“…In an earlier study (Erlat and Erlat, 2003) we considered the measurement of intraindustry trade (IIT) for the Turkish manufacturing industry using 3-digit SITC, Rev. 3 data and also focused on the share of intra-industry trade in new trade; namely, marginal intraindustry trade (MIIT).…”

“…Focusing on trade and economic adjustment in Irish chemical sector for three-digit SITC groups, Brulhart (1994) found that MIIT is, first, related to inter-industry trade adjustment and, second, to structural variables. Subsequently, a number of studies attempted to compute MIIT index both for developed (Cabral & Silva, 2006; Cernosa, 2012; Erlat & Erlat, 2003; Ferto, 2009; Lee & Sohn, 2004) and developing countries (Brulhart & Thorpe, 2000; Oliveras & Terra, 1997; Veeramani, 2007).…”

Labour Market Adjustment and Intra-Industry Trade: Empirical Results from Indian Manufacturing Sectors

During the last two decades, India has witnessed several trade and industrial policy reforms. The objective of the study is to examine the relationship between dynamism of India’s two-way trade, measured through Marginal Intra-Industry Trade (MIIT) index, and labour market adjustments, reflected through absolute employment changes, in select manufacturing sectors over 2001–2015. India’s MIIT in select sectors generally display an upward trend over the sample period, while a mixed dynamics is observed on the employment front. The generalized method of moments (GMM) estimation results indicate that MIIT, increase in productivity, skilled workforce intensity, industrial concentration, incremental FDI inflows and trade openness positively influence absolute employment changes, whereas unskilled wage exerts a negative impact on the same. The analysis further concludes that high relative growth rate, skill-intensity, incremental FDI inflows and higher productivity in a sector, also characterized by higher MIIT, may lead the firms to employ more productive and competitive resources, resulting in higher absolute changes in employment. The obtained results do not support the Smooth Adjustment Hypothesis (SAH) predictions in the Indian context.

“…The difficulty for applied economists attempting to estimate the economic significance is how to measure adjustment costs. Most proxies of adjustment cost rely on measures of factor reallocation, usually labour and include Greenaway et al (2002), Brülhart and Elliott (2002), Haynes et al (2002), Erlat and Erlat (2003), Elliott and Lindley (2006), Brülhart et al (2006), Cabral and Silva (2006), and Ferto (2008).…”

In this paper we contribute to the literature on the measurement of international trade flows. Specifically, we combine changes in the volume and quality in matched trade changes to present a simple new index together with a geometric framework that can be used to visualise changes in quality and volume simultaneously. We illustrate the usefulness of our simple extension with data for trade between Malaysia and China between 1994 and 2004.
