摘要：The multivariate technique of factor analysis is used to combine
several indicators of economic integration and international
transactions into a single measure or index of globalization. The index
is an alternative to the simple measure of openness based on trade, and
it produces a ranking of countries over time for 23 OECD countries.
Ireland is ranked as the most globalized country during the 1990’s,
while the UK was at the top during the 1980’s. Some of the most
notable changes in the rankings are the decline of the US, Canada, and
to a lesser extent Japan. Norway also receives a lower ranking. There
are notable improvements in the ranking for Finland, Italy, Portugal,
Spain and Sweden. For Portugal and Spain the changes seem to follow
EU membership in the mid 1980’s.
