Outsourcing with Home Bias and Trade Policy∗
This paper examines a simple model of outsourcing involving matching frictions and home bias in firms’ acquisition of intermediate goods.

Two groups of buyer firms are considered: one group accepts local and foreign sellers equally,...

It is known that a theory in S5-epistemic logic with several agents may have numerous models. This is because each such model specifies also what an agent knows about infinite intersections of events, while the expressive power of the logic is limited to finite conjunctions of formulas. We show that this asymmetry between syntax and semantics persists also when infinite conjunctions (up to some...

Payment of imported foreign factors of production may act as a semi-fixed cost, amplifying production externalities and returns to scale, making selffulfilling expectations driven busyness cycles easier to arise. This is demonstrated using a s...
