A Model of Trade with Ricardian Comparative Advantage and Intra-sectoral Firm Heterogeneity
In this paper, we merge the heterogenous firm model of Melitz (2003) with the Ricardian model of Dornbusch, Fisher and Samuelson (DFS 1977) to explain how the pattern of international specialization and trade is determined by the interaction of comparative advantage, economies of scale, country sizes and trade barriers. The model is able to capture the existence of inter-industry trade and intr...

Firms export because they generate more demand for their products, not because they can produce at lower ...
