Endogenous skill formation and the source country effects of international labor market integration

Egger, Hartmut; Felbermayr, Gabriel - 2007

With endogenous skills and given technology, labor market integration necessarily lowers welfare of the left-behind in a poor sending country, even if all agents face identical emigration probabilities. This is in sharp contrast to the case of exogenous skill supply.

Immigration, search, and redistribution : a quantitative assessment of native welfare

Battisti, Michele; Felbermayr, Gabriel; Peri, Giovanni; … - 2014

We study the effects of immigration on native welfare in a general equilibrium model featuring two skill types, search frictions, wage bargaining, and a redistributive welfare state. Our quantitative analysis suggests that, in all 20 countries studied, immigration attenuates the effects of...

Does WTO membership make a difference at the extensive margin of world trade?

Felbermayr, Gabriel; Kohler, Wilhelm K. - 2007

In his seminal paper, Rose (2004) concluded from a gravity-type study of bilateral trade that the GATT/WTO does not play a strong role in encouraging trade. Rose looks at countries where the amount of trade was positive to start with (intensive margin). In this paper, we present a...

Bilateral Trade and Similarity of Income Distributions: The Role of Second Moments

Eppinger, Peter S.; Felbermayr, Gabriel - 2014

We use an augmented gravity model to revisit the effect of similarity in income distributions on bilateral trade flows. Disentangling supply-side and demand-side mechanisms, we document a robust new regularity: while differences in average incomes between two countries increase trade,...
