| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research shows the impacts of market integration on industrial location, resource allocation, income distribution and economic welfare theoretically. The main findings are as follows. (1) In a small open economy, the number of oligopolistic firms who supply intermediate goods locally can be insufficient from the perspective of social efficiency. (2) Market integration in intermediate goods sectors not only causes a one-way shift in the location of manufacturing production toward a developing economy from an advanced economy but also gets back to an advanced economy the production of a certain spectrum of intermediate goods which moved to a developing economy. (3) There is a possibility that trade liberalization has a welfare-reducing effect under consumers’ love-of-variety preferences and variable expenditure shares (i.e., expenditure shares depending on commodity prices).
