Notes: ‘Growth’ is the real manufacturing output per worker growth rate computed annually over 1970-99. Imports and exports to output are
averages of total manufacturing imports and exports divided by total manufacturing output. These summary statistics are calculated based on
the sample used in the cross-sectional regressions of Table 1. A * indicates a country in the developed subsample.
