Endogenous Production Networks and Gains from Trade
I develop a quantitative trade model with endogenous production networks, namely the collection of supplier-customer relationships among rms. In the model, rms form linkages with each other both within and across borders, balancing the tradeo between extra revenue brought in by downstream connections and xed costs required to establish these relationships. The structure of equilibrium productio...
متن کاملGlobal Production Networks and China’s Processing Trade
This paper unveils a systematic pattern in China’s processing trade. In a cross-section of Chinese provinces, the average distance traveled by processing imports (import distance) is negatively correlated to the average distance traveled by processing exports (export distance). To explain this pattern, we set up a three-country industry-equilibrium model in which heterogeneous firms from two ad...
متن کاملDomestic Trade Frictions and Agriculture
I develop a model of heterogeneous land quality and study the relation between trade, farming productivity and welfare in Peru, where high domestic and international trade costs pose a major barrier to efficient farming. To quantify the model, I use a new dataset on spatially disaggregated crop prices, yields and land allocations. I then use the model to measure the welfare and productivity eff...
متن کاملDomestic productivity and variety gains from trade
JEL classification: F1 F12 We show theoretically and confirm empirically that domestic productivity has a significant impact on the demand for foreign varieties under the assumption that domestic and foreign varieties are imperfect substitutes. In particular, the demand for imported varieties ismore elastic for countries with comparative advantage. For an average good facing a median trade barr...
متن کاملTrade Competition, Domestic Political Constraints, and Pollution
This paper examines conditions under which domestic political institutions mediate the effect of trade competition on regulatory races in the environmental area. We focus on the role of domestic veto players in shaping governments' policy responses to trade competition which are reflected eventually in air (Sulphur dioxide, SO2) and water pollution (Biochemical Oxygen Demand, BOD) intensity lev...
