Protection for Sale with Unemployment
To match the observed patterns of protection over business cycle, I add unemployment into two models of trade policy: Protection for Sale(1994) and Trade Wars and Trade Talks(1995) by Grossman and Helpman. The source of unemployment is nancial frictions: as in Aghion et.al. (2009) rms with pro ts less than a random threshold are liquidated. With small shocks protection goes up to save emp...
متن کاملProtection for Sale with Imperfect Rent Capturing
We extend the protection for sale framework by modelling non tariff barriers. Explicitly introducing partial rent capturing leads to a testable specification that bridges the gap between the theoretical Grossman and Helpman (1994) model and its empirical implementation, where coverage ratios have been used to measure protection. Our econometric analysis supports the augmented specification and ...

In the “Protection for Sale” model of Grossman and Helpman (1994), some industries are assumed to be able to overcome the free-rider problem and organize a lobby that represents their group interests while other industries are unable to form a lobby. This dichotomy presents a problem for the many papers that attempt to estimate the model empirically since every industry must be classified as ei...
متن کاملSurge Protection of End-User Equipment
This document is included in the Annex of Part 7 as historical background of a well-intentioned task that was completed at too slow a pace, missing its target date for serving as a reference for other in-process IEC standards projects concerned with low-voltage surge-protective devices. For the sake of historical accuracy and perspective, the document is presented here in its draft form, includ...
متن کاملProtection for Sale Under Monopolistic Competition: An Empirical Investigation
This paper proposes a general empirical framework to estimate the protection-for-sale model, where the protection regime shifts according to a sector’s market structure (perfectly or monopolistically competitive). We base the protection structure on Grossman and Helpman (1994) for the subset of perfectly competitive sectors and on Chang (2005) for the subset of monopolistically competitive sect...
