Acá dos posts con un análisis, no de opinión (y letras) si no de análisis económico a toda regla: Some Thoughts on Chinese Tariffs on US Exports: Tariff Incidence, Value Added, Exchange Rates y Is There a Pattern? Trade Sanctions on China.
Algunos estudios (incluyen bibliografía):
- A trade war will increase average tariffs by 32 percentage points. There are growing signs that a trade war is possible, and that the multilateral trading system may not be able to prevent it. This column asks what would happen with tariffs around the world if countries were to move from cooperative tariff setting within the WTO to non-cooperative tariff setting outside the WTO. It argues that that the resulting trade war with countries exploiting their market power would lead to a 32-percentage point increase in the tariff protection faced by the average world exporter.
- The suspense of trade agreements. Preferential trade agreements don’t happen overnight – they require lengthy negotiations. This column examines the effect the process of negotiating an agreement has on trade between the negotiating parties. The results suggest that during prolonged negotiations, the expectation of the agreement, or uncertainty before the signing of the agreement, undermine bilateral trade growth.
