Trade Elasticity and Vertical Specialisation [PDF]

open access: possibleSSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
This paper shows that vertical specialisation can increase the elasticity of trade to income, hence explaining dramatic events such as the great trade collapse. We argue that a change in the extent of vertical specialisation affects the elasticity of trade to income, while a mere change in global production levels for a given extent of vertical ...

Latin American trade elasticities

Journal of Economics and Finance, 1999
An important issue in applied international economics is the extent to which trade flows adjust to changes in income, relative prices, and exchange rates. While there have been numerous surveys regarding merchandise trade elasticities in industrial economies such as Japan and the United States, relatively little work has been completed with respect to ...

Gains from Trade with Variable Trade Elasticities

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2019
AbstractWe measure gains from trade in multisector economies with nonhomothetic preferences where changes in trade costs generate reallocation of expenditure across sectors. We show how to measure the trade elasticity and how it relates to welfare. In this environment, the trade elasticity now varies both across countries and with levels of trade costs.

Bilateral Trade Elasticities

The Review of Economics and Statistics, 1990
This paper estimates income and price elasticities for bilateral world trade. In addition to testing the properties of the error terms, the dynamic specification, and the assumption of parameter constancy, the analysis presents the first application of the Bank Spectrum estimator to bilateral trade flows for all countries.

Trade Models, Trade Elasticities, and the Gains from Trade [PDF]

open access: possible
We argue that the welfare gains from trade in new models with micro-level margins exceed those in frameworks without these margins. Theoretically, we show that for fixed trade elasticity, different models predict identical trade flows, but different patterns of micro-level price variation.
