India in the Global and Regional Trade: Determinants of Aggregate and Bilateral Trade Flows and Firms' Decision to Export
Srinivasan, T. N.; Archana, Vani - 2009
This paper contributes to two strands of literature on empirical models of trade flows and trade policy. The first and the older strand is that of gravity models of bilateral trade flows going back to Hans Linneman (1966) and Tinbergen (1962) and its recent applications, particularly by Adams et...

Prehn, Sören; Brümmer, Bernhard; Thompson, Stanley R. - 2010
The 2003 reforms of the Common Agricultural policy of the European Union introduced decoupled income transfers as the most prominent policy instrument. However, member states were given substantial discretion over the degree and timing of the reform implementation. As a result, different...

The Global Chilling Effects of Antidumping Proliferation
Vandenbussche, Hylke; Zanardi, Maurizio - 2006
Advocates of antidumping (AD) laws downplay their effects by arguing that the trade flows that are subject to AD are small and their distortions negligible. This paper is the first to counter that notion by quantifying the worldwide effect of AD laws on aggregate trade flows. The recent...

The Determining Role of EU in Turkey's Trade Flows: A Gravity Model Approach
Bilici, Özgül; Erdil, Erkan; Yetkiner, I. Hakan - 2008
This paper aims to determine the role of EU in Turkey's trade flows by using the gravity model. It also aims to test whether the Customs Union (of EU) that Turkey entered in 1996 made a deviation in Turkey's trade flows. Regional trade agreements on the one hand create new trade opportunities...

GMO Regulations, International Trade and the Imperialism of Standards
Vigani, Mauro; Raimondi, Valentina; Olper, Alessandro - 2010
This paper deals with the quantification of GMO regulations on bilateral trade flows. A composite index of the complexity of such regulations for sixty countries as well as an objective score for six GMO regulatory sub-dimensions has been developed. Using a gravity model, we show how bilateral...

A sensitivity analysis on the impact of regional trade agreements in bilateral trade flows
Ahcar Olmos, Jaime Rafael; Rodríguez-Barco, David - In: Estudios de Economía 47 (2020) 2, pp. 193-219
We estimate the effect of RTAs on bilateral exports by means of a gravity model analyzing its sensitivity to different specifications and methods. RTAs generate a sizable positive effect. However, shifting to country-pair and time-varying fixed effects systematically reduces coefficients....
