Heterogeneous economic integration agreement effects
Baier, Scott L.; Bergstrand, Jeffrey H.; Clance, Matthew W. - 2015
Gravity equations have been used for more than 50 years to estimate ex post the partial effects of trade costs on international trade flows, and the well-known - and traditionally presumed exogenous - "trade-cost elasticity" plays a central role in computing general equilibrium trade-flow and...

Global gains from trade liberalization
Fan, Haichao; Lai, Edwin L.-C.; Qi, Han - 2012 - This draft: March 31, 2012
What has been the overall global welfare impact of the accession to the World Trade Organization of a large country like China, or the global welfare impact of the completion of the Uruguay round of GATT negotiations? Can we come up with a simple user-friendly formula to calculate the global...

International trade in general oligopolistic equilibrium
Neary, J. Peter - 2015
This paper presents a new model of oligopoly in general equilibrium and explores its implications for positive and normative aspects of international trade. Assuming "continuum-Pollak" preferences, the model allows for consistent aggregation over a continuum of sectors, in each of which a small...

On the heterogeneous trade and welfare effects of GATT/WTO membership
Felbermayr, Gabriel; Larch, Mario; Yalçin, Erdal; … - 2020
We build on the latest developments in the structural gravity literature to quantify the partial and general equilibrium effects of GATT/WTO membership on trade and welfare. Using an extensive database covering manufacturing trade for 186 countries over the period 1980-2016, we find that the...

Putting Canada in the penalty box : trade and welfare effects of eliminating NAFTA
Baier, Scott L.; Bergstrand, Jeffrey H.; Bruno, John P. - 2019
Three years ago, very few economists would have imagined that one of the newest and fastest growing research areas in international trade is the use of quantitative trade models to estimate the economic welfare losses from dissolutions of major countries' economic integration agreements (EIAs)....

Quantifying the impact of economic sanctions on international trade in the energy and mining sectors
Larch, Mario; Shikher, Serge; Syropoulos, Constantinos; … - 2021
Capitalizing on the latest developments in the gravity literature, we utilize two new datasets on sanctions and trade to study the impact of economic sanctions on international trade in the mining sector, which includes oil and natural gas. We demonstrate that the gravity equation is well suited...
