Core Labor Standards and Competitiveness: Implications for Global Trade Policy
Review of International Economics - Tập 9 Số 2 - Trang 317-328 - 2001
Will Martín, Keith E. Maskus
One of the principal arguments for inclusion of core labor standards in the WTO is that weak labor standards provide an illegitimate boost to competitiveness and may result in a “race to the bottom” in labor standards worldwide. This paper shows that, if the violation of labor standards results from discrimination against particular workers in export industries, employment, output, and competitive... hiện toàn bộ
A Theory of International Strategic Alliance
Review of International Economics - Tập 11 Số 5 - Trang 758-769 - 2003
Zhiqi Chen
AbstractAs an alternative to exporting, a firm can enter a foreign market by forging a strategic alliance with its foreign counterpart. The alliance eliminates transportation costs and duplications in product distribution networks. At the same time, strategic alliance lessens competition between the firms so that it leads to smaller outputs and higher prices. The degree of lessening of competition... hiện toàn bộ
The Effects of Trade Liberalization On Cost‐Reducing Horizontal Mergers*
Review of International Economics - Tập 3 Số 2 - Trang 141-155 - 1995
Ngo Van Long, Neil Vousden
AbstractThis paper analyzes the effects of tariff reductions on horizontal mergers in a Cournot oligopoly in a two‐country world. It is shown that for mergers between two domestic firms and for cross‐border mergers which supply both markets from a foreign plant, unilateral tariff reduction encourages mergers which concentrate market power at the expense of mergers which reduce cost, while bilatera... hiện toàn bộ
International Financial Liberalization and Economic Growth

The analysis suggests that the answer is “yes.” First, liberalizing restrictions on international portfolio flows tends to enhance stock market liquidity. n turn, enhanced stock market liq... hiện toàn bộ
Do Ethnic Enclaves Impede Immigrants' Integration? Evidence from a Quasi‐experimental Social‐interaction Approach
Review of International Economics - Tập 21 Số 2 - Trang 311-325 - 2013
Alexander M. Danzer, Fırat Yaman
AbstractIt is widely debated whether immigrants who live among co‐ethnics are less willing to integrate into the host society. Exploiting the quasi‐experimental guest worker placement across German regions during the 1960/70s as well as information on immigrants' inter‐ethnic contact networks and social activities, we are able to identify the causal effect of ethnic concentration on social integra... hiện toàn bộ
Imperfect Labor Mobility and Unemployment in a Dual Economy*
Review of International Economics - Tập 14 Số 4 - Trang 698-708 - 2006
Gu Wei, Shigemi Yabuuchi
AbstractThis paper examines the implications of imperfect labor mobility and unemployment in developing countries. We analyze the effects of wage subsidy policies, factor growth, and the change in labor mobility on unemployment and national income in an economy that is characterized by the existence of both imperfect labor mobility and urban unemployment.

Technology Adoption, Export Status, and Skill Upgrading: Theory and Evidence
Review of International Economics - Tập 20 Số 2 - Trang 315-331 - 2012
María Bas
AbstractThis paper develops a model of trade that features heterogeneous firms, technology choice and different types of skilled labor in a general equilibrium framework to explain within‐industry increase in the relative demand for skilled workers. Its main contribution is to investigate the impact of firms' export and technology choice decisions on skill upgrading. Only firms in the upper range ... hiện toàn bộ
Exchange Rate Volatility and Exports: Regional Differences between Developing and Industrialized Countries
Review of International Economics - Tập 9 Số 1 - Trang 133-152 - 2001
Christine Sauer, Alok K. Bohara
This study uses a large panel of industrialized and developing countries to investigate the link between exchange rate volatility and exports. Although the empirical literature on this relationship is extensive, a clear consensus about its nature and importance is yet to emerge. Using fixed‐ and random‐effects models to capture cross‐country differences, pooled export equations are estimated for t... hiện toàn bộ
