碩士 === 文化大學 === 美國研究所 === 81 === This thesis is focus on discussion the trend of Taiwan''s, and Mainland China''s labor intensive industry products exported to the United States. There are two industries- textile and clothing industries- used as examples to be discussed. The export of textile and clothing industries to U.S. has close relationship with the policy of American government. Since 1980s, U.S. government has taken off Taiwan''s MFN (most favored nation treatment). But in the meantime, PRC has enjoyed MFN treatment since 1980s. Therefore, the exporting criteria between the two areas is quite different. In the other words, the two areas become competitive with each other under different treatment issued by U.S. The exported quantity of clothing industry is larger than that of textile industry. And from many indexes, such as, Revealed Comparative Advantage、 Growth Rate、Annual Growth Rate、and Spearman Rank, we discover that the competitivity between colthing industry is more serious than that of textile industry.
