This finding depends on the in-\ntroduction of market power and       increasing returns to scale\ninto the international trade theory. The        enormous political\nimplications of this hypothesis have started a           large\ninterest in applied or empirical investigations of this\nissue.    However, econometric work in international trade is\ncomparatively scarce,   especially if it comes to testing with\nindividual data. Therefore, this     volume is considered to be\na contribution to fill that gap. The volume      consists of\nthree parts: First, issues in strategic trade are               discussed\nby means of a survey on recent contributions of the\nliteratureand by a simulation excercise on optimal trade\npolicy for imperfectly       competitive industries. Second, a\npart investigating the determinants of    trade flows studies\nthe interrelationships between trade balances and       exchange\nrates, plant size and international trade, and the revelance\noffirm size and market concentration for the degree of\nexport market          integration using business survey firm data.\nThird, there are studies on    imperfect markets, innovations\nand learning which demonstrate the importanceof imperfect\ncompetition for international economics. All                   contributions\nprovide empirical evidence for the revelance of the           newly\ndeveloped trade theories and demonstrate useful                       quantitative\ntechniques for their investigation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2011-12-15\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783642846878\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-642-84685-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 244cm x170cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 189\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44398752923788,"sku":"9783642846878","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783642846878.jpg?v=1777378211","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783642846878","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
