Intra-Industry Trade and International Production in the Italian Manufacturing Sector: A Case for Testing the Theory

Filippo Reganati ()

Economia Internazionale / International Economics, 2002, vol. 55, issue 2, 229-257

Abstract: Taking into consideration the Italian manufacturing sector, the main purpose of this paper is to test some predictions arising from models with monopolistic competitive market. In particular, we want to investigate the two following issues. First, to what extent intra-industry trade and international production are related among each other. Second, to what extent the cross-industry variation of intra-industry trade and intra-industry production ratios is related to similarities in both absolute and relative factor endowments on the one hand, and to local technological conditions on the other.
