  • Knowledge-Bearing Elites and Industrial Performance in France and Germany by J
    Program for the Study of Germany and Europe Working Paper Series '4.5 Knowledge-Bearing Elites and Industrial Performance in France and Germany by J. Nicholas Ziegler M IT Sloan School of Management E52-581 Cambridge MA 02139 revised December 1993 Abstract Most comparative studies of public policies for competitiveness focus on the links among public agencies and industrial sectors. This paper argues that the professions---or knowledge-bearing elites-that animate these organizational links are equally significant. For public policies to promote technological advance, the visions and self-images of knowledge-bearing elites are par­ ticularly important. By examining administrative and technical elites in France and Germany in the 1980s, the paper identifies characteristics that enable these elites to implement policy in some cases, but not in others. France's "state-created" elites were well-positioned to initiate and implement large technology projects, such as digitizing the telecommunications network. Germany's state-recognized elites were, by contrast, better positioned to facilitate framework­ oriented programs that aimed at the diffusion of new technologies throughout industry. The linkages among administrative and technical elites also explain why French policymakers had difficulty adapting policy to changing circumstances over time while German policymakers managed in many cases to learn more from previous policy experiences and to adapt subse­ quent initiatives accordingly. 1 Knowledge-Bearing Elites and Industrial Performance

  • We, the Undersigned Economists, Represent a Broad Variety of Areas of Expertise and Are United in Our Opposition to Donald Trump
    We, the undersigned economists, represent a broad variety of areas of expertise and are united in our opposition to Donald Trump. We recommend that voters choose a different candidate on the following grounds: . He degrades trust in vital public institutions that collect and disseminate information about the economy, such as the Bureau of Labor Statistics, by spreading disinformation about the integrity of their work. He has misled voters in states like Ohio and Michigan by asserting that the renegotiation of NAFTA or the imposition of tariffs on China would substantially increase employment in manufacturing. In fact, manufacturing’s share of employment has been declining since the 1970s and is mostly related to automation, not trade. He claims to champion former manufacturing workers, but has no plan to assist their transition to well-compensated service sector positions. Instead, he has diverted the policy discussion to options that ignore both the reality of technological progress and the benefits of international trade. He has misled the public by asserting that U.S. manufacturing has declined. The location and product composition of manufacturing has changed, but the level of output has more than doubled in the U.S. since the 1980s. He has falsely suggested that trade is zero-sum and that the “toughness” of negotiators primarily drives trade deficits. He has misled the public with false statements about trade agreements eroding national income and wealth. Although the gains have not been equally distributed—and this is an important discussion in itself—both mean income and mean wealth have risen substantially in the U.S.

Building his case on the gains from trade to be had from specialization reflecting the divi- sion of labor, Smith had the essence of the argument right. But it was left to David Ricardo (building on James Mill) to clinch the case formally. Ricardo used a stripped-down model— only one factor of production with constant productivity of 1 Commerce and Government is now available in a splendid translation by the historian Shelagh Eltis.

Documento de Investigación Working Paper 2018-01 2018-01 Labor Heterogeneity and the Pattern of Trade* Alfonso Cebrerosy Banco de México Abstract: This article combines data on trade flows with a novel construction of the distribution of skill in the population, based on the results from the International Adult Literacy Survey of the OECD, to evaluate the empirical importance of the distribution of talent as a determinant of the sectoral pattern of trade. It is found that both the mean and standard deviation of the distribution of skills are significant determinants of the pattern of trade. According to the results, cross-country differences in the distribution of skills explain more of the sectoral pattern of trade than differences in capital stocks and differences in indicators of a country's institutional framework.

    HOW NEW IS THE “NEW TRADE THEORY” OF THE PAST TWO DECADES? by Andrea Maneschi Working Paper No. 00-W27 July 2000 DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMICS VANDERBILT UNIVERSITY NASHVILLE, TN 37235 www.vanderbilt.edu/econ How new is the Anew trade theory@ of the past two decades? Andrea Maneschi, Vanderbilt University This paper takes up the theme of this conference, whether there is progress in economics, by examining a paradigm known as the Anew trade theory@ that has been used by international trade theorists over the past two decades. Authors contributing to it include James Brander, Avinash Dixit, Wilfred Ethier, Gene Grossman, Elhanan Helpman, Paul Krugman, Kelvin Lancaster and Barbara Spencer. Mainstream trade theory based on the HeckscherBOhlin model posits assumptions such as constant returns to scale and the associated market structure of perfect competition, which the new trade theorists reject in favor of increasing returns to scale and imperfectly competitive or oligopolistic market structures. They claim that their models mirror more accurately the markets in which most industrial commodities are exchanged, and explain phenomena such as intraindustry trade that the HeckscherBOhlin theory could not account for. Section 1 explores in greater depth the reasons for the birth of this new paradigm some two decades ago. Compared to its mainstream alternative, the new trade theory offers fresh insights into the nature of the gains from trade, and new rationales for trade that often dispense altogether with the notion of comparative advantage. Section 2 examines its antecedents in the history of economic thought which hark back to Adam Smith. Of special relevance are Smith=s productivity theory of trade, according to which productivity rises with specialization induced by the expansion of the market, and the infant industry argument for protection popularized by J.
