Increasing returns, monopolistic competition, and international trade: Revisiting gains from trade
Journal of International Economics. 2022. Vol. 137. Article 103595.
We study the canonical Krugman (1979) trade model with non-CES preferences that yield autarky at finite trade costs. We prove a non-monotone impact of gradual trade liberalization. At first, near autarky, emerging trade reduces world welfare, while at free trade it becomes large enough to be beneficial (Krugman's result). This non-monotonicity persists under heterogenous firms. The harmful small-scale trade is explained by variable markups and underpriced
imports, which become socially excessive. Unlike protectionists, we argue that “liberalization should go far”. On the other hand, we show that anti-dumping measures can be viewed as a remedy for the aforementioned imports distortion. ©

Introduction. Despite the recognised role of agglomerations as drivers of eco-nomic growth and as instruments for achieving sustainable development goals,the theoretical foundations of agglomeration theory remain fragmented, whileexisting research approaches offer poorly integrated interpretations of agglo-meration effects, which hinders the formulation of coherent principles for territorial governance. Purpose. This study aims at developing the principles ...

The financial stress trajectory, which represented the "trace" of monetary impacts on the global economy, was calculated via the behavior of inertia, damping, and recovery factors operating on financial markets. ...

Contract manufacturing is gaining momentum in the pharmaceutical industry. Many pharmaceutical companies that do not have enough time and financial resources to build a full-fledged drug development chain transfer some or all phases of development and production to outsourcing. Today, many even large pharmaceutical companies transfer production to developing countries on a contract basis in ...

The last decades witnessed a never-ending debate about the generation of innovations under different circumstances and, to a lesser extent, on adoption. With a dedicated focus on technologies, the topic of adoption and diffusion emerged only a little. However, this focus is on technologies, expressed in Technology Acceptance Models and Technology Diffusion Models, which cover ...

Innovation has been discussed in political, academic, management and public debates for many years. It’s usually understood as a driver of change and economic development in different contexts depending on the nature of the debate. What is often neglected is society and people’s perceptions. In each debate, a handful of representatives of social groups claim ...

We revisit Krugman’s (J Int Econ 9(4):469–479, 1979.) classical trade model in its general form with several asymmetric countries and unspecified additive utility functions. We present the weakest known conditions on utilities sufficient for the existence of equilibrium. These conditions are also necessary under symmetric preferences. Using the same method for Bertoletti and Etro’s (Econ ...

This paper develops a modeling technique of “attainable profit” functions, applying it to two models of monopolistic competition. First, it revisits the Krugman's classical trade model in the most general form: several asymmetric countries and non-specified additive utility functions. We establish the weakest conditions on utilities, sufficient for the existence of equilibria. These conditions are ...

События последних лет указывают на развивающиеся в мире автаркические тенденции в научно-технологической сфере. В статье на основе нескольких кейсов рассматривается, как эти процессы протекают в российской науке. Изучаются параметры циркуляции исследователей, международное научное сотрудничество и его регулирование, инициированные государством изменения в грантовом финансировании исследований и подходы к строительству установок класса «мегасайенс». Циркуляция кадров в науке пока слабо выражена, причем приток происходит в основном из СНГ, а отток – в страны с развитой наукой. ...

Our novel approach enriches the general additive monopolistic competition model with a space of product characteristics: consumers’ “ideal varieties”. This paper bridges two traditions in modelling markets with horizontal product differentiation: the Hotelling’s (Econ J 39(153):41–57, 1929) “address economy” and Chamberlinian Dixit–Stiglitz monopolistic competition. Unlike Hotelling, our partially localised competition involves intersecting zones of service among producers. ...
