Abstract

Under the deep and protracted recession that plagues the Greek regions, exports have shown some positive signs of resilience. This paper explores through a spatial econometric analysis of SUR models, first, the changes that occurred in exports by the (NUTS 3 level) regions for the period 2008–2012 to offer resistance against the crisis and to stimulate growth, which entail expansion of export demand, improvement in the quality of agricultural products, deeper specialization in broad low‐technology sectors and simultaneous increases in the variety inside these sectors and second, the ability of exports to transfer their growth gains to the broader economy. Bajo la profunda y prolongada recesión que azota a las regiones griegas, las exportaciones han mostrado algunos signos positivos de resiliencia. Este artículo emplea un análisis econométrico espacial de modelos SUR para examinar, en primer lugar, los cambios que se produjeron en las exportaciones de regiones NUTS 3 durante el período 2008‐2012 para resistir la crisis y estimular el crecimiento, lo que supone la expansión de la demanda de exportación, la mejora de la calidad de los productos agrícolas, una mayor especialización en sectores amplios de baja tecnología y el aumento simultáneo de la variedad dentro de estos sectores y, en segundo lugar, la capacidad de las exportaciones para transferir sus beneficios en materia de crecimiento a la economía en general. ギリシャ地域を悩ます深刻かつ長期に及ぶ不景気の中で、輸出にレジリエンスの兆しが認められる。本稿では、SURモデルを用いた空間計量経済的な分析により、はじめに、経済危機に対する抵抗力をつけ成長を促進することになる、2008年~2012年の期間に起きた (NUTS 3 レベルの)地域の輸出の変化を調べる。この変化は、輸出需要の拡大、農産物の品質の改善、幅広いローテクの産業セクターにおけるさらなる特化と、これらセクター内における多様性の増加の同時発生である。次に、輸出が成長の利益をより大きい経済に移す能力を調べる。
