Firms in International Trade: Importers and Exporters Heterogeneity in the Italian Manufacturing Industry (2008, positive): “However, some recent investigations conclude that learning by exporting may also occur under specific circumstances (Van Biesebroeck (2006); Isgut and Fernandes (2007); Lileeva and Trefler (2007); Serti and Tomasi (2007)).”
Non-tariff barriers, integration and the transatlantic economy (2015, methodology): “Starting especially with Trefler (2004) and applying firm-level data, these papers have examined the effect of integration with the United States on Canada (e.g. Baggs, 2005; Baggs and Brander, 2006; LaRochelle-Côté, 2007; Lileeva, 2008; Breinlich and Cuñat, 2010; Lileeva and Trefler, 2010).”
Detecting Learning by Exporting (2013, methodology): “These channels are not mutually exclusive, and one can rely on various methods to control for a potential self-selection effect, by either matching on observables, as in De Loecker (2007), or by relying on firm-specific trade liberalization variables as suggested by Lileeva and Trefler (2010).”
Roads, exports and employment: Evidence from a developing country (2017, background): “Lileeeva and Trefler (2010) investigate how exporting affected Canadian plants' labor productivity and innovation between 1988 and 1996 by using plantspecific tariff cuts faced in the United States as an instrument for selling abroad.”
The dynamics of trade and innovation: a joint approach (2009, background): “Lileeva and Trefler (2007) have introduced an interesting aspect in this debate between exporting, innovation and productivity.”
Firms’ exporting and importing activities: is there a two-way relationship? (2012, background): “…while only a few papers convincingly show evidence that exporting activity spurs product innovation (also in the form of improved product quality) or process innovation (also through the adoption of newer technologies) (Lileeva and Trefler 2010; Salomon and Shaver 2005; Bratti and Felice 2011).”
Structural Estimation and Solution of International Trade Models with Heterogeneous Firms (2011, background): “5 A growing number of studies highlight the complementary roles of export and technical investment, for example Lileeva and Trefler (2010). Export market access often induces active investment by firms in productivity growth.”
The Impact of Trade Liberalization on Firm Productivity and Innovation (2018, neutral): “2010; Lileeva and Trefler 2010; Topalova and Khandelwal 2011; Iacovone 2012; Halp‑ ern et al.”
Exporting and innovating among emerging market firms: The moderating role of institutional development (2017, background): “…institutional development; innovation; emerging economies; China INTRODUCTION Exporting provides firms an opportunity to access knowledge from elsewhere, which can serve as an effective means of organizational learning (Bratti & Felice, 2012; Lileeva & Trefler, 2010; Salomon & Jin, 2010).”
