Trade and Heterogeneous Labor

资 源 简 介

We show in the context of a new economic geography model that when
labor is heterogenous trade liberalization may lead to industrial agglomeration
and inter-regional trade. Labor heterogeneity gives local monopoly
power to firms but also introduces variations in the quality of the job match.
Matches are likely to be better when there are more firms and workers in
the local market, giving rise to an agglomeration force which can offset the
forces against, trade costs and the erosion of monopoly power. We derive
analytically a robust agglomeration equilibrium and illustrate its properties
with numerical simulations
