Factor Content of Trade: Nonhomothetic Preferences and "Missing Trade"
The Heckscher-Ohlin-Vanek (HOV) theorem predicts whether a country will be a net exporter of services of a certain factor and the volume of the factor content of trade given the country's and the world's factor endowment information. Recent empirical work has documented that the measured factor content of trade is too small compared to the theoretical prediction and named this special pattern o...
متن کاملGlobalization, Trade Adjustment and Gradualism: An Exploratory Note in a Ricardian model with Overlapping Generations
Henry Wan, Jr. and Yinggang Zhou Cornell University May 2005 Abstract A general equilibrium model is set up for the entire trading world with overlapping generations, where the initial sector-specific age distribution of labor makes the impact of trade liberalization beneficial for some and detrimental to others, while allocation efficiency is improved. Und...
متن کاملA Note on Heterogeneity, Inefficiency, and Indeterminacy with Ricardian Preferences
The main issue raised in this note is the nonequivalence between the infinitehorizon model where agents are infinitely lived and the successive generations model with altruistic finitely lived agents: in the presence of a nonnegative bequest requirement, endowment heterogeneity imposes a revision of the acritical adoption of the infinitely lived agent representation in modern macro-economics. B...
متن کاملA 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...
متن کاملHeterogeneous Technology Diffusion and Ricardian Trade Patterns
This study tests the importance of Ricardian technology differences for international trade. The empirical analysis has three comparative advantages: including emerging and advanced economies, isolating panel variation regarding the link between productivity and exports, and exploiting heterogeneous technology diffusion from immigrant communities in the United States for identification. The lat...
