摘要 |
Trade barriers due to transport costs are as
large as those due to tari↵s. This paper
explicitly incorporates the transport sector into the framework of
international oligopoly and studies the e↵ects
of trade and industrial policies. Transport firms need to
commit to a shipping capacity sufficient for a round trip, with a possible
imbalance of shipping volumes in two directions. Because
of this “backhaul problem”, trade restrictions may backfire: domestic import
restrictions may also decrease domestic exports,
possibly harming domestic firms and benefiting foreign firms. In addition, trade
policy in one sector may a↵ect other independent
sectors. |
