1.11 — New Trade Theory I — Readings

Thursday, September 17, 2020

Recommended Readings:

• Chapter 6.4 in Feenstra & Taylor

We will cover 6.1-6.2 next class.

I also strongly suggest you consume Paul Krugman’s 2008 Economics Nobel Prize address in some format. There is a video, his slides, and his written lecture posted there. I will be drawing from some of that today.

Primary Sources Mentioned:

• Krugman (1980), “Scale Economies, Product Differentiation, and Pattern of Trade”
