional commodi- ties were excluded from the analysis because the value of ex- ports to "Other DMECs" was equal or close to zero for the whole period of analysis, and the evaluation methodology could not be reliably applied. These commodities are, how- ever, analysed (at a higher disaggregation level) in section 6. L lImport statistics used in this section were obtained .from unpublished UNCTAD statistics on manufactured imports by iflle EEC and 13 other DMECs. The UNCTAD definition of manu- Ifiictures is more restrictive than the one adopted in the pre- ‘Vious section. Thus, a number of major AAS exports, such as frozen meat, salted or dried fish, milled rice, raw sugar, gill-cake, and various vegetable oils, could not be included III the present analysis. 84 Commodities analyzed in this section include the following main SITC sub-groups: O53 (fruit, preserved and fruit preparations), O55 (vegetables, preserved or prepared), 072-3 (coc021 butter and paste), 243 (wood, shaped or simply worked), 431 (animal and vegetable oils and fats, processed, and waxes of animal or vegetable origin), 512 (organic- chemicals), 551 (essential oils, perfumes and flavor materialsL 599 (chemicals, n.e.s), 611 (leather), 631 (veneers, plywood boards), 632 (wood manufactures, n.e.s.), 657 (floor coverings), and 684 (aluminium). The two groups of "control" countries used in this section are the same as those used in section 3 (i.e., "Other LDCs" and "Other DMECs", the latter group including 13 major countries). Table 7 provides the growth rates of EEG and "Other DMECs" imports from the AAS and "Other LDCs". These growth rates were estimated on the basis of import statistics pro- vided in Table A-3 of the Appendix. Table 7 also provides estimates of the parameter (24G) which indicates whether the AAS responded to EEC tariff preferences. As shown in the above table, (.40) is positive for only 4 commodities (SITC sub—groups 431, 551, 631, and 632) out of 13.

The following estimated regression equation was obtained: ( Ag) : 15,50 - 2.29T (tz2,562, significant at p.<-O5) where: T = tariff level. The above cross—section findings indicate that the over-all AAS response to EEC tariff preferences is at best weak: the AAS reSponded positively for only four commodities out of 13, and the estimated regression equation indicates that the AAS response is negatively correlated with the tariff level. It may be noted that three out of the four SITC sub- groups for which the AAS responded positively include manu- factured commodities traditionally exported by the AAS to the EEC. The three sub-groups are 431 (animal and vegetable oils and fats), 551 (essential oils, perfumes), and 631 (veneers, plywood boards). Thus, the AAS response seems to have been limited to an expansion of its traditional exports to the EEC. Furthermore, as shown in Table 7, the EEC tariffs for the four commodities are very low (0.9% for sub-group 431, 1.5% for sub-group 551), or moderate (11.9% for sub-group 631, 13.8% for sub—group 632). 87 6. Evaluation of AAS response with respect to individual commodities at the 5-digit level of the CST classification As stated earlier, the evaluation of the AAS response to tariff preferences should be undertaken preferably with respect to highly disaggregated commodities (e.g., commodities at the 5-digit or 7-digit level). This section presents an evaluation of the AAS response for 29 commodities at the 5—digit level of the CST classification. Due to lack of data, the evaluation methodology developed in chapter 11 could not be applied to these commodities. Consequently, it was necessary to develop a modified evaluation methodology applicable to the available data. The commodities The 29 commodities to be evaluated are shown in Table 8. Fifteen of the commodities belong to CST Group 0, and the remainder to CST Groups 1, 4, 5 and 6. Together, these commodities account for close to 80% of the total value of manufactured exports from the AAS.1 The only major ex— ports not included in Table 8 are those for which the common IEEC external tariff on imports from "Other LDCs" is equal or Close to zero (e.g., CST 013.30, CST 081.30, CST 243.31, CST 431.42). ¥ 1These commodities were selected on the basis of a tabulation of total AAS exports for each commodity exported by the AAS. The computer print-outs may be made available on request. 88 TABLE 8.--Major 5-digit level commodities exported by the AAS to the EEC Common EEC tariff im- CST Descri tion posed on Code p imports from "Other LDCs" 1964 011-10 Meat of bovine animals, fresh, 20.0 chilled or frozen 013-80 Other prepared or preserved meat or 26.0 ' meat offals 031-10 Fish, fresh, chilled or frozen 10.7 031-20 Fish, dried, salted or in brine: 15.0 smoked fish 031-30 Crustaceans and molluscs, fresh, 16.4 frozen, salted or dried 032-01 Fish, prepared or preserved, n.e.s. 24.6 042-20 Rice, semi-milled or wholly milled 15.5 053-50 Fruit juices, vegetable juices, 21.2 unfermented 055-45 Tapioca 25.6 061-10 Sugars, beet and cane, raw, solid 80.0 061-50 Molasses, whether or not decolorized 57.2 072-31 Cocoa paste, whether or not defatted 25.4 072-32 Cocoa butter (fat or oil) 20.0 081-20 Bran, sharps and other similar 16.0 residues 112.40 Spirits 107.0 (421.40 Groundnut oil 7.0 422-20 Palm oil 7.0 422-40 Palm kernel oil 7.0 ‘122-90 Fixed vegetable oils, n.e.s. 7.0 L“ 89 TABLE 8.--(Continued) Common EEC tariff im- CST Descri tion posed on Code p imports from "Other LDCs" 1964 '561-29 Superphosphates, other phosphatic 6.0 fertilizers‘ 599-51 Starches, inulin 28.1 611-40 Leather of other bovine cattle, and 9.5 equine leather 631-10 Wood sawn lengthwise, sliced or 8.1 peeled, 5 mm or less 631-21 Plywood or blockboard 14.9 632-89 Other articles of wood, n.e.s. 13.2 655-61 Twine, cordage, ropes and cables 13.0 656-10 Sacks and bags, of textile materials, 21.1 for packing 657-80 Plaiting materials bound together 10.2 684-10 Aluminium and aluminium alloys, 9.0 unwrought Source: Statistical Office of the European Communities (2). 9O Tariff duties for the 29 commodities range from 6.0% (CST 561.29) to 107.0% (CST 112.40). For the majority of the commodities, the tariff range is 10% — 30%. Thus,. tariff preferences could be expected to have a moderate to high impact on AAS exports to the EEC. Evaluation methodology The evaluation of the AAS response to tariff pre- ferences for 29 individual commodities will include two, major parts: first, a description of the findings derived from an examination of EEC import data and AAS export data, and second, a presentation of the results of two regression analyses. Regression analysis on EEC imports. The first re- gression analysis pertains to the relationship between the growth of EEC imports from the AAS and the price competi— tiveness afforded the AAS by tariff preferences. This analysis makes use of the "control" group "Other LDCs" as a proxy for AAS export performance in the absence of tariff preferences. It isolates the impact of tariff preferences from the impact of differential changes in the C.I.F. price competitiveness of the AAS and "Other LDCs" by using the multiple regression technique. This approach was adepted because lack of data prevented the use of the group "Other DMECs" in order to control for differential changes in price 91 competitiveness. Under the usual assumptions of product homogeneity and perfect competition, it may be stated that, for a given commodity, the difference between the growth of EEO imports from the AAS and that of imports from "Other LDCs", (Gl - G2), is a function of EEC tariff preferences and the difference in 2 price competitiveness between the AAS and "Other LDCs". The above statement may be expressed as follows: (G1 - G2) : f(Tv(GPl - GP2)) where: T : tariff preferences (i.e., level of duties imposed on imports from non-beneficiary countries) G 2 Growth rate of the C.I.F. price of EEO imports from the AAS G 2 Growth rate of the C.I.F. price of EEC imports from "Other LDCs". (GP - GP ) measures the difference in pasig price compe- l 2 tiveness (not including tariff preferences) between the AAS 1The evaluation methodology deve10ped in chapter II is preferable because it controls for additional factors not taken into account by the methodology used in this section (e.g., factors such as bad weather which constrain the suppl of agricultural products used as inputs to the food industry . 