Applied International Trade

By Jean-Marie Viaene and Abraham Hollander

Book Overview

This thoroughly revised second edition of Applied International Trade
presents the leading theoretical and applied methods used in the field

investigation. The book also draws out and highlights the theoretical
and policy implications that arise from empirical findings.

trade, and the basis and structure of multinational production

movements, including labor migration
