Home and Regional Biases and Border Effects in Armington Type Models
Whalley, John - 2006
We discuss biases in preferences and their trade effects in terms of impacts on non-neutral trade flows motivated by recent literature on both home bias and the border effect. These terms take on multiple definitions in the literature and are often used interchangeably even though they differ....

The Impact of China on the Exports of Other Asian Countries
Eichengreen, Barry - 2004
We analyze the impact of China's growth on the exports of other Asian countries. Our innovation is to distinguish the … increase in China's demand for imports from its increased penetration of export markets. Using the gravity model, we … disaggregate among commodity types and account for the endogeneity of Chinese exports. We confirm the tendency for China's exports …

A Minimalist Model for the Ruble During the Russian Invasion of Ukraine
Lorenzoni, Guido; Werning, Iván - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2022
This note isolates an overlooked economic force for the Ruble to appreciate in response to international sanctions limiting exports to Russia. The economic intuition is that when Russians are unable to buy the mix of foreign goods they wish, then foreign goods becomes less attractive, increasing...

One Money, One Market : Estimating the Effect of Common Currencies on Trade
Rose, Andrew K. - 1999
A gravity model is used to assess the separate effects of exchange rate volatility and currency unions on international trade. The panel data set used includes bilateral observations for five years spanning 1970 through 1990 for 186 countries. In this data set, there are over one hundred...

Geopolitics and International Trade Infrastructure
Galiani, Sebastián; Paz y Miño, José Manuel; … - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2021
We develop a simple (incumbent versus entrant) strategic deterrence model to study the economic and geopolitical interactions underlying international trade-related infrastructure projects such as the Panama Canal. We study the incentives for global geopolitical players to support allied...

Entry, Trade, and Exporting over the Cycle
Alessandria, George A. - 2019
We study how international trade and the exporting decisions of establishments affect establishment creation over the business cycle in a general equilibrium model. The model captures two key features of establishment and exporter dynamics: i) new establishments start small and grow over time...

Latent Exports : Almost Ideal Gravity and Zeros
Anderson, James E. - 2020
Almost Ideal gravity associates zero trade flows with variable and fixed trade cost variation in a flexible demand system. Latent trade shares between non-partners are inferred from the Tobit estimator applied to trade among 75 countries and 25 sectors in 2006. Latent Trade Bias (LTB) is the...

Trade and the Global Recession
Eaton, Jonathan - 2011
We develop a dynamic multi-country general equilibrium model to investigate forces acting on the global economy during the Great Recession and ensuing recovery. Our multi-sector framework accounts completely for countries' trade, investment, production, and GDPs in terms of different sets of...

Gravity, Productivity and the Pattern of Production and Trade
Anderson, James E. - 2009
The effects of geography and productivity on the global pattern of production are captured here in a specific factors gravity model. Simple enough for sharp results, the model is yet rich enough to contain the high dimensional productivity frictions in production and distribution of a many...

Gravity for Dummies and Dummies for Gravity Equations
Baldwin, Richard - 2006
This paper provides a minimalist derivation of the gravity equation and uses it to identify three common errors in the literature, what we call the gold, silver and bronze medal errors. The paper provides estimates of the size of the biases taking the currency union trade effect as an example....
