Can trade really hurt? An empirical follow-up on Samuelson's controversial paper
Bitzer, Jürgen; Görg, Holger; Schröder, Philipp J. H. - 2008
This paper investigates Samuelson's (JEP, 2004) argument that technical progress of the trade partner may hurt the home country. We illustrate this prospect in a simple Ricardian model for sitations with outward knowledge spillovers. Within this framework Samuelson's Act II effects may occur....

Exports, international investment, and plant performance : evidence from a non-parametric test
Girma, Sourafel; Görg, Holger; Strobl, Eric - 2003
This paper compares the performance of purely domestic plants, domestic exporters and domestic multinationals. For our empirical analysis we utilise a non-parametric approach based on the principle of first order stochastic dominance. We find that the distributions for multinationals dominate...
