The Impact of Chinese Import Penetration on the South African Manufacturing Sector (2015, background): “…firms exit or experience relatively large declines in output in the face of import competition (Bernard, Jensen, & Schott, 2006; Melitz, 2003; Pavcnik, 2002).11 Job losses from rising labour productivity in Equation (6) can therefore in part be attributed to increased competition from…”
The Long and Short of the Canada-U.S. Free Trade Agreement (2001, positive): “When I teach my students about the effects of free trade on productivity I turn to high-quality studies for Chile (Tybout et al. 1991; Pavcnik 2002), Turkey (Levinsohn 1993), Cote d’Ivoire (Harrison 1994), Mexico (Tybout and Westbrook 1995), and India (Krishna and Mitra 1998) among others.”
What Explains Skill Upgrading in Less Developed Countries (2003, background): “First, income inequality between skilled and unskilled workers increased in countries such as Mexico, Chile, and Costa Rica after trade liberalization (Hanson an Harrison (1995, 1999, 1999a), Revenga (1997), Robbins (1995, 1996)). Second, most of the worker reallocation occurred within rather than a”
Firms in International Trade (2007, positive): “In Pavcnik (2002), one-third of the increase in aggregate productivity following the Chilean liberalization was due to within-plant productivity gains, potentially from the reallocation of resources across activities within plants.”
Trade, Regulations, and Growth (2004, background): “Pavcnik (2002) finds that a reshuffling of resources and output to the more efficient producers was largely responsible for aggregate productivity growth in Chile following trade liberalization.”

Heterogeneous effects of economic integration agreements (2018, background): “See Eaton et al. (2011) for a study of French firms, Trefler (2004) for a study of Canada and the United States, and Pavcnik (2002) for a study of Chilean firms.”
Exports and Credit Constraints under Incomplete Information: Theory and Evidence from China (2014, positive): “Thus, the fixed costs of exporting enter the estimating equation through the (negative) coeffi cient on the export indicator variable, but not through the (negative) coeffi cient on the interaction between interest payments and the export indicator We include the error term in (31), which can be dec”
