Trade Integration and Trade Imbalances in the European Union: A Network Perspective
We study the ever more integrated and ever more unbalanced trade relationships between European countries. To better capture the complexity of economic networks, we propose two global measures that assess the trade integration and the trade imbalances of the European countries. These measures are the network (or indirect) counterparts to traditional (or direct) measures such as the trade-to-GDP...

We show that trade imbalances in absolute value are characterized by a hierarchical arrangement wherein few rich economies display high clustering and carry an important amount of global-trade imbalances. In contrast, trade imbalances in relative terms show a more fragmented topology, wit...
متن کاملEuropean Integration and the Gains from Trade
This chapter discusses whether and how 'new quantitative trade models' (NQTMs) can be fruitfully applied to quantify the welfare effects of trade liberalization, thus shedding light on the trade-related effects of further European integration. On the one hand, it argues that NQTMs have indeed the potential of being used to supplement traditional ‘computable general equilibrium’ (CGE) analysis t...
متن کاملAsymmetric Trade Costs, Trade Imbalances, and the World Income Distribution
Earlier work by Waugh (2010) suggests that asymmetric market access costs across exporting countries are a major reason for differences in real per-capita income around the globe: 25% − 50% (depending on the measure) of world income inequality could be explained by cross-country trade cost asymmetries alone. We show that these results were driven by what we call model under-specification, an il...
