The WTO Government Procurement Agreement and Its Impacts on Trade

Whalley, John; Chen, Hejing - National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) - 2011

This paper assesses the impacts of the WTO Government Procurement Agreement (GPA) on trade in both goods and services among members using a gravity model applied to a panel dataset covering 20 OECD countries over the period 1996-2008 for trade in goods and 1999-2008 for trade in services. The...

Cutting CO2 Emissions: The Effects of Alternative Policy Approaches

Whalley, John; Wigle, Randall - In: The Energy Journal Volume 12 (1991) Number 1, pp. 109-124

This paper starts from the premise that attempts to curtail global emissions of greenhouse gases are likely to be made in the next few decades. We discuss some of the possible international effects which could result from attempts to achieve such a cutback, and illustrate a methodology which we...

China's potential future growth and gains from trade policy bargaining: Some numerical simulation results

Li, Chunding; Whalley, John - In: Economic Modelling 37 (2014) C, pp. 65-78

Numerical simulation analysis of bargaining solutions is little developed in existing literature. In this paper, we use a numerical general equilibrium model which captures China and her major trading partners and examine the outcomes of trade policy bargaining solutions (bargaining over tariffs...

Short and long run decompositions of OECD wage in[e]quality changes

Edwards, T. Huw; Whalley, John - 2002

This paper focuses on the causes of increased wage inequality in OECD countries in recent years and its decomposition into the component factors of trade surges in low wage products and technological change that has preoccupied the trade and wages literature. It argues that the length of...
