manufacturing,   etc   ; exports;     Show all 2 Subject
Abstract:
... Behind-the-border time delays due to administrative procedures represent a significant barrier to export. Guided by a Ricardian framework, this paper studies the effect of such delays on exports among OECD countries, and how the effect differs across manufacturing sectors. Results show that time delays hinder exports, particularly in more time-sensitive sectors. With a ten-percent export-delay red ...

Abstract:
... We show that the effect of a sectoral shock on the composition of sectoral shares crucially depends on whether the goods produced in the sector are home-substitutable or not. When a productivity shock hits the market sector that produces non-home-substitutable goods (e.g. manufacturing goods), the shock largely affects the composition of consumption shares of market sectors. On the other hand, whe ...

Abstract:
... We document the recent reductions in the pollution intensity of Chinese manufacturing and utilise the methods developed and applied by Levinson (2009, 2015) and Brunel (2017) to explain the underlying causes of this pollution clean-up. We find that, unlike in the US, compositional changes to the Chinese manufacturing sector have actually increased pollution emissions. This implies that the observe ...
