We examine the effects of trade liberalization in China on evolution markups and productivity manufacturing firms. Although these dimensions performance cannot be separately identified when firm output is measured by revenue, detailed price deflators make it possible to estimate average effect tariff reductions both. Several novel findings emerge. First, cuts tariffs reduce markups, but raise productivity. Second, pro-competitive are most important among incumbents, while efficiency gains...
How does rural-urban migration shape urban production in developing countries? We use longitudinal data on Chinese manufacturing firms between 2000 and 2006, exploit exogenous variation induced by agricultural income shocks for identification. find that, when immigration increases, becomes more labor intensive productivity declines. investigate the reorganization of using patent applications product information. show that induces both labor-oriented technological change adoption varieties....
Using a firm-level data set for 1998 and 2005 including all of China's ‘above designated size’ enterprises that together account more than 85% industrial output, this paper investigates three issues. One key issue in system is the extent to which growth has been driven by productivity change. A second relative performance different ownership types, comparison state-owned versus various forms non-state ownership. The third whether across regions–coast, northeast, central, west–exhibits...
This paper studies the pattern of interregional investment after bureaucratic transfers across Chinese cities. Using administrative records business registration, we find that transfer a local leader between prefecture cities is associated with about 3% increase in along direction transfer. The comoving firms purchase larger parcels land and at lower prices. They also exhibit higher likelihood exiting when patrons leave office. Comoving does not probability promotion for transferred leaders,...
This article studies how real exchange rate movements affect firm export behavior, using monthly data that cover the universe of Chinese transactions over period 2000–2006. Specifically, we examine effects on an exporter's extensive (entry, exit, and product churning) intensive margins exports. We find significant margin. A 10% appreciation renminbi is associated with a 1 percentage point decline in probability entry, 0.2 increase exit. The among foreign-invested enterprises almost double...
Abstract This paper augments the model of Andreoni and Levinson by analyzing effect income distribution on inverted U‐shaped relationship between some forms pollution income, so‐called ‘environmental Kuznets curve’. In a context in which abatement technology shows increasing returns to scale an inverse pollution–income path is present, this study demonstrates existence majority voting equilibrium, concludes that median environmental degradation rather than per capita degradation. Our results...
