Is the International Border Effect Larger than the Domestic Border Effect? Evidence from U.S. Trade
Coughlin, Cletus C. - 2013
Many studies have found that international borders represent large barriers to trade. But how do international borders compare to domestic border barriers? We investigate international and domestic border barriers in a unified framework. We consider a unique data set of exports from individual...

International Trade Integration : A Disaggregated Approach
Chen, Natalie - 2013
This paper investigates the sources and size of trade barriers at the industry level. We derive a micro-founded measure of industry-specific bilateral trade integration that has an in-built control for time-varying multilateral resistance. This trade integration measure is consistent with a...

Multimarket Linkages, Cartel Discipline and Trade Costs
Agnosteva, Delina - 2018
We build a model of tacit collusion between firms that operate in multiple markets to study the effects of trade costs. A key feature of the model is that cartel discipline is endogenous. Thus, markets that appear segmented are strategically linked via the incentive compatibility constraint....

Gravity, Distance, and International Trade
Baier, Scott L. - 2017
We review and interpret the main theoretical developments in the gravity literature from its very early, a-theoretical applications to the latest structural contributions. We also discuss challenges and implement methods to estimate empirical gravity equations. We finish with a presentation and...

Kyoto and Carbon Leakage : An Empirical Analysis of the Carbon Content of Bilateral Trade
Aichele, Rahel; Felbermayr, Gabriel J. - 2021
Has the Kyoto Protocol induced carbon leakage? We conduct the first empirical ex-post evaluation of the Protocol. We derive a theoretical gravity equation for the CO2 content of trade, which accounts for intermediate inputs, both domestic and imported. The structure of our new panel database of...
