Further Evidence on Japanese Direct Investment in U.S. Manufacturing
This paper examines the cross-industry determinants of the importance of Japanese direct investment activities in U.S. manufacturing through an extension of the analysis in a recent article by Bruce Kogut and Sea Jin Chang (1991). The results indicate significant positive roles for Japanese technology and marketing assets. While U.S. technology assets are insignificant, a significant negative effect for U.S. marketing assets suggests that entry b…
Internal Rent Capture and the Profit-Concentration Relation
If labor is able to capture a portion of the economic rents in profitable industries, industry profitability and the relation between market structure and profitability may both be mismeasured. This paper estimates a simultaneous equation system in which both the price-cost margin and compensation per worker (including fringe benefits) are endogenous variables. The authors' sample consists of eighty-five well-defined producer goods industries. Th…

U.S. Corporate Interests and the Political Economy of Trade Policy
This paper examines the behavior of American corporations with respect to international trade policy initiatives during the 1970s using survey-generated data on revealed corporate trade policy interests and firmand industry-level data on company characteristics. Direct or proxy variables were developed and applied in linear regression equations using an ordered probit specification, and in an alternative approach using factor analysis to construc…

To the extent that labor shares in the excess return due to product market power, any policies designed to reduce this power may restrain or reduce wages in the affected industry. Thus workers may oppose antitrust action aimed at their own industry. Workers may oppose increased import competition that res…
