Which indicators of absorptive capacity enhance import-induced South-North convergence in labor intensities?
Hübler, Michael; Glas, Alexander - 2013
We hypothesize that North-South trade is associated with knowledge spillovers that create labor productivity gains depending on various determinants of Southern absorptive capacity. We use the novel World Input-Output Database (WIOD) that provides bilateral and bisectoral panel data for 39...

The energy-bias of North-South technology spillovers: A global, bilateral, bisectoral trade analysis
Hübler, Michael; Glas, Alexander - 2013
We examine variations in the South-North ratios (emerging vs. industrialized countries) of energy and labor intensities driven by imports. We use the novel World Input-Output Database (WIOD) that provides bilateral and bisectoral data for 40 countries and 35 sectors for 1995-2009. We find...

Regulation of pharmaceutical prices: Evidence from a reference price reform in Denmark
Kaiser, Ulrich; Mendez, Susan J.; Rønde, Thomas - 2010
On April 1, 2005, Denmark changed the way references prices, a main determinant of reimbursements for pharmaceutical purchases, are calculated. The previous reference prices, which were based on average EU prices, were substituted to minimum domestic prices. Novel to the literature, we estimate...

How do drug prices respond to a change from external to internal reference pricing? Evidence from a Danish regulatory reform
Kaiser, Ulrich; Mendez, Susan J. - 2015
We study the effects of a change in the way patient reimbursements are calculated on the prices of pharmaceuticals using quasi-experimental data for Denmark which switched from external (where reimbursements are based on prices of similar products in foreign countries) to internal reference...
