Unlocking New Methods to Estimate Country‐Specific Effects and Trade Elasticities With the Structural Gravity Model
We propose new methods to identify the impact of country‐specific characteristics, policies, and trade costs on bilateral trade flows within the structural gravity framework. We complement theory with a simple two‐stage estimating procedure and offer proof of concept by quantifying the impact of country‐specific research and development (R&D) expenditure on trade. Our results suggest a positive relationship overall but a larger impact of R&D on i…
Technology and jobs
We systematically review the empirical literature on the past four decades of technological change and its impact on employment, distinguishing between five broad technology categories (ICT, Robots, Innovation, TFP-style, Other). We find across studies that the labor displacing effect of technology appears to be more than offset by compensating mechanisms that create or reinstate labor. This holds for most technology-types, suggesting that anxiet…
Productivity dispersion, wage dispersion and superstar firms
Using a rich sample of firms in 14 EU countries from 2000 to 2016, we confirm increases in productivity dispersion, wage dispersion and superstar firms. Beyond reaffirming an incomplete pass‐through from productivity to wages, we present novel empirical evidence of an even weaker pass‐through in industries dominated by superstar firms. This effect is observed in both the lower and upper parts of the productivity and wage distributions, and is str…
Productivity effects of internationalisation through the domestic supply chain
This paper investigates productivity effects for a given firm resulting from the import or export of intermediate inputs by domestic upstream and downstream industries. With the use of manufacturing firms in 19 EU countries over the period 2000–2014, we find that domestic access to intermediate inputs that are also exported leads to higher levels of revenue productivity. The effect appears as more prominent for firms with nonforeign ownership and…
