Firm Heterogeneity, Jobs, and International Trade: Evidence from Chile

James Levinsohn

NBER Working Paper No. 5808*
Issued in October 1996
NBER Program(s):   ITI

This paper is about jobs and international trade. It is about what researchers can learn of the relationship between the two using firm-level data. It is about the particular experience of Chile following a broad trade liberalization and spanning significant macroeconomic contraction and expansion. Finally, this paper is about discerning patterns in the data that might later influence how international economists model the interaction between international trade and employment.