2Since changes in EEC supply and demand conditions apply equally to the AAS and "Other LDCs", they need not be taken into consideration when estimating (G - G ). Similarly, changes in supply and demand conditions in J'Otheg‘ DMECs" need not be taken into consideration. 92 and "Other LDCs". Given the schedule of EEC cummulative tariff reductions in favor of the AAS (see Table l), the EEC common external tariff imposed on imports from "Other LDCs" and (GP1 — GPZ), one may estimate the difference in total price competitiveness between the AAS and "Other LDCs" when tariff preferences are taken into consideration, (GP1 - GP2)D' The above relationship may then be rewritten as follows: (G -G>=f[[(G -G ) —(G —G )MG ~01] l 2 P1 P2 D P1 P2 P1 IE The first term between brackets in the right-hand side of the above relationship is the additional price competitiveness afforded the AAS by EEC tariff preferences, while the second term between brackets is the difference in.b§sig price com- petitiveness. Let us define: G -G - G -G =X [( P1 92%) ((131 1323 1 G —G :X P1 P2 2 (G1 - G2) = Y In order to determine whether Y (difference in growth of EEO imports from the AAS and "Other LDCs") is a function of basic price competitiveness (X2) as well as additional price competitiveness due to tariffs preferences (X1), the following multiple linear regression equation may be estimated: Y1 : 30 + leil + B2Xi2 + 8i 93 where Y, X1 and X2 are defined as above, and 1 refers to the ith commodity included in the sample. In the present ana- lysis, the value of i ranges from 1 to 29. If the regression coefficient 31 is found negative and significant, it would indicate that the AAS exports had increased in reSponse to the EEC tariff preferences.l Let us now show how X1 may be estimated on the basis of the growth rate of the C.I.F. price of EEC imports from the AAS, the EEC tariff imposed on non-beneficiary countries, and the schedule of EEC tariff reductions on EEC imports from the AAS. The reduction of tariff duties imposed on imports by the EEC from the AAS reached 100% of the duty rate on 1 August 1968. This is also the same date at which the in— ternal tariff reduction of the EEC reached the 100% target agreed on. Table 1 provides the schedule of individual re— ductions, the cummulative reductions and the percentages of duty rates which applied to manufactured imports from the AAS'during the 1959-1968 period. Table 1 shows that the average cummulative reduction in 1962 - the base year for this study - is 45%. The cummu- lative reduction for the year 1969 is 100%. Therefore, the Percentage of the duty imposed on imports from the AAS de- creased from 55% in 1962 to 0% in 1969. E 1It would be logical, in this case, for 3% also to be :negative and significant. 94 It will now be shown how, on the basis of the above data, to estimate the growth rate of the price of imports from the AAS when tariff preferences are taken into considera- tion. Let us 0’ 7 0’ 7 define: C.I.F. prices of imports from the AAS at year 0 (1962), and year 7 (1969). the EEC common external tariff on imports from "Other LDCs". T is the average ex- ternal tariff for the 1962—1969 period. fraction of the EEC common external tariff which is imposed on imports from the AAS at years 0 and 7 (i.e., .55 and 0). growth rate of the price of imports from the AAS when tariff preferences are not taken into consideration (i.e., growth rate of the C.I.F. import price). growth rate of the price of imports from the AAS when tariff preferences are taken into consideration. The price at year 7, including tariff duties, is giVen by the following relationship: P7(l + d7.T) : PO(1 + dO.T)(1 + r;)7 Taking the logarithm of the above relationship gives: L98 P7 + Log(1 + d7.T) 2 Log PO + Log(1 + dO.T) + 7L0g(1 + r;) 95 Rewriting gives: LogP - LogP Log(1 + d7.T) - Log(1 + dO.T) + 0 7 7 The first term of the left-hand part of the above expression 7 : Log(1 + I?) ..(1) is equal to Log(1 + r1) since we have: P7 Log P7 : Log PO + 7Log(l + r1) Po” + r1)7 and therefore: Log P _ Log P 7 0 Log(1 + r1) : 7 Equation (1) may then be rewritten: Log(1 + dZ.T) - Log(1 + dO.T) Log(1-t r1) + = Log(1 + r;) 7 Since (1.7 = O and d0 = .55, then: Log(1 + r1) - Log(1 ; '55T) = Log(1 + r;) An estimate of r; may be obtained once rl and T are known. When using an average tariff1 for the whole period of analysis (i.e., T constant over the whole period), the growth rate of the C.I.F. price of imports from "Other LDCs", r2, is the same as the growth rate of import prices when * lTariff duties did not vary much over the period of analysis. Thus, the use of an average tariff in place of lIldividual tariffs for each year should not affect the f1ndings of the analysis. 96 . . . . 1 tariffs are taken into cons1deratlon, ré. Given r1, r; and r2, we can obtain Xl from the following relationship: ._ _ _ _ —— , _ _ :3 I _ X1 ‘ [(GP GP )D (GP GP )1 ” r1 r2 r1 + r2 r1 r1 1 2 l 2 If T was not assumed to be constant over the period of analysis, the functional relationship for X1 would be much more complicated, and would include r2 as well as rl and T. Regression analysis on AAS exports. A second re- gression analysis pertains to the relationship between the growth of AAS exportsto the EEC and the level of EEO tariffs imposed on non-beneficiary countries. Since tariff pre- ferences should make the AAS relatively more competitive on the EEC market than on "Other DMECs" markets, the difference between the growth rate of AAS exports to the EEC and that of AAS exports to "Other DMECs", (G3 - G4),shou1d be a function of the level of the EEC tariff imposed on non- beneficiary countries. In addition, (G3 - G4) should be a function of the change in supply and demand conditions in 1This may be shown as follows: _ . 7 P7(l + T) — FO(1 + T)(l + r2) Log P7 + Log(1 + T): Log PO + Log(1 + T) + 7Log(l + r2) Log P - Log P , 7 O = Log(1 + r2) = Log(1 + r2) 7 Thus r2 = r2 97 the EEC and "Other DMECs" over the period of analysis.1 The above considerations lead to the definition of the following functional relationship: (G3 " G4) = f[T'( 68D)EEC’( 68D)"Other DMECs"] where: p3 II EEC tariff imposed on imports from non— beneficiary countries ( CSD)EEC,( 68D)"Other DMECs" 2 change in demand and supply conditions in, respectively, the EEC and "Other DMECs". If it is assumed that ( 68D)EEC and ( 68D)"Other DMECs" are equal in terms of their impact on AAS exports to each group of countries,2 (G3 - G4) becomes a function of T only. Thus, in order to determine whether tariff preferences had an impact on AAS exports to the EEC, the following regression equation may be estimated: ((43—04) = a+BTi+ 8i A significant and positive 3 will indicate that tariff pre- ferences had a positive impact on AAS exports to the EEC. 1Changes in supply conditions in the AAS need not be taken into consideration since they apply equally to the EEC and "Other DMECs". 2The growth rates of EEC imports from LDCs of groups of manufactured commodities which include the 29 commodities analysed in this section are generally close to those of im- ports by the 21 major DMECs (including the EEC countries) over the 1962—1969 period (see UNCTAD (4), Tables 4 and 8). Thus, the above assumption may not be unrealistic. 98 Findings for individual commodities The findings for individual commodities are derived from a descriptive analysis of EEC imports (from the AAS and "Other LDCs")and of AAS exports (to the EEC and the rest of the world). The analysis of EEC imports is based on data in Tables 9 and 10. Table 9 provides the growth rate of the value of EEC imports from the AAS and "Other LDCs" (column 2), and the growth rate of the market share of imports from the above two groups of countries (column 4). It also provides the growth rate of the C.I.F. price of imports from the AAS and "Other LDCs" (column 6), and the growth rate of the price of imports including the tariff duty (column 7). The growth of value, market share, and prices of imports from two other groups of countries — the EEC, "Other DMECs + socialist countries" - are also included for information purposes. Table 10 summarizes the findings from Table 9. Column (1) provides the difference between the growth rate of the value of imports from the AAS and that of imports from "Other LDCs", (Gl - G2). In 18 cases out of 29 (62% of all cases), the difference in growth rates is negative.

