Endogenous Trade and Factor Proportions Production
نویسنده
چکیده
The present paper integrates neoclassical offer curves and production theory, introducing utility maximization and trade levels into the comparative static factor proportions model. The paper analyzes production conditions that determine the Metzler paradox that a tariff could lower the tariff inclusive import price. The model provides a more complete link between neoclassical and factor proportions trade models. JEL Classification: D60, F1
