Abstract

A direct comparison of the welfare implications of pure competition between the states of Latin America and the outcome of a cooperative set of actions of these states is not possible. Laboratory experiments in the social sciences are impossible; societies experience just one run through history. Nevertheless, a concise study of the performance of a specific tool of cooperation, namely the Industrial Knowledge Bank (IKB), can be performed. If over time, such a tool attracts more and more countries, which formerly relied on competitive forces only, then an indirect proof of the superiority of cooperation can be assumed. The industrial knowledge is exchanged via specified projects, which form a network in the IKB data-bank. Then, the evolution of the structure of this network mimics the growth of the actual cooperative industrial projects. This paper provides a brief history and description of this institutional attempt to increase cooperation. It also shows the most relevant bottlenecks met by this project. Further, a clear picture of the state of industrial cooperation across South America is studied in detail through the development of the nodes of this network. We then use two indices typical for welfare increase to compare Latin American countries being part of the cooperation with those not taking part. The visible correlation can be interpreted as a hint of the advantages of cooperation. In conclusion, we provide some possible future scenarios for further industrial development in Latin America based on the study of this Industrial Knowledge Bank.

拉丁美洲国家的增长与合作:工业知识的作用
将拉丁美洲国家之间纯粹竞争的福利含义与这些国家的一系列合作行动的结果直接比较是不可能的。社会科学的实验室实验是不可能的;社会在历史上只经历过一次。然而,可以对一个具体的合作工具,即工业知识银行(IKB)的绩效进行简明的研究。如果随着时间的推移,这种工具吸引了越来越多的国家,而这些国家以前只依赖于竞争力量,那么就可以间接证明合作的优越性。工业知识通过特定的项目交换,这些项目在IKB数据库中形成一个网络。然后,该网络结构的演变模拟了实际合作产业项目的成长。本文简要介绍了这一促进合作的制度性尝试的历史和描述。它还显示了该项目遇到的最相关的瓶颈。此外,通过该网络节点的发展,详细研究了南美洲工业合作状况的清晰图景。然后,我们使用福利增加的两个典型指数来比较参与合作的拉丁美洲国家和未参与合作的国家。可见的相关性可以被解释为合作优势的暗示。最后,我们基于这个工业知识库的研究,为拉丁美洲进一步的工业发展提供了一些可能的未来情景。