It becomes more competitive than "Other LDCs" in 21 cases (72%) when tariff preferences are taken into consideration (£3331 competitiveness). The data suggest that the AAS performance is to a large extent independent of its relative competitiveness vis—a-vis "Other LDCs". In 13 of the 18 cases (72%) where (G1 — G2) is negative, the total competitiveness of the AAS is superior to that of "Other LDCs". A similar percentage (73%) is obtained in the 11 cases where (G1 - G2) is positive. The above analysis of EEC imports from the AAS and "Other LDCs" is summarized in the following table: (Gl - G2) (GPl — GP2)Lllowing relationship: : Exports from j to i (in $1,000) . GNP of i (in million 8) 104 (API)ij Export values are used insteadof import values for thee estimation of API because import values may be assessed in different ways by different countries. Since API values 132 are usually very small, these values are multiplied by 104 in order to avoid a large number of cumbersome zeros. Thus, API is given in terms of dollars per 10 million dollars of GNP. A logarithmic form is used for the regression equa- tion because, theoretically, API should decrease exponentially as D and/or IAPCII increase. In the above regression equation, Log (API) is ex- pressed as a function of Log(thCID rather than of Log (.APCI). The absolute value of the difference in PCI's is used in order to express the argument in the Linder theory that everything else being equal, the API'S of two countries from a third country will be equal if their PCI's are either higher or lower than that of the third country by the same amount. The sign of the regression coefficients b and c is expected to be negative,while that of coefficient d is ex- pected to be positive. The sign of the regression coefficient f would be positive if special trade agreements have a signi- ficant impact on the geographic intensity of AAS trade. If, (N1 the other hand, such agreements have no impact on trade instensity, the sign of f may be either positive or negative, bu't statistically non-significant. The estimation of the model parameters in section 3 iS :not undertaken to predict future values of API's, but to Verflify empirically the validity of the model. Thus, the goail is to obtain unbiased estimates of the parameters by 133 including all theoretically specified variables for which data are available in the regression equation rather than to obtain a regression equation with the least residual variance by excluding those variables which decrease the value of R2. The prediction of future values of API is outside the scope of this study. 2. The data Grouping of exports The Linder theory should apply best to manufactured consumer goods, and should have little relevance for raw materials. Its relevance for intermediate manufactures would depend on the nature of the goods. In general, the closer a traded commodity is to a consumer good, the better the Linder theory would apply. In order to verify the above pr0positions, AAS manu- factured exports are divided into intermediate goods and con- sumer goods. The regression equation is estimated for each of the following 13 groups of exports: - Total intermediate goods. - Total consumer goods. - Intermediate goods in each of the CST Groups 0, 2, 4, 5 and 6. - Consumer goods in each of the CST Groups 0, l, 5, 6, 7 and 8. Groups 2 and 4 contain only intermediate goods, Groups 1, 7 and 8 contain only consumer goods, and Groups 0, 5 and 6 134 contain both. The classification of commodities into inter- mediate and consumer goods is provided in Table A-1 of the Appendix. Export statistics,1 at the 5-digit level of the CST Classification, were used in order to estimate the value of each group of exports from each AAS country. API's are estimated on the basis of the average value of exports for the 1962-1969 period, i.e.: (API) [1 2 ] . . = - X 13 8 w t iI' where: xt = value of exports for year t. The average value of exports is used instead of yearly values for two reasons. First, the goal of the ana- lysis is to verify empirically the Linder theory, and not to predict the future geographic intensity of AAS exports. Second, given this goal, it is important to use an average value in order to minimize export fluctuations of an inci- dental nature which may distort the findings of the test. If, for a given group of exports, the value of ex- ports to a country is equal to zero, the country is not in- cluded in the test. Obviously, given the economic size of the AAS countries, it cannot be expected that they will ex- port all commodities to all countries of the world. For most lExport statistics were obtained from the Statistical Office of the European Communities (2). These statistics are available in the form of computer print-outs. Although they have not been included as an appendix, they can be made available on request. 135 groups of commodities, the number of countries which do not import from the AAS is in fact larger than the number of countries which do. The inclusion of a large number of zero APIs in the analyses would "hide" the relationship which may exist between the dependent variable, API, and the explanatory variables. By excluding zero APIS, the analysis aims at identifying the factors which determine the existing distribution of given amounts of exports among the trading partners of the AAS. GNP and PCI statistics for each importing and ex- porting country are provided in Table A-5 of the Appendix. The values of GNP and PCI used in the analysis are those of 1967. It would have been preferable to use average values for the 1962-1969 period. Unfortunately, GNP and PCI data were not available for all years and all countries. The 1967 values should, however, closely approximate the average values for the period under study. Distances between importing and exporting countries were obtained from a publication of the U.S. Navy (3) for coastal countries, and from rail and road maps for land- locked countries. In each case, the shortest distance was selected. Whenever a rail line exists between a port and the capital of a land-locked country, inland distance was measured on the basis of the rail line. Distances are re- ported in Table A-6 of the Appendix. The value of the variable P (special trade agreements) 136 is equal to l for each pair of countries composed of one AAS country and one EEC country. Variable P is also equal to l for various pairs of AAS countries. Twelve out of 14 AAS countries are grouped within two customs unions: (1) Union Douaniere des Etats de l'Afrique de l'Ouest, and (ii) Union Douaniere et Economique de l'Afrique Centrale. The first customs union includes Mauretania, Mali, Senegal, Upper Volta, Niger, Ivory Coast, and Dahomey. The second customs union includes Gabon, Central African Republic, Congo-Brazzaville, Tchad and Cameroon. A number of countries have left these unions since 1969. In general, tariff preferences offered to members of these customs unions are similar to those granted by the EEC to the AAS. 3. Test of the model for the AAS as a whole Test findings The purpose of this section is to test the model desoribed in section 1 for the AAS as a whole. Thus, j - the exporting country - covers a range of l-l4, while i - the importing country — covers a range of 1-140 (140 being the total number of countries importing AAS manufactures, including the 14 AAS members). Table 13 provides the results of the test for the 13 1 export groups described in the previous section.

