摘要:
This paper presents a model that pinpoints the exact places and reasons that the propositions of the Heckscher-Ohlin-Samuelson model break down under uncertainty. Within the model, if preferences exhibit decreasing absolute risk aversion, (i) a capital-poor country tends to obtain lower revenues from its resources than the same resources would yield in capital-rich countries, (ii) if there is one riskless and one risky sector, a capital-abundant country tends to have a comparative advantage in the risky sector, and (iii) the pattern of trade depends on the intranational as well as the international distribution of endowments.
