Studying Iranian Economic Integration with OIC Members Using Gravity Model
author
Abstract:
OIC members have much potential in their economic development. Therefore, their economic integration leads to more increment for partners and deal with global system as a unique organization. Consequently, studying the convergence of OIC members and their encountered challenges has especial importance which can assist the policy makers to develop their commercial relationship and consequently employment enhancing and economic situation improvement in future planning. Therefore, in this research the commercial effects of selected OIC members during 2005-2011 were modeled using gravity method. Results showed that from the basic gravity equation, the economy size of other 6 OIC members is the main determinant in the Iranian bilateral trade relationship. Thereby, 1% increase in the economy size of other 6 OIC members, leads to 0.91% increase in the volume of trade inflows between considered OIC members.JEL Classification: F15, F36, O11Received: 1/6/2013 Approved: 7/29/2013

full textThe Impact of Integration on International Trade Flows: the Cases of EU, OIC & ECO
The growth of regional trade blocks has been one of the major developments in international relations in recent years. Regional agreements vary widely but, all have the objective of reducing barriers to trade between member countries that in most cases result in increasingly trade flows and economic growth. This paper attempts to explore the results of trade integration in ECO, EU and OIC block...
full textThe Gravity Model of Economic Interaction
Newton’s physical law of gravity inspired the original gravity model of economic interaction over space. The intuition was that economic flows might plausibly vary with the masses of economic activity at origin and destination and inversely with the distance between origin and destination. Newton’s Law applied strictly predicts that the economic flow Xij from origin i to destination j is Xij = ...
full textSelecting team members: a computational model for studying network dynamics
In this paper we present a computational model of interaction between agents in order to participate to projects. We are interested in studying the effects of different behavioral components in terms of team selection, agent aggregation and performance of groups. Our theoretical approach is compared to the results of two human experiments where subjects interacted in a similar game. This compar...
