Contents:
Preliminaries: Two sector models -- The Heckscher-Ohlin model -- Many goods and factors -- Trade in intermediate inputs and wages -- Increasing returns and the gravity equation -- Gains from trade and regional agreements -- Import tariffs and dumping -- Import quotas and export subsidies -- Political economy of trade policy -- Trade and endogenous growth -- Multinationals and organization of the firm -- APPENDIX A: Price, productivity, and terms of trade indexes -- Appendix B: Discrete choice models.
Summary: "Robert Feenstra steps beyond theory to consider empirical evidence as well. He covers all the basic material including the Ricardian and Hecksher-Ohlin models, extension to many goods and factors, and the role of tariffs, quotas, and other trade policies, recent material including imperfect competition, outsourcing, political economy, multinationals, and endogenous growth; and new material including the gravity equation and the organization of the firm in international trade."--Jacket
