Trade and Growth: Reconciling the Macroeconomic and Microeconomic Evidence
重新审视贸易、增长与贸易政策的文献，认为企业层面数据中出口企业生产率高于非出口企业且差异在出口前已存在的发现，与出口促进生产率和经济增长的传统观点并不矛盾。
Abstract. Many empirical studies based on plant‐level data have found that firms that enter the export markets are more productive than non‐exporters and that this difference in productivity is achieved before firms become involved in exporting. These findings have challenged the traditional view that openness to trade increases productivity and economic growth. This article reconsiders the literature on trade, growth, and trade policies and argues that a careful examination of these new findings is consistent with the idea that exporting increases productivity and economic growth.
