R&D, product innovation, and exporting: evidence from UK new technology based firms (2011, unknown): “…the possibility of the reverse effect in an endogenous growth framework (Grossman and Helpman, 1991a; 1991b) or which deal with industry dynamics involving heterogeneous firms (Melitz, 2003), theorists have predicted a positive association between innovation and exporting at the macro level.”
The Effect of WTO on the Extensive and the Intensive Margins of Trade (2013, unknown): “Sun et al. (2011) conclude that the Pareto distribution with unbounded productivities is a poor fit for the distribution of Chinese firms.”
Product and Process Productivity: Implications for quality choice and conditional exporter premia (2013, unknown): “The most common one is a model that combines productivity differences à la Melitz (2003) with heterogeneous fixed or sunk export costs (Das et al. 2007, Eaton et al. 2008, Ruhl 2008, Armenter and Koren 2010).31 Under this framework, a less productive exporter might have the same size as a more…”
Higher wages in exporting firms: self-selection, export effect, or both? First evidence from linked employer-employee data (2010, background): “This empirical finding is in accordance with the recent theoretical literature on exporting by heterogeneous firms (pioneered by Melitz 2003) which postulates 15 In a further regression for stayers, we conditioned on covariates fixed at t = 1 because one could argue that some observables might…”
The Charmed Life of Superstar Exporters: Survey Evidence on Firms and Trade Policy (2017, background): “…the least productive firms lose from trade liberalization (and may even shut down altogether); marginal exporters will lose or gain, on net, very little from trade liberalization; and, at the top end, a group of highly productive exporters reap outsize gains from trade liberalization (Melitz 2003).”
What Happens When Firms Patent? New Evidence from U.S. Economic Census Data (2009, background): “…in, for example, Klette & Kortum, 2004; Bernard, Redding, & Schott, 2006b; Nocke & Yeaple, 2006) in addition to firm productivity (as in, for example, Jovanovic, 1982; Hopenhayn, 1992; Ericson & Pakes, 1995; Melitz, 2003) as the source of heterogeneity across firms when modeling patenting behavior.”
FDI Spillovers and Time Since Foreign Entry (2014, unknown): “…of the intensity of spillover effects, as well as other recent literature that stresses the importance of firm level heterogeneity in analyzing firms (e.g. Melitz, 2003, and Helpman et al., 2004), we allow the time-since-entry pattern to differ according to absorptive capacity and firm size.”
The determinants of export performance: a review of the literature 2006-2014 (2016, background): “Additionally, Melitz (2003) develops a dynamic industry model incorporating firm heterogeneity, and explaining the effects of trade on firm export performance.”
Location Decision of Heterogeneous Multinational Firms (2009, unknown): “…that examines the decision of heterogeneous firms to participate in international markets.1 This literature builds on the pioneering work of Melitz (2003) and Bernard et al. (2003), who introduce firm heterogeneity to the decision to engage in international trade, and is developed further…”
Exporters and the environment (2016, unknown): “Melitz (2003) finds that trade liberalization leads to exit of the least productive establishments due to factor market competition from the expanding exporters.”
Trade Policy Under Firm-Level Heterogeneity in a Small Economy (2009, unknown): “Our paper follows Flam and Helpman (1987) in focusing on trade policy in a small economy with differentiated goods and monopolistic competition, but adds firm-level heterogeneity and endogenous imported variety as in Melitz (2003).”
