摘要：This paper provides empirical evidence on the extent to which the Asian Newly Industrialised Economies (NIEs) compete in world export markets. Our results support existing studies which emphasise the importance of allowing for intra-LDC competition in modelling an individual developing country's exports. Whilst the Asian NIEs are regarded as a model for other developing countries to emulate, one has to consider whether such an expansion in export supply would be at the expense of OECD economie...

摘要：A Markov-switching model is fit for 18 exchange rates at quarterly frequencies. The model fits well in-sample for many exchange rates. By the mean-squared-error criterion, the Markov model does not generate superior forecasts to a random walk or the forward rate. There appears to be some evidence that the forecasts of the Markov model are superior at predicting the direction of change of the exchange rate.

摘要：The general equilibrium effects of a tariff in the presence of product differentiation, increasing returns to scale, and non-cooperative, static firm behavior are explored. Optimal markups are treated as endogenous. The subsequent 'procompetitive effects' of tariff reform are systematically related to the nature of the game played by firms. Furthermore, markups are not always increasing in the tariff. This depends on the entry assumptions, of which three are considered: no entry, entry, and do...

摘要：This paper derives a condition for factor price equalization (FPE) in a Heckscher-Ohlin model with many goods, factors, and countries. Using Dixit and Norman's integrated world economy (IWE) two sets, called lenses, are constructed: one spanned by the factor vectors used to produce goods in the IWE; the other spanned by the countries' factor endowments, If the factor-endowment lens ever passes outside the factor-use lens, then FPE is impossible. In this sense, therefore, FPE requires that fact...
