Growth and trade with frictions : a structural estimation framework

Anderson, James E.; Larch, Mario; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2015

We build and estimate a structural dynamic general equilibrium model of growth and trade. Trade affects growth through changes in consumer and producer prices that in turn stimulate or impede physical capital accumulation. At the same time, growth affects trade, directly through changes in...

Trade and Investment in the Global Economy

Anderson, James E. - 2017

We develop a dynamic multi-country trade model with foreign direct investment (FDI) in the form of non-rival technology capital. The model nests structural gravity subsystems for FDI and trade, with accumulation/decumulation of phyisical and technology capital in transition to the steady state....
