This paper examines the relationship between trade (exports), growth, and inequality, using a panel of 100 countries … of trade (exports) on growth. The findings are that in general trade openness advances growth while inequality reduces … growth. However, when we identify an inequality threshold, we find that inequality is positively associated with growth if …

Interestingly the growth story of the model seems to … be observationally equivalent to the Solow (1956) model of steady state growth. It can easily and effectively reflect on … critical contemporary issues without the ammunitions of a more complex neo-classical system. Trade pampers inequality all …

We build and estimate a structural dynamic general equilibrium model of growth and trade. Trade affects growth through …, growth affects trade, directly through changes in country size and indirectly through altering the incidence of trade costs …. Theory translates into an intuitive econometric system that identifies the causal impact of trade on income and growth, and …
