Estimating the substitution elasticities of import of factory industries using micro data and comparing long-term and short-term elasticities. [PDF]
Estimating the substitution elasticity of imported products is a key parameter for analyzing trade policies, especially trade integration issues. In general, this elasticity represents the intensity of the impact of import demand on domestic demand from ...

The Long and Short (Run) of Trade Elasticities
When countries change most favored nation (MFN) tariffs, partners that trade on MFN terms experience plausibly exogenous tariff changes. Using this variation, we estimate the trade elasticity at short and long horizons with local projections.

Import Demand Elasticities and Trade Distortions [PDF]
To study the effects of tariffs on gross domestic product (GDP), one needs import demand elasticities at the tariff line level that are consistent with GDP maximization. These do not exist. The authors modify Kohli's (1991) GDP function approach to estimate demand elasticities for 4,625 imported goods in 117 countries.

The impact of immigration on international trade: a meta‐analysis [PDF]
Since the early 1990s many studies have been conducted on the impact of international migration on international trade, predominantly from the host country perspective. Because most studies have adopted broadly the same specification, namely a log‐linear
