Energy abundance, trade and industry specialization

The Energy Journal, 2015
Do countries with large energy endowments have larger energy-intensive sectors? We answer this question empirically using a panel with 14 high-income countries from Europe, America and Asia and 10 broad sectors, from 1970 to 1997. Energy-abundant countries have 7 to 10 percent higher employment and 13 to 17 percent higher net exports per value added in

Review of International Economics, 2011
AbstractContrary to the popular belief, specialization is not necessary for gravity equations.

Specialization is just one special case satisfying this condition.

Globalizing Solar: Industry Specialization and Firm Demands for Trade Protection

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2015
Governments are investing billions of dollars in low-carbon energy technologies in order to address climate change. Recently governments have also adopted protectionist measures in low-carbon energy technology sectors. In the solar photovoltaic industry, governments in both Europe and the United States responded to a rise in Chinese module exports ...

Vertical specialization in North–South trade: Industrial relocation, wage and welfare

Review of International Economics, 2019
AbstractThis paper presents a North–South trade model with vertically linked industries and examines how declining costs of trade across stages of production encourage vertical specialization and affect wages and welfare. As trade costs fall below a threshold, the production of all final goods relocates to the South and vertical specialization emerges.

Trade Liberalization and Infra-Industry Specialization: The Australian Experience

1994
Much of the growth in trade among the industrialised countries, and more recently among countries in the Asia-Pacific region, has taken the form of intra-industry trade (IIT). Australia has historically had one of the lowest shares of IIT among OECD countries.

Vertical specialization and intra-industry trade: The role of factor endowments

Weltwirtschaftliches Archiv, 2002
Vertical Specialization and Intra-Industry Trade: The Role of Factor Endowments. — In this paper, we use vertical differentiation models of the Falvey-Kierzkowski type to study the effects of differences in factor endowments on vertical intraindustry specialization.
