Portuguese intra-industry trade and labor market adjustment costs:the sah again

Faustino, Horácio C.; Leitão, Nuno Carlos

This paper provides an empirical test of the SAH (smooth adjustment hypothesis) using the data on Portugal. According to the SAH, intra-industry trade leads to relatively lower adjustment costs in comparison to inter-industry trade. The paper tests the SAH by using a dynamic panel data analysis that takes into account lagged effects of changes in the MIIT (marginal intra-industry trade) index. The regressions u...


Country-specific determinants of intra-industry trade:evidence from Portugal

Leitão, Nuno Carlos; Faustino, Horácio C.

Fragmentation, Vertical Intra-Industry Trade, and Automobile components

Leitão, Nuno Carlos; Faustino, Horácio C.; Yoshida, Yushi

By analyzing vertical intra-industry trade (VIIT) within Portugal's automobile parts and components industry, this study adds new empirical evidence for the international fragmentation of the production process. For trade partner countries, we choose the EU countries, the BRICs, and the US during the period 1995 to 2005. From panel data analysis, the empirical evidence supports the notion that shorter geographi...

Intra-industry trade and labor costs: The smooth adjustment hypothesis

Faustino, Horácio C.; Leitão, Nuno Carlos

According to the smooth adjustment hypothesis (SAH), the labor-market adjustment costs in the form of unemployed resources will be lower if trade expansion is intra-industry rather than inter-industry in nature. This is what we attempt to test empirically using the Brulhart (1994) marginal intra-industry trade (MIIT) index and a dynamic panel data analysis. Considering the contemporaneous effect the results do ...
