Exporters and the rise in wage inequality: Evidence from German linked employer–employee data (2013, neutral): “In contrast, in Davis and Harrigan (2007) and Egger and Kreickemeier (2009), the wage differential between firms is not affected in the process of globalization. This is because wages paid to workers depend directly (and exclusively) on the monitoring technology and the productivity of the firm, res”
Recent Findings on Trade and Inequality (2010, neutral): “A related approach is explored by Davis and Harrigan (2007), who adapt a more conventional efficiency-wage theory to the Melitz model.”
Higher wages in exporting firms: self-selection, export effect, or both? First evidence from linked employer-employee data (2010, background): “The recent literature on exporting by heterogeneous firms, pioneered by Melitz (2003) and surveyed by Greenaway and Kneller (2007), argues that only the more productive firms in an industry can bear the extra costs of entering foreign markets.”
The Empirics of Firm Heterogeneity and International Trade (2012, background): “Another source of labor market imperfections is e ciency or fair wages, where the wage that induces e ort or is perceived to be fair varies with revenue across rms (see for example Amiti & Davis 2011, Davis & Harrigan 2011, and Egger & Kreickemeier 2009).”
Trade Liberalization and the Wage Skill Premium: Evidence from Indonesia ☆ (2012, background): “See, for example, Helpman, Itskhoki and Redding (2010), Davis and Harrigan (2011), and Amiti and Davis (2011). skill-intensive inputs for imported inputs, expanding their less-skill intensive production stages, the relative demand for skilled workers would fall within those importing firms and the…”
Domestic Institutions as a Source of Comparative Advantage (2013, neutral): “…implicit contracts (Matusz, 1986), efficiency wages (Copeland 1989 and Matusz 1996 in Heckscher-Ohlin and Ricardian settings, respectively, and Davis and Harrigan 2011 in a heterogeneous-firms setting), fair wages (Agell and Lundborg 1995, Kreickemeier and Nelson 2006, and Egger and…”
Matching and Inequality in the World Economy (2010, neutral): “…and inequality in monopolistically competitive environments with ex ante homogeneous workers, heterogeneous firms, and labor market imperfections (see, e.g., Davis and Harrigan 2007; Amiti and Davis 2008; Sethupathy 2008; Egger and Kreickemeier 2009; Helpman, Itskhoki, and Redding, forthcoming).”
Inequality and Unemployment in a Global Economy (2009, neutral): “Given constant aggregate income (Ω) and a lower value of A, CES demand (28) implies that the opening of trade reduces the price index for the differentiated sector (P ), which implies higher expected welfare in the open than in the closed economy.”
Skill Biased Heterogeneous Firms, Trade Liberalization, and the Skill Premium (2015, positive): “17 The theory of copulas was first used in international trade theory by Davis and Harrigan (2011), also to accommodate two dimensions of heterogeneity in a Melitz-type model.”
