摘要
Our paper decomposes knowledge-diffusing trade flows and estimates their impacts separately. Overall, trade generates positive knowledge spillovers. For intra-industry trade we find that positive spillovers are dominated by negative competition effects, masking positive spillovers of intra-industry trade through international outsourcing.
