Assessing general and partial equilibrium simulations of Doha round outcomes using meta-analysis
Hess, Sebastian; von Cramon-Taubadel, Stephan - Center for European, Governance and Economic … - 2007
. However, simulation results seem to exhibit significant variation across publications, and the often criticised ‘black box …’ character of applied trade models makes meaningful comparisons of simulation results very difficult. As a potential remedy, this … paper presents a meta-analysis of simulation-based Doha round publications. The meta-regression explains simulated welfare …

Meta-Analysis of General and Partial Equilibrium Simulations of Doha Round Outcomes
Hess, Sebastian; von Cramon-Taubadel, Stephan - International Association of Agricultural Economists - IAAE - 2006
. However, meaningful comparisons of simulation results from different sources are difficult. Often significant differences in … the magnitude of simulation results, and to estimate the magnitude of this influence. Findings from our simple econometric … model are plausible and show that each simulation experiment represents a complex interaction of experimental settings that …

The Welfare Implications of Services Liberalization in a Developing Country; Evidence from Tunisia
Jouini, Nizar; Rebei, Nooman - International Monetary Fund (IMF) - 2013
We propose an integrated method based on a two-sector small open economy dynamic and stochastic general equilibrium model to estimate non-tariff barriers and quantify the impact of services liberalization. The major component of trade barriers is explicitly modeled through the introduction of...

The conflict between general equilibrium and the Marshallian cross
Zaman, Asad; Saglam, Ismail - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2010
This paper illustrates on a simple model of production economy how the concept of partial equilibrium can be in an unresolvable conflict with the general equilibrium.

Gauging the Impact of Higher Capital and Oil Costs on Potential Output
Cournède, Boris - Economics Department, Organisation de Coopération et … - 2010
The 2007-2009 period has been characterised by an oil shock followed by a financial crisis. Higher oil prices and the prospect of higher borrowing costs are likely to reduce the productive potential of OECD economies. The present study provides illustrative numerical estimates of the impact...

Extending General Equilibrium to the Tariff Line: U.S. Dairy in the DOHA Development Agenda
Grant, Jason H.; Hertel, Thomas W.; Rutherford, Thomas F. - International Association of Agricultural Economists - IAAE - 2006
Market access has been at the core of eight negotiating rounds of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT). Yet, agricultural trade remains a heavily protected sector, characterized by higher tariffs relative to industrial goods, large tariff dispersions, numerous specific tariffs and...

Meta Response Surface Design for General and Partial Equilibrium Models
Hess, Sebastian; von Cramon-Taubadel, Stephan - European Association of Agricultural Economists - EAAE - 2008
Due to the complexity of general and partial equilibrium models, conventional sensitivity analysis, qualitative reviews or literature-based meta-analyses do not allow for detailed assessments of the role of individual parameters and policy shocks across different models. Therefore, the partial...

MODELING THE LAND-USE AND GREENHOUSE-GAS IMPLICATIONS OF BIOFUELS
KHANNA, MADHU; ZILBERMAN, DAVID - In: Climate Change Economics (CCE) 03 (2012) 03, pp. 1250016-1
The emergence of biofuels as an agricultural commodity has integrated the agricultural, energy and livestock sectors and expanded the scope of models being used to analyze the effects of energy policies. It has increased the importance of incorporating spatial heterogeneity in land availability...

Partial versus General Equilibrium Calorie and Revenue Effects of a Sugar-Sweetened Beverage Tax
Dharmasena, Senarath; Davis, George C.; Capps Jr., Oral - Agricultural and Applied Economics Association - AAEA - 2011
The current obesity crisis in the United States is generating numerous alternative policy options for combating the problem. One alternative that has been widely proposed is an excise or sales tax on sugar-sweetened non-alcoholic beverages. This literature started out within a very simple...
