- Domestic Institutions as a Source of Comparative Advantage (2013, unknown): “Tang then estimates sector-level gravity equations for 84 countries using the Helpman et al. (2008) framework, and provides evidence that countries with institutions that protect labor have a comparative advantage in goods that are intensive in firm-specific skills.”
- Why are different services outsourced to different countries? (2011, methodology): “Our empirical analysis is motivated by recent theoretical studies (e.g., Antràs & Helpman, 2008; Grossman & Helpman, 2005) that incorporate transaction cost economics (Williamson, 1979) in models of outsourcing location choice.”
- Outsourcing versus integration at home or abroad and firm heterogeneity (2010, unknown): “Several theoretical models, at the crossroads of industrial organization and international trade, have been developed (Antràs 2003, 2005, Antràs and Helpman 2004, Grossman and Helpman 2004, Antràs and Helpman 2008).”
- Trade Intermediation and the Organization of Exporters (2011, unknown): “Similarly, product specificity is statistically negatively correlated with the relative prevalence of trade intermediaries; see columns (2), (3), (4), (9), and (10).”
- Global Sourcing of Complex Production Processes (2014, background): “Other cases include Nike, which relies heavily on foreign outsourcing, or Intel which mainly engages in vertical foreign direct investment (FDI), see Antràs and Rossi-Hansberg (2009). 2In this terminology, the making of the doors for the Golf VI is a more complex production process than for the Ford”
- Determinants of Global Value Chain Participation: Cross-Country Evidence (2020, unknown): “…and 2 For theoretical models on GVCs and international production fragmentation, please refer to Feenstra and Hanson (1997), Feenstra (1998), Antràs and Helpman (2004; 2008), Romalis (2004), Nunn (2007), Chor (2010), Johnson and Noguera (2012), Antràs (2016), and Antràs and De Gortari…”
- Organizing the Global Value Chain (2012, unknown): “21 (For a detailed discussion of this adjustment, please see Antràs et al. (2012).) We supplement our analysis with a second measure of downstreamness, , which seeks to make fuller use of the information on indirect input use further upstream.”
- The Empirics of Firm Heterogeneity and International Trade (2012, unknown): “Using data on trade between 158 countries from 1970-97, Helpman et al. (2008) nd that around one half of the country pairs do not trade with one another.”
