Two-sided Heterogeneity and Trade∗
This paper develops a multi-country model of international trade that provides a simple micro-foundation for buyer-seller relationships in trade. We explore a rich dataset that identifies buyers and sellers in trade and establish a set of basic facts that guide the development of the theoretical model. We use predictions of the model to examine the role of buyer heterogeneity in a market for fi...
متن کاملAsymmetric trade liberalisation, sector heterogeneity and innovation
Innovation, mark-ups and the degree of trade openness vary substantially across sectors. This paper builds a multi-sector endogenous growth model to study the inuence of asymmetric trade liberalisation and sectoral di¤erences in the degree of product market competition on the e¤ect that trade has on R&D investments at a rm level. I nd that di¤erences in the degree of competition generate lar...
متن کاملProduct Quality, Firm Heterogeneity and International Trade∗
I explore variation in price and export status in industries where I can estimate product quality and technical efficiency separately. The empirical results show that prices are increasing in quality and decreasing in efficiency and that selection into exporting is driven mainly by quality. Firms export because they generate more demand for their products, not because they can produce at lower ...
متن کاملMarkup is Markup
This position paper makes several simple points that locate the treatment of Web pages within the spectrum of approaches to the texts that are normally used by the linguistically sophisticated language processing community. The first point is that what ostensibly makes the Web a special kind of text, html markup and links, is just a variation, albeit a very populist one, on text types that much...
متن کاملThe Empirics of Firm Heterogeneity and International Trade
This paper reviews the empirical evidence on firm heterogeneity in international trade. A first wave of empirical findings from micro data on plants and firms proposed challenges for existing models of international trade and inspired the development of new theories emphasizing firm heterogeneity. Subsequent empirical research has examined additional predictions of these theories and explored o...
