dc.description.abstractWe establish that domestically owned firms in two alternative models of emerging marketeconomies, the Czech Republic and Russia, have not been converging to the technologicalfrontier set by foreign owned firms. In both countries, the distance of domestic firms to thefrontier grew (in all parts of the distribution) from 1992-1994 to 1995-1997 and did not changefrom 1995-1997 to 1998-2000. However, the distance to the frontier is orders of magnitudegreater in Russia than in the Czech Republic throughout 1992-2000. We also find in bothcountries that domestic firms in industries with a greater share of foreign firms are fallingbehind more than domestic firms in industries with a smaller foreign presence. However, inthe Czech Republic this ?negative spillover? effect is diminished over time, whereas in Russiait continues to cause domestic firms to fall further behind. On the other hand, we find in bothcountries that foreign firms experience positive spillovers from other foreign firms operating inthe same product market. This evidence on the dynamics of efficiency is consistent with theview that economies (firms) need to be more technologically advanced and open tocompetition in order to be able to gain from foreign presence.en