The regression coefficient for the difference in percmpita income is, as postulated by Linder, negative for allgmpups of exports. Difference in per capita income is a shyflficant variable at the .005 level1 for over-all con- sumer goods and for five of the six consumer goods groups (O-C, 5-C, 6-C, 7 and 8). It is significant at the .03 level for Group 1. With respect to intermediate goods, the difference in per capita income is a significant variable at the .005 level for one group (6-I), and at the .03 level for a second group (2). Thus, IAPCII is significant at the .03 level for all groups of consumer goods, and 2 out of 6 groups of intermediate goods. The regression coefficient for the distance variable is, as postulated by Linder, negative for all groups of ex- ,ports. The distance variable is significant at the .005 level for over-all consumer goods and for five consumer goods groups (O-C, 5—C, 6-C, 7 and 8), and at the .03 level for (}rou;>ll. This variable is significant at the .005 level for (averuérll intermediate goods and for Group 4, and at the .03 level for Group2. Thus, the distance variable is significant eat ‘thee .03 level in all cases relating to consumer goods, and 1In this section, two levels of significance are used ‘to Cliscxribe the results: .005 level and .03 level. lIIj'llll'll‘lIl‘ll 141 in 3 out of 6 cases relating to intermediate goods. The regression coefficient for the variable language is, as implied by the Linder theory, positive for all groups of exports. The language variable is significant at the .005 level in all cases relating to consumer goods. It is significant at the .005 level for over-all intermediate goods, and for intermediate goods Groups 2, 4 and 6. Thus, the language variable is significant at the .005 level in all cases relating to consumer goods, and 4 out of 6 cases relating to intermediate goods. The regression coefficient for the variable "Special trade agreement", P, is both positive and significant at the .03 level for over-all intermediate goods and for Group 2. In the remaining 12 cases, P is non-significant (with a positive sign in 2 cases and a negative sign in 9 cases); The value of R2 is relatively high for over-all consumer goods (.4311), and for most consumer goods groups, ranging from a value of .3425 for Group 0-0 to a value of .5490 (for Group 7. The values of R2 for most groups of intermediate exports are much lower than those for consumer goods (.4311 versus .2019 for over-all exports, .3425 versus .0647 for exports in Group 0, .4243 versus .2536 for exports in Group 5, and .5093 versus .2001 for exports in Group 6). 7he only moderately high R2 for intermediate exports is that ‘elating to Group 4 (.3244). Given the above findings, it may be concluded that 142 the three Linder type variables ( IAPCII , D, and L) provide a significant "explanation" of the geographical intensity of AAS exports for all groups of consumer goods. Further- more, as postulated, the Linder model does not apply as well for intermediate goods as for consumer goods. R2 values for consumer goods are approximately the double of those for intermediate goods. In the particular case of Group 0, the R value for consumer goods is approximately five times the R2 value for intermediate goods within this group. An additional finding of the test is that the inde- pendent variable P is non-significant for all groups of consumer goods, and for 4 out of 6 groups of intermediate exports. This finding should be considered with some caution, P being a binary variable rather than the actual tariff level. However, it is interesting to note that P is not a significant determinant of the geographical intensity of AAS export of intermediate goods in Groups 0, 5, and 6 despite the high duties which are usually imposed on a large number of commo- tariffs do not seem to This dities within these groups. Thus, have consituted an important trade-breaking force. finding is implicitly postulated by the Linder theory. Examples of API values predicted by the regression emlation for the AAS as a whole The regression equation can be used to predict the verage trade intensity between the AAS as a whole and any 143 importing country. The predicted estimate is obtained by first calculating the average IAPCII and average distance (D) between the importing country and the AAS as a whole, and then calculating the average API on the basis of the average values of IAPCII and D, and the values of P and L which apply. The regression equation may, for example, be used to estimate the trade intensity between the AAS and France on the basis of an average IAPCII of 2,338 dollars, an average distance of 3,529 miles, and a value of l for both the variables P and L. API values were estimated for the following three hypothetical cases: Case I : IAPCII = 8100 ; D = 500 miles; L = O; P = 0 Case 11 : IAPCII = 82,000; D = 3,500 miles; L = O; P = O - l; P = 1 3,500 miles; L — Case III . IAPCII : $2,000; D : Case I may be considered as being a typical case of trade between the AAS and a non-French speaking African country. Case 11 may be considered as being a typical case of trade between the AAS and a non-French speaking European country outside the EEC. Case III may be considered as being a typical case of trade between the AAS and a French speaking :ountry (France or Belgium) within the EEC. y lThe estimated regression equation cannot, however, ? used to estimate the average trade intensity between the S and individual AAS countries which belong to a customs 1011 since the value of the variable P is not, in this case, _ique. 144 Table 14 shows that API values for consumer goods are higher for Case I than for Cases II and III by a very large margin. API values are approximately 5 to 40 times higher for Case III than for Case 11, the difference being The difference attributed primarily to the variable language. in APIs between Case I and Case II is so large that predicted total exports in Case I generally exceeds predicted total exports in Case II. To illustrate this point, let us assume that the importing country in Case I has a GNP of 1,500 million dollars - a typical GNP value for an English speaking African country. Let us also use, for our example, API values for consumer goods in Group 0 (i.e., 67.5 and 4.0). What would the GNP of a country in Case II have to be in order for its imports from the AAS to equal those of the English speaking African country? This GNP may be obtained from the following equation: our = %(1,500) = Among non-EEC countries within Europe, only the U.K. had, 25,312 million dollars in 1967, a GN'P higher than 25,312 million dollars, the GNPs for other non-EEC countries ranging from 546 million dollars Thus, AAS for Iceland to 24,143 million dollars for Sweden. exports of consumer goods in Group 0 are predicted to be higher for a typical English-speaking African country than for non-EEC countries in Europe, with the exception of the Similar calculations would show that AAS exports of V.K. onsumer goods to the above typical African country are 145 TABLE l4.