This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents the pattern and determinants of intra-industry trade (IIT) in Australian manufacturing since the late 1970s. The results point to a sharp rise in IIT from the mid 1980s which appears to be linked with an outward-oriented policy. Industry-level analysis indicates that industries which experienced a sharp fall in protection are the industries with the higher levels of IIT. These include textiles, garments, rubber products, and machinery and equipment. An increasing trend in IIT suggests that the short-term adjustment costs associated with trade liberalisation are likely to be lower, and that liberalisation can proceed without huge short-term adjustment costs. Using a logit model the determinants of IIT are investigated. Results indicate that IIT is positively related to product differentiation and scale economies, and negatively related to the levels of protection and foreign ownership in the pre-liberalisation period. In the post-liberalisation period, however, scale economies explain the inter-industry variations in IIT. R&D intensity and close economic integration appear to have no impact on IIT regardless of the nature of the policy regime.

This book was released on 2024-01-05 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intra-industry trade (IIT) has emerged as a major area of research in the analysis of international and intra-regional specialization. This book highlights the changes which the Indian economy has witnessed in the past two decades following the economic liberalization of the 1990s. It has been revealed that there are comparatively few studies in the context of developing economies which focus on the country-industry-specific determinants of aggregate and sectoral IIT. The book incorporates several hypotheses to analyze demand-driven, supply-induced, industry-specific, and policy-oriented drivers influencing the level of bilateral aggregate and sectoral IIT in the Indian context. Moreover, several trade-related, labor specific and trade overlap induced factors dictate the growth trajectory and the employment level of an economy. Therefore, the current research conducts an empirical analysis to examine each hypothesis and provide significant findings to explore the relationship between key economic variables, their interaction effects, and their impact on the growth of the Indian economy.

Book International Trade from Economic and Policy Perspective

Download or read book International Trade from Economic and Policy Perspective written by Vito Bobek and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-08-22 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's international trade is radically more complex. The revolution in information and communication technologies fostered an internationalisation of supply chains which created a nexus between trade, investment, and services which is at the heart of so much of today's international commerce. The degree of recent change has created an uncertainty that now demands new global trade systems - a new set of rules for the new environment. This book tackles some of the unresolved issues in international trade that will continue to press into the next decades. Covering an array of topics critical to today's scholar, economic policy designer and business leader, the book International Trade from Economic and Policy Perspective is comprised of four sections: International Trade Theories, Trade Patterns, Government Policies and International Trade, and Business Perspective of International Trade.

Book excerpt: The thesis consists of four core essays which focus on important issues relating to international trade, growth and inequality. The first essay examines the determinants of trade based on global production sharing (network trade) by building a theoretical framework and empirically testing it using a panel dataset. Over the past four decades, network trade has grown at a much faster rate than total world manufacturing trade. Identification of the determinants of this emerging trade pattern is, therefore, important for informing trade policy debates. The model used in the empirical analysis captures a number of important explanatory variables ignored in the previous literature. A range of panel data estimation techniques is used in the model. The results suggest that technology, institutions and macroeconomic stability all play a significant role in determining inter-country differences in network trade. The paper concludes with a discussion on the challenges for policy makers in their attempt to reap gains from global production sharing. The second essay studies the transmission of exchange rate changes into import prices (exchange rate pass-through) in the presence of global production sharing. The chapter builds and simulates a model, which postulates that exchange rate pass-through is lower for network trade compared to final goods trade. It is hypothesised that trade in parts and components, within network trade, is relatively sheltered from exchange rate movements because network trade is largely 'relationship-specific,' including intra-firm trade. Empirically, exchange rate pass-through is examined using a new dataset of manufacturing import prices compiled from the trade price database of the US Bureau of Labour Statistics. The findings indicate that the degree of exchange rate pass-through into the import prices of parts and components is considerably lower than that for import prices of final goods. The third essay examines patterns and determinants of global production sharing with an emphasis on how Australian manufacturing fits into global production sharing. Though Australia is a minor player in global production sharing, there is evidence that Australian manufacturing has a distinct competitive edge in specialized, skill-intensive tasks in several industries including aircraft, medical devices, machine tools, measuring and scientific equipment and photographic equipment. Specialization within global production sharing in high value-to-weight components and final goods, which are suitable for air transport, helps Australian manufacturing to overcome the 'tyranny of distance' in world trade. Institutions and technological base give Australia a competitive edge within global production sharing. The last essay examines the impact of inequality and poverty on economic growth. Recent research has highlighted a negative impact of inequality on economic growth. The paper re-evaluates this hypothesis, focusing on both inequality and poverty and their interaction. The paper initially replicates previous results, showing that inequality has a negative impact on growth. However, it is shown that after taking into account both inequality and poverty, the negative effect of inequality on growth appears to be concentrated amongst countries with high poverty. This finding makes a case for policies targeted towards alleviating poverty, rather than policies that redistribute without addressing absolute poverty.
