Trade costs and sequentiality of production give rise to complementarities in the co-location of inputs that may explain the remarkable growth in offshoring during hyper-specialisation.
“In sum, trade costs and sequentiality of production give rise to complementarities in the co -location of inputs that may again lead to interesting interdependencies across the offshoring decisions of firms, with the potential to explain the remarkable growth in offshoring during the period of hyper -specialisation (see also Baldwin and Venables, 2013).”

“Much of the focus has been on taking simple characterisations of the technology of unbundling and drawing out the general equilibrium implications for trade and wages (Yi 2003, Grossman and Rossi-Hansberg 2008, Markusen and Venables 2007, Baldwin and Robert-Nicoud 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
