Relative prices, labor costs, and productivity are evaluated as determinants of a country's international competitiveness at the industry level. Working with detailed data on unit values and with industry data on productivity, we empirically implement a MacDougall-type model for Spanish and French trade to Brazil, China, Japan, and the U.S. The period under study is 1980 to 2001 and we distinguish in our analysis between homogenous, reference-priced, and differentiated goods. Our results indicate that cost competitiveness factors are only valid for explaining trade with developing countries while other factors are of importance for developed economies. Overall price competitiveness is of importance, but for differentiated goods, factors distinct from prices seem to determine export success."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.2202/1524-5861.1402"],["dc.identifier.fs","572385"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/8040"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/60495"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.publisher","De Gruyter"],["dc.relation.issn","1524-5861"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.title","Unit Values, Productivity, and Trade - Determinants of Spanish Export Strength"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

It is the objective of this paper to analyze the role of trade agreements, price competitiveness, real income, per capita income differences and transport costs in Chilean export trade with the EU. To this end, Chile’s most important export sectors are investigated using panel data from Chile’s main trading partners in the EU over the period 1988-2002. The econometric model used in the simulations is a refined augmented gravity model. It is found that the FTA would strongly boost Chile’s food related exports which face high protection in the EU market."],["dc.identifier.fs","50234"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/8910"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/61424"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.relation.issn","1578-4487"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.subject.ddc","330"],["dc.title","The free trade agreement between Chile and the EU : its potential impact on Chiles's export industry"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

The model of choice in this paper is an endogenous growth model. The AK model –chosen as a representative of an endogenous growth model - is applied to Chilean annual data (1960-1998) and tested. Chile was chosen as a case study, since the Chilean economy shows a respectable growth path that could either be characterized as endogenous or as neoclassical (transitional or steady state). The analysis revealed about two main insights. First, when analyzing long-term growth, the time series should be purged from short-run fluctuations. This can be achieved utilizing a filter. Second, in principle, the differences between the AK model and the neoclassical growth model might not be so significant, making it difficult to discriminate between them from both a theoretical and an empirical point of view."],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/5899"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/61230"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Migrated from goescholar"],["dc.relation.issn","0716-5927"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.access","openAccess"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.subject","Chilean Economy"],["dc.subject.ddc","330"],["dc.title","Does the AK Model Apply to the Chilean Economy?

For the analysis, a comprehensive empirical model is set up that includes climate change, economic opportunities, such as per capita income differentials, links to Germany, home country characteristics (population growth, poverty, consumer confidence, unemployment), the political and institutional situation in the sending countries (measured by internal and external conflict, ethnic and religious tensions, government stability, law and order, military in politics), and a control for migration opportunities to alternative destinations. Panel data techniques (Poisson pseudo-maximum likelihood) for the estimation of the parameters of interest are employed using a panel of 115 (134) origin countries for asylum migration (total migration) over the period of 1996–2017 or 2001–2017, depending on data availability. The analysis reveals that political, socioeconomic, and economic factors determine both total migration and asylum migration. Economic factors are also determinants of asylum applications, as asylum seekers most often come for several reasons. Poverty plays a distinct role in total migration and asylum migration. An alleviation of poverty in origin countries is associated with less overall migration to Germany but with more asylum migration. Increases in average temperature also impact asylum migration in the expected direction, thus, increasing forced migration. The most interesting findings are revealed when considering country groupings (main migration countries, major asylum countries, countries whose asylum applicants enjoy high, intermediate, or low recognition rates)."],["dc.description.abstract","This study analyzes the determinants of both total migration and asylum migration to Germany.
