EU enlargement and the gains from trade
Calin-Vlad, Demian - 2013
In this paper I quantify the welfare gains of the 2004 EU enlargement as a result of the abolition of border controls, both for incumbents and for new members. I build a multi-sector Ricardian model, allowing for linkages across sectors, similar to the one in Caliendro and Parro (2011). As with...

The comparative advantage of Dutch cities
Brakman, Steven; Hendrich, Tijl; Marrewijk, Charles van; … - 2020
The trade literature often treats countries as dimensionless points, which is a strong assumption. Agglomeration or lumpiness of production factors within countries can affect the national pattern of trade. In this paper we analyze comparative advantage patterns for 22 cities and 4 regions for...

Factor-biased technical change and specialization patterns
Brandt, Jana; Meckl, Jürgen; Savin, Ivan - 2011
We analyze the medium- and long-run effects of international integration of capital markets on specialization patterns of countries. For that purpose, we incorporate induced technical change into a Heckscher-Ohlin model with a continuum of final goods. This provides a comprehensive theory that...

Heterogeneous technology diffusion and ricardian trade patterns
Kerr, William R. - 2016
Migration and trade are often linked through ethnic networks boosting bilateral trade. This study uses migration to quantify the importance of Ricardian technology differences for international trade. The framework provides the first panel estimates connecting country-industry productivity and...

Comparative advantage in (non-)routine production
Archanskaia, Liza; Van Biesebroeck, Johannes; Willmann, … - 2020
We illustrate a new source of comparative advantage that is generated by countries' different ability to adjust to technological change. Our model introduces substitution of workers in codifiable (routine) tasks with more efficient machines, a process extensively documented in the labor...

The distributional effects of international fragmentation
Kohler, Wilhelm - 2002
Economic globalization causes an increasing international fragmentation (disintegration) of value-added-chains, whereby firms outsource components of production to foreign markets. There is a high level of concern about unwelcome distributional effects. This paper provides a theoretical...
