composition of the offshoring activity. In an empirical manner it is interesting to note,
that in Germany and also in Italy (where a similar pattern could be achieved) offshoring
is strongly pronounced in the high skill intensive industries of the manufacturing sector.
These offers several possibilities for future research. A comparative cross country
analysis would be of high interest. What are the factors that seem to be stable across
countries and what are the ones that seem to differ? Further on, it would be worth
investigating the importance of measurement differences in this respect. Additional
insights could be achieved from firm level data. In order to concretely link theoretical
findings to empirical examinations, the elasticity of substitution needs also to be taken
into account empirically. This would be an additional area of great interest for future
empirical investigations.
