- Zeros, Quality and Space: Trade Theory and Trade Evidence (2007, background): “12 In Melitz’ original model with symmetric countries, the additional assumption of the Pareto distribution for marginal cost makes it possible to obtain analytical solutions for all the endogenous variables, including wages and per-firm demands (Baldwin (2005)).”
- Trade, FDI, and the Organization of Firms (2006, background): “Richard E. Baldwin (2005) provides an alternative discussion of this model.”
- Euros and Zeros: The Common Currency Effect on Trade in New Goods (2006, unknown): “Starting with Nitsch (2002), an extensive literature has criticized many aspects of Rose’s methodology; the current ‘received wisdom’ seem to be that the trade effect on the worldwide dataset is small and possibly insignificant (see Baldwin 2005 for a survey).”
- Study on the Impact of the Euro on Trade and Foreign Direct Investment (2008, unknown): “The second main channel – first posited by Baldwin and Taglioni (2004) and elaborated in Baldwin (2005, 2006) – is the newly-trade goods channel.”
- Skill Biased Heterogeneous Firms, Trade Liberalization, and the Skill Premium (2015, unknown): “In addition, the firm-level skill share varies both within industries and across industries, but the within variation is much larger: between 4-digit ISIC indus- 0 .2 .4 .6 .8 1 W hi te -c ol la r w ag e bi ll sh ar e Log revenue Median values indicated by straight lines Non−exporting plants 0 .2 .4”
- Structural gravity equations with intensive and extensive margins (2010, unknown): “As in Baldwin and Okubo (2006), we consider that firms in country i differ in terms of their marginal cost; a is supposed to follows a Pareto distribution, bounded between 0 and 1, with a scaling parameter γ ≥ 1.”
