Liberalized trade policy and inequality : evidence from post-Multi-Fibre Arrangement India and some theoretical issues
Kar, Mausumi; Kar, Saibal - 2015
global south. The textile and clothing industry is the largest foreign exchange earner and the largest employment provider in …-level activities, size-wise as well as state-wise, thereby creating some sort of inequality. Moreover, we also show that the aggregate … wage bill of export-oriented firms in India actually rose during this period. However, the aggregate state-level wage bill …

General equilibrium trade policy analysis with structural gravity
Larch, Mario; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2016 - Manuscript date: June 2016
We try to achieve this objective in four steps. First, we focus on the original Armington CES gravity model, as a representative framework for a large class of GE models, to offer a deep analysis of the structural relationships underlying the general equilibrium gravity system, and how they can...

Estimating trade policy effects with structural gravity
Piermartini, Roberta; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2016 - Manuscript date: July 14, 2016
Then, we integrate the latest developments in the empirical gravity literature and we offer six recommendations to obtain reliable partial equilibrium estimates of the effects of bilateral and non-discriminatory trade policies within the same comprehensive, and theoretically-consistent...

Estimating trade policy effects with structural gravity
Piermartini, Roberta; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2016
The objective of this manuscript is to serve as a practical guide for estimations with the structural gravity model. After a brief review of the theoretical foundations, we summarize the main challenges with gravity estimations and we review the solutions to address those challenges. Then, we...

Policy and politics : trade adjustment assistance in the crossfire
Laincz, Christopher A.; Matschke, Xenia; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2016
The United States introduced Federal Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) as part of the 1962 Trade Expansion Act to dampen the adverse impact of increased trade on workers. Applications to receive TAA require approval from the Department of Labor. Guided by the technical criteria used by the U.S....

Tariffs and politics : evidence from Trump's trade wars
Fetzer, Thiemo; Schwarz, Carlo - 2019
Are retaliatiory tariffs politically targeted and, if so, are they effective? Do countries designing a retaliation response face a trade-off between maximizing political targeting and mitigating domestic economic harm? We use the recent trade escalation between the US, China, the European Union...
