Deregulation And Trade Liberalization: The Indonesian Experience, Scott Fausti, Rony Bishry Sep 1992

Deregulation And Trade Liberalization: The Indonesian Experience, Scott Fausti, Rony Bishry

Economics Staff Paper Series

From 1950 to 1965, Indonesia followed an import substitution industrialization development strategy. From 1966 to the present, Indonesia has moved toward an export oriented development strategy. This paper tests the predictions of the Heckscher-Ohlin-Samuelson(HOS) model of international trade by comparing Indonesia's economic performance under two contrasting development strategies. The paper concludes that Indonesia• s economic performance under the opposing development strategies supports the predictions of the HOS model. Furthermore, the Indonesian experience under the two development strategies supports the "trade as an engine of growth" hypothesis.


The Effect Of Uncertainty On A Joint Product Model Of Smuggling, Scott Fausti Sep 1992

The Effect Of Uncertainty On A Joint Product Model Of Smuggling, Scott Fausti

Economics Staff Paper Series

Extending the seminal work of Bhagwati and Hansen (1973) on smuggling, Pitt (1981) developed a new approach to investigate the welfare effect of smuggling. This paper develops an extension of Pitt's original model which allows many of the interesting features of the Bhagwati and Hansen model to be revaluated within a joint product model of smuggling framework. The extension is made through the following modifications to Pitt's assumptions: 1) firms that export are free to engage in joint product smuggling or strictly legal trade; and 2) uncertainty is introduced into the model via active government enforcement. The modifications enable the …

The Empirical Issue Of Smuggling: A Discussion Of Methodology, Scott Fausti Feb 1992

The Empirical Issue Of Smuggling: A Discussion Of Methodology, Scott Fausti

Economics Staff Paper Series

The theoretical results attained from the literature on Illegal Transactions in International Trade suggest: 1) a positive link between the duty levied and the level of smuggling effort; 2) a nonnegative domestic relative price effect; and 3) an ambiguous social welfare effect. The theoretical results predict the generation of some type of distortion. The literature labels these distortions "disparities" and divides them into three categories: price, value, and quantity. These distortions represent the empirically measurable effects of smuggling on the domestic economy. This paper makes the proposition that the "price disparity" distortion is the variable that empirical studies should examine …