--Examp1es of API values predicted by the regression equation for the AAS as a whole API CST Group Case I Case II Case III Consumer Goods in: Group 0 67.5 4.0 19.6 Group 1 2.1 .1 3.8 Group 5' 5.1 .2 3.2 Group 6 27.1 .5 4.7 Group 7 19.3 .5 2.4 Group 8 _ 6.6 .2 2.0 Intermediate Goods in: Group 0 32.1 14.4 14.3 Group 2 26.9 7.5 46.2 Group 4 10.6 2.7 17.7 Group 5 13.1 2.6 6.7 Group 6 23.8 4.4 18.7 146 generally predicted to be lower than AAS exports to EEC countries. APIS for intermediate exports are also higher for Case I than for Case 11 and Case III. The difference is not, however, as large as the difference for consumer goods. It may be shown that, in general, predicted AAS exports of intermediate goods to European countries are higher than predicted exports to a typical African country outside the AAS . 4. Test of the Linder model for individual AAS countries The proposed model of the geographical intenSity of AAS exports is tested, in this section, for each individual AAS country and each of the 13 groups of commodities des— cribed in Section 2 of this chapter. The estimated regression equations permit more accurate predictions of the geographical intensity of exports from an individual AAS country than that permitted by the over-all regression equation estimated in the previous section. The number of data points for indivi- dual AAS countries is not, however, always large enough for testing purposes. Furthermore, for a number of commodity groups, non-zero APIS relate primarily or exclusively to AAS exports to African countries. This latter circumstance tends :o distort the test findings for the following reason. When on—zero APIS relate primarily to AAS exports to African Duntries, the IAPCII values associated with these API values rl’ld to be Clustered within a narrow range. Under these 147 (flicumstances, the distance and language variables may over— shadow the importance of the variable thCII as a determinant of trade intensity (i.e., API values may become mainly a function of D and L). The variable IAPCII postulated by Linder may not be tested properly unless the range of values associated with this variable is fairly wide. In order to avoid the problems raised above, the Linder model was tested only in cases where the number of data points was large enough to insure a wide range of LAPCII values. By observation of the data, it could be seen that 20 constitutes an adequate number of data points. Consequently, the test results are provided only in cases where the number of degrees of freedom is equal to or larger than 15. Table 15 provides a list of the commodity groups selected for testing, and a list of the AAS countries asso- ciated with each commodity group. Test findings Detailed test results for each AAS country are pro- ‘vided in Table A-7 of the Appendix. These results are ennmmarized in Table 16. For each commodity group, the table Ixrovides the number of regression equations which are tested, tlue number of regression coefficients which are non-signifi- ceuit (defined here as p2,10), as well as the number of coexfficients which are significant at levels in the following reunges: .05 to .10, .01 to .05, and .01 or less.

Results from Table 16 are summarized below. The total number of regression equations is equal to 34 for intermediate goods and to 33 for consumer goods. Due to an insufficient number of observations, intermediate goods in Group 5 as well as consumer goods in Group 1 are not included in Table 16. The regression coefficient for the variable IAPCII is significant at the .10 level or less in.6 out of 34 re- gressions performed on intermediate goods (i.e., 17% of the cases), and in 16 out of 33 regressions performed on con- sumer goods (i.e., approximately 50% of the cases). Six of the coefficients associated with these latter goods are sig- nificant at the .01 level. Thus, as already shown in the previous section, the variable LAPCII is a more powerful determinant of trade intensity for consumer goods than for iirhermediate goods. Results for individual AAS countries sire, however, less conclusive than those for the AAS as a IMhole. This is not unexpected since the sample size for iiuiividual AAS countries is much smaller than that for the AAS as a whole. The regression coefficient for the variable distance (D) .is significant at the .10 level or less in 11 out of 34 151 regressions performed on intermediate goods (i.e., 33% of the cases), and in 32 out of 33 regressions performed on consumer goods (i.e., 97% of the cases). 24 of the coeffi- cients associated with these latter goods are significant at the .01 level while only 3 coefficients associated with intermediate goods are significant at this level. Thus, test results for individual AAS countries confirm those of the AAS as a whole, the variable distance constituting a more powerful determinant of trade intensity for consumer goods than for intermediate goods. The regression coefficient for the variable language (L) is significant at the .10 level or less in 10 out of 34 regressions performed on intermediate goods (i.e., 29% of the cases), and in 26 out of 33 regressions performed on consumer goods (i.e., 79% of the cases). 18 of the coeffi- cients associated with these latter goods are significant at the .01 level while only 5 coefficients associated with intermediate goods are significant at this level. These findings confirm those of the AAS as a whole. The regression coefficient for the variable P (Special ‘trade agreement) is significant at the .10 level or less in '7 out of 34 regressions performed on intermediate goods (i.e., 20% of the cases), and in 6 regressions out of 33 pxarformed on consumer goods (i.e., 21% of the cases). Two (If the coefficients associated with these latter goods are ssignificant at the .01 level while 6 coefficients associated 152 ‘with intermediate goods are significant at this level. Thus, as shown in the previous section, special trade agreements do not seem to constitute a significant determinant of the geographical intensity of AAS exports. Results for inter- mediate goods are slightly better than those for consumer goods. Differences in the findings are, however, of minor importance, and do not suggest any particular trend. The value of R2 is, in general, higher when the Linder model is tested for individual AAS countries than when it is tested for the AAS as a whole. As shown in Table A—7 of the Appendix, R2 values of .7 and .8 are fairly common, while R2 values for the AAS as a whole do not exceed .5. It can be seen from Table 16 that R2 values for inter- mediate goods are higher than .4 in 10 regressions out of 34 (i.e., 29% of the cases), while those for consumer goods are higher than .4 for 30 regressions out of 33 (i.e., 91% of the cases). Thus, as shown in the previous section, the tested regression equation explains a higher percentage of the total variation of the dependent variable, API, when applied to consumer goods than when applied to intermediate goods. The number of regression equations having an over-all significance level of .10 or less is equal to 21 (out of 34) for intermediate goods, and to 32 (out of 33) for consumer goods. 30 of these 32 regressions are significant at the .01 level, while 15 regressions are significant at this level in Ill/Ill III-l ..| 153 the case of intermediate goods. In summary: the findings reported in this section with respect to individual AAS countries confirm and re- inforce those pertaining to the AAS as a whole. 