For this purpose, we use a non-linear growth regression specification that interacts a proxy of trade openness with proxies of educational investment, financial depth, inflation stabilization, public infrastructure, governance, labor-market flexibility, ease of firm entry, and ease of firm exit. effect of openness depends on a variety of structural characteristics. For this purpose, we use a non-linear growth regression specification that interacts a proxy of trade openness with proxies of educational investment, financial depth, inflation stabilization, public infrastructure, governance, Trade openness is measured by the ratio of total trade (i.e. international imports plus international exports) to the nominal GDP in each province of China. GDP per capita is measured by the ratio of GDP to the population. Data for trade openness and RGDP is obtained from China economic and social development statistical database. Government spending is measured by the ratio of government spending to the nominal GDP. Using a new measure of trade openness The paper revisits the dynamic effect of trade openness on environmental quality in South Africa by employing a fresh proxy of trade openness suggested by We carry out our empirical investigation by employing various openness measures suggested in the literature rather than relying on a few proxy variables. We also construct three additional composite trade policy indexes directly measuring trade policy stance. This study purposed to examine the extent to which trade openness has impacted the growth of the Nigerian economy covering the period from 1981 to 2018. Real Gross Domestic Product (RGDP) was used as a proxy for economic growth.

Although an ideal measure of trade openness will be an index that takes into account all trade distortion measures as well as all privileged instruments applied to export production to reflect on the concept of ‘neutrality’, the average tariff rate may generally be considered a viable proxy of trade orientation among transition economies. The first proxy of trade openness is derived from the ratio of trade to gross domestic product (GDP). The second proxy is the ratio of exports to GDP, while the third proxy is the ratio of imports to GDP. The last proxy is an index of trade openness, which captures the effects of residual openness, resulting from taking the country’s size and geography into account. and the indicator used as proxy for trade openness. Most of existing studies employ panel data re-gression approaches that impose cross-sectional homogeneity on coefficients, with the hope that the results could be applied to all countries. The cross-sectional homogeneity assumption is likely to

However, when proxies for government size and external risks, such as export concentration They used export plus import growth rate as proxy of openness. used the ratio of total trade (exports + imports) to real GDP as a proxy for trade liberalization.
