This paper investigates the effects of the transfer of pollution abatement technology on the level of urban unemployment, the total amount of pollution, and social welfare in a small, open Harris Todaro economy. We show that these transfers reduce urban unemployment and decrease the total amount...

We examine the effect of emigration of skilled and unskilled labor on pre-existing wage gap between the skilled-unskilled labor. The results by Marjit and Kar (2005) will be confirmed also in a dual economy setup.

The study examines the export-led growth (ELG) hypothesis for Cambodia. The sample covers annual observations between 1972 and 2008. The Granger's non-causality tests support ELG as well as the growth-led exports. Also, there is causality from imports growth to exports growth. The study also...

This paper estimates the trade effects of WAMZ between 2005 and 2010 using the gravity model. In addition, it also estimates the determinants of bilateral trade flows in WAMZ countries. The paper finds that WAMZ has been trade diverting although country specific analysis reveals that individual...

This paper discusses the results of the application of Jones' Inequality to the n-country, m-good Ricardo–Graham model. In the Jones' Inequality model, the number of countries is the same as the number of goods produced. On one hand, if a country is divided into regions for the purposes of...

Export is dominated by enterprises that trade more than one good with customers in more than one destination country. Germany, one of the leading actors on the world market for goods, is a case in point. Theoretical models of multiple-product, multiple-destination exporters that can guide...

This study considers a small open economy in which two tradable final goods are produced by using a non-tradable resource good, which has an open-access property, as an input as well as a primary factor. If the intrinsic growth rate of the resource is relatively low, there may be no non-trivial...