5. Concluding remarks on the test of the Linder model Results of the test, both for the AAS as a whole and for individual AAS countries, are in concordance with the Linder theory predictions regarding the geographical The regression model intensity of manufactured exports. For these goods, applies best to exports of consumer goods. the regression coefficients are generally significant for all three Linder type variables: absolute difference in per capita income, distance, and language. The model is less successful in predicting trade intensity for intermediate For these goods, the variables language and distance goods. are generally significant, but the main Linder variable, IAPCII , is often non-significant. The test results also indicate that the variable P (Special trade agreement) does not constitute a significant determinant of the geographical intensity of AAS exports. These results, which are based on a cross-sectional analysis of AAS exports, are consistent with the results of the time- series analysis undertaken in the previous chapter. This finding concurs with the implication of the Linder theory that special trade agreements will, at best, reinforce the trade intensity between countries of similar economic levels, 154 and should only marginally affect the trade intensity between countries of dissimilar economic levels. It must be emphasized that the test results apply strictly to the AAS and cannot be generalized to any other group of developing countries. A number of the AAS countries are classified by the United Nations among the least developed of the develOping countries. Obviously, this characteristic of the AAS countries may have had an impact on the test re- sults. In other words, if the test were to be performed on a group of LDCS at a higher level of development than that of the AAS (e.g., Latin American countries), different re- sults might be found. It is, however, suspected that the Linder—based model would yield positive results if tested for other countries than the AAS. One form of preliminary evidence to support this position can be derived from an analysis of world ex- ports and imports of manufactures, on an inter-regional and Lntra-regional basis. A partial analysis of such trade is ‘undertaken below for illustrative purposes. Let us first redefine trade intensity. In the pre- ‘Vious sections of this chapter, trade intensity was defined as erverage propensity to import, taking into consideration tine size of the GNP of the importing country. This definition (xf trade intensity is valid as long as the analysis is limited to 21 single exporting country, or to a group of exporting cmnurtries (such as the AAS) which have quite similar GNPS. 155 When the analysis is to include exporters which differ greatly in size, the GNP of the exporting country must also be taken into consideration. Obviously, the exports of a very large country A (e.g., the U.S.A.) to a given country C (e.g., France) will be much larger than those of a small country B (e.g., Finland). When comparing exports from A to C to exports from B to C, the size of the exporting country should be taken into consideration by dividing API by the GNP of the exporting country. The new measure of trade intensity, (WAPI), may be defined as follows: WAPI .. = exports of j to i ( )lJ (GNP)j-(GNP)i where: i = importing country j = exporting country (WAPI) = the trade intensity between i and j weighted by the GNPs of countries i and j Estimates of trade intensities between various re- gions of the world are provided in Table 17 for manufactured goods in SITC Groups 6 and 8 (excluding SITC 67 and 68), for ‘the year 1969. The WAPI values in the Table are multiplied 'by 1015 in order to avoid a cumbersome number of zeros. First, it may be seen from a vertical comparison of WAPI values that the highest values are, in all cases, those assunciated with intra—regional trade (e.g., 50.56 for intra- .African.trade). Thus, geographical trade intensities for Lunports are higher for intra-regional trade than for 156 .w>OQM mfl OOHDOm 086m .man "conmu sumo Mom moaumwuoum mzw .mcoaumz copes: "gnaw zoz .msma pacemadmsm I mofiumflumum ucoEmoHo>mQ was moons HmcoHuocuwuaH mo xoonvcmm .mcoHumz confine tha smGOHUMZ UwflflfiD uxhow 3mz .moaumfiumum ucmEmOHm>ma was moons HmcofiumanwunH mo xoonvcmm .mnoaumz cmufico "ECHM mOHumflfimum 30H“ wvmua "00H50w mw.mm vm.ov nm.n~ mh.~ HH.N mm.m mHm< ummmunusom ~m.va mm.mma oo.mm oa.H mm. vm.HH mamfl :uoumoz vs. ~o.m~ wm.om up. ov.m mw.o mofiumd oo.o oo.o vo. mm.m mo. mm. moauoam sauna vv.¢ om.aa mm.m mv.a hv.> on.a mmfluucsou umflHmaoom om.h vs.qq om.¢ vm.m m~.~ mo.em oaounm :uoummz mfimd umom wand moauw4 moauma¢ mmauucsoo omousm Inusom :uoummz :wumq umaaoaoom cumummz maloav x Ammsam> Hmoamomsw oa.m oe.m H.omm oaosoaoz oa.m o.ao~ snowman: oe.m os.m o.msm masses eo.v H.mH~ oases om-o om.v ”.mso ososH Hm.m m.aa~ mauomaa oo.mm oq.v «.mme Hanoum mm.m m.aom masses om.¢ o~.m m.mam oaosnoso> om.o s.amm mango oa.oH om.m n.eoa . ooaxoz om.o «.mom oaosH o~.ma oa.m ~.moo.a oa>oamooss .ma.» H.vae msox meow os.mo oo.s H.moa.a sosox mo .aom as.m s.ooe noaasuse .sooz oq.aH oo.ma H.mme.~ macs meow o~.oa e.amm oaosnoso> ~smanwoa~ Houou A.s as suouassou so Houou A.e av suouasaou no ommouosa «o a auucsoo msauuomxm no a .auussoo mcauuomxm ommucmouom omnum>m ascend meH Neaa Nsaa oso «was .nomzo am on mousuoomssoe mo msouuomxo some: uu.ma mamas 173 .mhma .mcodumz wmuaco uxnow 3oz .3ma>mu mnma I mmauouauuma cam mwauucsou mCaQOHm>ma mo mmusuommscmz ca momma .adeoza "moumom o¢.aa oo.ooa o.s~emn noon Houoa oo.ooa o.sm~.m moan Houos om.m oa.ma s.eaoau moon mo umom ms.ma n.5mm mung mo boom om.~a oH.om m.~mmgn moan ma Hmuoa -.mm m.oow.v moan ma Hmuoa om.w> on.H H.Hm~ mmsmnmm ¢~.H m.mw oooonoz om.ma oa.H e.aom Hooan ~m.a a.os nossaaaassa oe.HH oa.H e.Hom osausomue vo.a s.mm Hanoum thalmmma Hmuou A.E av huouauuou no Hmuou A.E av muouauuou no mmmmuo:« mo w muucsoo mcauuomxm «o m . knucsoo mcauuomxm mmmucmoumm mmmum>m Hmmccm msmd mama loosssusooc II.mH mamdh 174 TABLE l9.--Major trade flows between developing countries and 21 DMECs in 1972 Major exporting countries Remaining Export group 3 countries Name No. of total of total Clothing Hong Kong, Korea, 7 90.87 9.13 Yugoslavia, Israel, Singapore, Philippi- nes, India Engineering Hong Kong, Mexico, 5 85.35 14.65 products Singapore, Yugoslavia, ‘ (excl. road Korea vehicles) Textiles India, Hong Kong, 7 85.43 14.57 Iran, Pakistan, Korea, Brazil, Yugoslavia Food products Brazil, Argentina, 12 77.30 22.70 Israel, Yugoslavia, Morocco, Ivory Coast, Mexico, Philippines, Korea, Ghana, Malaysia, Paraguay Misc. light Hong Kong, Korea, 8 89.90 10.10 manufactures Mexico, Israel, Singa- pore, Yugoslavia, India, Lebanon Wood products Malaysia, Korea, 8 78.48 21.52 and furniture Yugoslavia, Brazil, Philippines, Singa- pore, Mexico, Ivory Coast Leather and India, Brazil, Argen- 7 82.42 17.58 footwear tina, Hong Kong, Korea, Yugoslavia, Pakistan 175 TABLE 19.--(Continued) Major exporting countries Remaining countries Export group % % Name NO' of total of total Chemicals Mexico, Yugoslavia, 13 72.93 27.07 Brazil, Israel, Bahamas, Argentina, Trinidad and Tobago, Tunisia, India, Korea, Indonesia, Bermuda, Neth.

