The Trade and FDI Effects of EMU Enlargement (2008, unknown): “Since multilateral resistance terms are not observables, Feenstra (2002) shows that consistent estimates of the model can be obtained by using exporter and importer fixed effects.”
Competitive advantage in the renewable energy industry: Evidence from a gravity model (2019, background): “In their famous «gravity with gravitas» model, Anderson and Van Wincoop (2003) introduced multilateral resistance terms of trade, which can be captured by importer and exporter fixed effects4 (Feenstra 2002, Redding and Venables 2004).”
Effects of Regional Trade Agreements on Trade in Agrifood Products: Evidence from Gravity Modeling Using Disaggregated Data (2008, background): “The GDP can be thought of as capturing the importance of size of the total economy or income as a determinant of trade, and the GDP per capita can be thought of as capturing the effects of the wealth of the economy on trade (Frankel and Wei 1998, Frankel 1997; Gilbert, Scollay, and Bora 2001).
