International trade and unemployment : a quantitative framework ; conference paper

Heid, Benedikt; Larch, Mario - 2013

Quantifying the welfare effects of trade liberalization is a core issue in international trade. Existing frameworks assume perfect labor markets and therefore ignore the effects of aggregate employment changes for welfare. We develop a quantitative trade framework which explicitly models labor...

Gravity, distance, and international trade

Baier, Scott L.; Kerr, Amanda; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2017

We review and interpret the main theoretical developments in the gravity literature from its very early, a-theoretical applications to the latest structural contributions. We also discuss challenges and implement methods to estimate empirical gravity equations. We finish with a presentation and...

Estimating Gravity Equations with Endogeneous Trade Costs

Rudolph, Stephan - 2010

A basic assumption of the gravity equation of international trade is that increasing trade costs lower exports. But … intuition and theory imply that a high export volume lowers bilateral trade costs as well, because a fixed cost intensive trade … sector probably bears lower average costs with more trade. In this case, standard gravity estimation might be biased due to …

Using lasso-type penalties to model time-varying covariate effects in panel data regressions : a novel approach illustrated by the 'death of distance' in international trade

Hess, Wolfgang; Persson, Maria; Rubenbauer, Stephanie; … - 2013

When analyzing panel data using regression models, it is often reasonable to allow for time-varying covariate effects. We propose a novel approach to modelling timevarying coefficients in panel data regressions, which is based on penalized regression techniques. To illustrate the usefulness of...

Distance and border effects in international trade : a comparison of estimation methods

Magerman, Glenn; Studnicka, Zuzanna; Van Hove, Jan - 2016

This paper compares various estimation methods often used in the estimation of gravity models of international trade …. The authors first discuss different structural and consistent estimation techniques, their underlying assumptions and … empirical methodologies. They focus on a comparison of the distance and border effects across estimation techniques. For the …