To produce manufactures of the quality level demanded in industrialized countries, it would be necessary to use technologies that are more capital—intensive than they ought to be given the relative factor endowments of the AAS ' countries. The technologies needed to produce manufactures for the European market are likely to be more capital-intensive than the technologies needed to produce similar goods of a lower quality for local consumption or intra-regional trade. A trade strategy based on export expansion to industrialized countries would generate relatively little employment, and thus be ill-suited to development plans which place parti— cular emphasis on employment creation.l Furthermore, policies designed to implement this trade strategy may constrain the production of consumer goods of the price and quality which suit the economic level and tastes of the local population. Thus, while this trade strategy might be favorable to economic growth, it would not favor employment generation and an adequate production of-consumer goods for the local popu- lation. 1Concerning the relationship between choice‘of tech- nologys product quality and employment, see A.S. Bhalla, Ed. 1 . 177 Evaluation of a trade strategy based on intra-African trade A second trade strategy for AAS countries would be to expand intra-regional trade within Africa. Policy measures required for the promotion of this strategy are described below.1 African countries tend to levy high duties on im- ports, particularly imports of consumer goods, from neigh- boring countries. Exceptions exist only among the few countries which are associated in customs unions. Indeed, as a result of the reverse preferences granted by AAS countries to the EEC, duties and/or quotas imposed on EEC imports are often much lower than those imposed on imports from the majority of African countries. Expansion of intra- regional trade requires that these barriers be removed or lowered. This could be done through the creation of free trade areas and/or customs unions. If such measures were not politically feasible, bilateral and multilateral agree- ments could be established to lower tariffs on imports from African countries while maintaining higher tariffs on im- ports from non-African countries. The lack of convertibility of many African currencies may impose a severe constraint on the expansion of their mutual trade. If countries must pay convertible currencies 1For a detailed description of measures which may be adopted by AAS countries in order to promote regional trade, see UNCTAD (2). 178 for their imports from one another, the volume of trade will be constrained by their over-all foreign exchange earnings. To avoid this restriction on trade, governments could enter into bilateral clearing agreements and/or agree to create a payment union. Bilateral clearing agreements have been used in the past by a number of developing countries, and have been partially successful in promoting mutual trade. However, for trade expansion to take place among all African countries, a very large number of such agreements would be needed. It is therefore doubtful that this approach would be successful in the long run. An alternative approach would be the creation of a payment union among African countries. A union would present fewer problems and be more manageable administrative- ly. The problems raised by possible trade surpluses and de- ficits could be solved by establishing rules which set limits on these deficits and surpluses. Two additional factors which may hamper the expansiOn of trade among African countries are the lack of efficient. marketing channels and adequate transport facilities. The expansion of marketing channels cannot be achieved overnight, and, in the short run, trade among African countries may be constrained by the lack of such channels. Thus, an urgent task for African governments would be to set up marketing organizations to seek outlets in African countries,organize trade fairs, establish contacts between producers and importers, and facilitate administrative matters. Creation of intra— African marketing channels is especially urgent in African 179 countries where existing channels are dominated by foreign firms concerned solely with the expansion of trade with their home countries. Lack of transport facilities constitutes a severe contraint to intra—regional trade expansion for landlocked countries. Expansion of these facilities would become a profitable investment once the volume of trade among African countries has reached a sufficiently high level. In the meantime, African governments would need to take an active role in the deve10pment of transport facilities for intra- regional trade (e.g., creation of new shipping companies, expansion of the rail and road networks). Agreements would need to be reached among African countries for the alloca- tion of the costs of transport facilities, with preferential treatment extended to small landlocked countries which may not be able to finance large transport infrastructure pro- jects. The chances for an intra-African trade strategy to succeed are probably better than those associated with the previous trade strategy. First, the technological basis needed for an intra—African strategy already exists to a large extent. African countries usually have the capacity to produce low-quality, low-priced consumer goods. Large numbers of small, cottage-type industries already produce for local consumption and for export to neighboring countries. Governments need only to re-organize the small-scale industry 180 sector, improve the technical efficiency of small producers, and provide financial help to small investors. Second, this trade strategy does not require large amounts of foreign exchange. For many small-scale industries, little equip- ment needs to be imported, or simple types of equipment could be produced locally. Another alternative would be to import low-priced second-hand equipment from industrialized countries, and thereby minimize foreign exchange costs.l Third, a number of trade agreements already exist among African countries and, in general, there should be no major obstacle to expanding them. The only opposition would probably come from very small and poor countries which fear that a process of economic "polarization" would take place, favoring producers in the large African countries, and slowing down their own industrial expansion. The establish- ment of a payment union and the development of adequate marketing channels and transport facilities may, on the other hand, encounter major difficulties. Political will may be lacking, and financial constraints could limit investment in transport projects. Despite the above shortcomings, chances for a sub— stantial expansion of intra—African trade should be fairly good. As shown in previous chapters, trade in consumer goods is already relatively intense among African countries. In particular, AAS exports of Group 1, 5, 7 and 8 commodities F 1For example, see 0. Cooper and R. Kaplinski (3). 181 tend to be directed primarily toward African countries (see chapter III). Moreover, trade within Africa does not constitute an isolated example of high intra—regional trade intensity. As shown in the last section of chapter IV, trade within the various developing regions tends to be much more intense than inter-regional trade. An outstanding example of successful economic integration among developing countries is provided by the Central American Common Market. .African countries could learn from this example in order to achieve a similar level of success. A final argument for the expansion of intra-African trade is that the tariff preferences granted to the AAS have lost some of their value since the EEC established its GSP scheme. It is suspected that a small number of the countries included in the GSP scheme (in particular those listed in Tables 18 and 19) will become or remain the major LDC exporters to the EEC. An intra—African trade strategy may appeal to AAS governments concerned about employment and the consumption needs of their populations. The technologies needed for the production of low-price, low-quality manufactures are, in general, relatively labor-intensive. They should thus favor employment generation and lead to an improvement of the current income distribution. Furthermore, the price and the type of commodities produced should be well suited to the consumption needs of the local population and the 1See W.T. Wilford (4) 182 populations in neighboring countries. One potential drawback of this strategy is that its over-all impact on economic growth might be lower than that of the first trade strategy. The choice between the two strategies involves, in part, a choice between two different development patterns: a development pattern focussed on employment generation and the satisfaction of the basic needs of low—income groups, or a development pattern focussed on maximization of over-all economic growth with less concern for employment generation and improvement of income distri- bution. In choosing between these two strategies, AAS govern- mentswould need to consider their respective chances of success and their socio—economic impacts. Some relatively developped AAS countries, such as Cameroon, Ivory Coast, and Senegal, may opt for a mixed strategy since their manufac- turing sectors are fairly dynamic and they may be able to specialize successfully in the production of certain commodi- ties (e.g., tropical food products, wood manufactures) for export to industrialized countries. On the other hand, small and relatively poor AAS countries may find it more advantageous to adopt a strategy emphasizing intra—regional trade. Detailed investigation of a country's economy would be needed in order to make meaningful recommendations re— garding the trade strategy, or mix of trade strategies, which should be adopted. Although the analyses undertaken in the 185 present study do not permit specific recommendations re- garding individual AAS countries, they do suggest that, for the vast majority of these countries, it would be inappro— priate to place major reliance on tariff preferences granted by the EEC and other industrialized countries as a basis for the planning of industrial growth and economic development. 184 LIST OF REFERENCES .

