摘要：This chapter examines how three aspects of industrial
structure in developing countries influence their
opportunities for growth. Firstly, it looks at two important
elements of the industrial structure related to
products: diversity and sophistication. Recent research
suggests that more advanced economies have more
diverse industrial sectors, and economies that export
more sophisticated products—in terms of technology,
organization, quality, design and logistics—grow faster.
The chapter presents new evidence that diversity and
product sophistication in manufacturing are closely
linked to faster economic growth in both low- and
middle-income countries.
