According to the new view, a government can take strategic steps to raise its income at another country's expense-by subsidizing exports or erecting trade barriers, protecting certain firms from foreign competition, or promoting the development of new industries. This volume looks at the experience of specific industries in order to determine the effectiveness of strategic trade policy in promoting economic growth. The nine papers cover the U.S. and European auto industries, the U.S. steel industry, the commercial aircraft industry, airline deregulation in Scandinavia, and labor and industrial policy in Korea and Taiwan. The authors refine the basic techniques for measuring policy effectiveness, extend them to encompass industry dynamics, and test the implications of new trade models. International economists and trade experts in government and business will find important new insights into the role of strategic trade policy in international competitiveness. 410 0$aNational Bureau of Economic Research project report. 606 $aCommercial policy$vCase studies 606 $aIndustrial policy$vCase studies 606 $aInternational trade$vCase studies 615 0$aCommercial policy 615 0$aIndustrial policy 615 0$aInternational trade 676 $a382/.3 701 $aKrugman$b Paul R$0118463 701 $aSmith$b Alasdair$0229068 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813646903321 996 $aEmpirical studies of strategic trade policy$94082667 997 $aUNINA