Summary of findings This study was designed to meet two main objectives. The first objective was to determine whether the AAS res- ponded positively to EEC tariff preferences during the 1962—1969 period. The second objective was to identify the main variables which determine the geographical intensity of AAS manufactured exports. A number of time series analyses were undertaken in order to evaluate the AAS response to EEC tariff preferences. These analyses were conducted at various degrees of commodity aggregation, from total manufactured exports to commodities at the 5-digit level of the CST Commodity Classification. In general, the analyses indicated a failure of the AAS to respond to EEC preferences by expanding manufactured exports to EEC countries at a higher rate than would have prevailed in the absence of such preferences. The lack of AAS response applied to over-all exports as well as to manufactured exports. With respect to indivi- dual manufactured commodities, the analyses indicated a positive AAS response for only a small fraction of the total number of commodities investigated. Most cases of positive response involved raw materials—intensive semi—manufactures rather than consumer goods. Moreover, newly produced consumer 185 186 goods (i.e., goods first produced after the granting of EEC preferences) were exported primarily to developing countries in Africa. The analyses showed that the lack of AAS response could not be attributed to a low growth rate of AAS exports, or to a lack of price competitiveness on EEC markets. It was also shown that, for most manufactured commodities, the AAS held a substantial preferential margin, and the lack of response could not therefore be attributed to low EEC tariffs. Indeed, the lack of reSponse was more pronounced for heavily protected consumer goods than for semi—manufactures which are subject to a lower level of protection. Although it was outside the scope of this study to evaluate the factors responsible for the lack of AAS response, three hypotheses were considered. First, the AAS may lack the technological level and managerial skills needed to pro- duce and successfully market manufactured goods of the type and quality demanded in EEC markets. Second, the AAS may have failed to attract foreign investors who could have pro- vided advanced technology, managerial skills and extensive marketing channels. Third, product differentiation may be Inore important than price differentiation as an explanation of export competitiveness. Thus, the additional competitive- ness afforded by tariff preferences would fail to have the expected positive impact . A further explanation for the lack of AAS response 187 can be derived from the Linder similarity of preferences theory. This theory implies that tariff preferences should have a limited impact on the expansion of exports between countries with highly dissimilar structures. In order to test the validity of this prOposition, a trade model based on the Linder theory was developed and applied to AAS ex- ports to 140 countries. This analysis showed that the geo— graphical intensity of AAS exports - as expressed by average propensity to import (API) - was negatively correlated with the absolute difference of per capita income ( IAPCII) and the distance (in miles) between the exporting and importing countries. It was also shown that API was positively corre- lated with the independent variable "language" (L). As im- plied by Linder, the model applied better to consumer goods than to semi—manufactures. Furthermore, as already demon- strated in the evaluation of the AAS response, the independent variable "tariff preferences" (P) was shown to be non-signifi- cant. Thus, findings from the cross—sectional analysis supported those of the longitudinal analyses. On the basis of the above findings, two contrasting trade strategies for the AAS were examined: a trade strategy based on an expansion of manufactured exports to industria- lized countries, and a strategy based on an expansion of intra-regional trade. It was argued that, given the characteristics of the AAS, the latter strategy would have more chance to succeed than would the former strategy. 188 2. Potential impact of current General System of Preferences (GSP) schemes on manufactured exports from developing countries It is difficult to draw general conclusions on the basis of the findings of this study with respect to the potential impact of current General System of Preferences (GSP) schemes on the exports of manufactures from developing countries. Conditions characterizing the AAS-EEC trade arrange- ment differ from those prevailing under the GSP schemes in two contrasting ways. The majority of the countries included in the GSP schemes are at a much higher level of development than the AAS countries (most of which are included in the U.N. list of least deve10ped countries). More developed LDCs, in contrast to the AAS, may possess a technological level and managerial skills which will enable them to expand their manufactured exports so as to take advantage of the GSP schemes. On the other hand, two aspects of these schemes make them less favorable than the EEC-AAS trade arrangement. First, tariff preferences granted by the EEC to the AAS are less restrictive than the GSP schemes with respect to commo- dity coverage. Second, AAS exports to the EEC are not sub- ject to various quotas as are beneficiary LDCs'exports under the GSP schemes. Furthermore, during the 1962—1969 period, the AAS was the only group of developing countries to enjoy tariff preferences from the EEC. Thus, these pre- ferences should have given rise to greater trade diversion 189 from other develOping countries,in favor of the AAS, than would be the case under current GSP schemes which apply to nearly all developing countries. No general prediction can be made regarding the impact of the GSP schemes on the basis of the findings of this study. It may only be suggested that these schemes are not likely to benefit countries at the same general level of development as the AAS (e.g., Latin American countries such as Guatemala, or Asian countries such as Bangla Desh). It also seems probable that the approximately 20 developing countries which are major exporters of manu- factures to industrialized countries (see chapter V) will be the main beneficiaries of the GSP schemes. It should be noted, however, that even these countries should not be overly dependent on the GSP schemes as a basis for expanding their industrial sector. It is possible that these schemes will be maintained in their pre- sent form only as long as the economic growth of the pre— ference-granting countries is not on the decline. Otherwise, protectionist forces may lead governments to introduce more restrictive schemes than is currently the case. These forces are already having an effect in a number of industria- lized countries. France, for example, has decided to set curbs on imports of textile products in order to protect its textile industry. On June 20, 1977, the French Foreign Trade Minister invoked article 19 of the General Agreement 190 on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) in order to limit certain im- ports, and thereby maintain the current employment level in the textile industry. Import limitations would apply mainly to products such as men's shirts, women's blouses, T-shirts, and cotton thread which are imported largely from developing countries. It was stated that France would have recourse to special provisions in the preferential agreements granted to countries associated with the EEC in order to limit imports from these countries.1 If similar measures were to be applied by other industrialized countries, the potential effectiveness of the existing GSP schemes could be greatly reduced. It therefore seems important for developing countries to follow a cautious trade strategy which gives as much importance to regional trade as to trade with industrialized countries. 1The above measures were reported in the June 21, 1977 issue of the International Herald Tribune.
