“…Country level studies are critical to understand the impact of language on FDI. However, these studies have been rare in IB literature with the exceptions of Hejazi and Ma (2011);Oh, Selmier, and Lien (2011);. Although the literature has expanded our understanding of language influence on FDI, it has not, however, addressed the mechanisms through which language exerts its influence or the source countries' income level impact on language demand.…”

“…Empirical analyses focused on several factors influencing trade, such as borders (McCallum (1995); Wei (1996); Anderson-van Wincoop (2001); Mayer-Zignago (2005)), factor endowment (Rahman (2003); Schumacher (2003); Sohn (2005) ;Eicher et al (2012); Shirotori et al (2010)), common language and colonial linkages (Hutschinson (2002); Head et al (2010); Oh et al (2011);Felbermayr-Toubal (2006); Martinez-Zarzoso (2003)); institutions and corruption (AndersonMarcouiller (2002);de Groot et al (2004)); free trade agreements and regional integrations ((Martinez-Zarzoso (2003); Baier-Bergstrand (2007); Carrere (2006); Soloaga-Winters (2001) ;Jugurnath et al (2007); Coulibaly (2009) ;Anderson-Yotov (2011); Rose-van Wincoop (2001); Vicard (2009) ;Frankel-Wei (1998)). …”

The end of the Communist regime brought about great changes in the economies of Central and Eastern Europe; the restructuring of foreign trade was one of the biggest challenges for these countries. After the transition period, Hungary has become a very open country with its trade to GDP ratio around 1.5, while trading with more than 190 countries in 2014. The central aim of this paper is to analyze the determinants of exports for this small Central European country in the period of 1993-2014, with an emphasis on the impact of factor endowments. According to our results, economic size, common border and free trade agreements have a statistically significant positive effect on the exports of Hungary, while the coefficient of distance has the expected negative sign. We measured factor endowments with several approaches and our results show that exports of Hungary correspond to the Linder hypothesis, i.e. Hungary tends to trade more with countries having similar factor endowments, and thus its trade is based on differentiated products.

“…The key words noted in the results represent important areas of study in the field of international trade. In recent years, as international trade and investment barriers have been removed much research has been conducted on the impact of FDI on international trade (Oh et al 2011;Chakraborty and Mukherjee 2013;Kandogan 2014). The issue of international trade's effect on CO2 emissions has also been a growing aspect of research.…”

This study utilizes the social network analysis technique to analyze and better understand the semantic and knowledge networks that are associated with the field of international trade and more specifically international free trade agreements. This study builds on the research that currently exists in the field of international trade negotiation by using the SNA technique to construct, visualize, and investigate the International Trade networked knowledge infrastructure by analyzing 3074 publications, 1054 journal sources, 4047 authors, 1516 organizations, 87 countries and keywords associated with this field of research. The network and ego level properties-such as, degree centralities, density, components, structural holes, and degree distribution-suggest that the international trade co-authorship network analyzed is relatively fragmented. The knowledge and sematic networks exhibit power law distribution in which the incoming nodes and links prefer to attach to the nodes that are already well connected. The study also sheds light on the emerging and fading themes in the domain.
