...Gasiorek, Smith and Venables (1991, 1992), Baldwin, Forslid and Haaland (1996), Allen, Gasiorek and Smith (1998), Keuschnigg and Kohler (1996), Baldwin, Francois and Portes (1997). 4 Baldwin, Francois and Portes (1997) also use a model with a complete input-output structure. Their model, however, treats EU 15 as one region. 5 It might be argued that private services should be modelled as traded goods. We do not, however, have a complete matrix of intra-European trade for this sector. Still, studies of the services sector in Europe find that trade in services is relatively limited, in the sense that trade constitutes a small share of total supply of services (see EFTA (1994))....

...Sectors are linked via demand for intermediate inputs, which creates agglomeration forces à la Venables (1996) and Krugman and Venables (1995). In the simulation model there are both intra- and inter-industry linkages creating agglomeration forces not only within sectors but also between different kinds of economic activity....

...As argued in the modern trade literature and integration theory, trade triggers important supply side effects (Grossman and Helpman, 1991; Balassa, 1961; Baldwin, 1993; Breuss, 1996; Keuschnigg and Kohler, 1996), which induce efficiency improvements in the enterprise sector and finally lead to additional growth....

...Prior to their abolition in the SMP, the costs of such measures in the EU and EFTA were estimated to be equivalent to approximately 2% of transaction values(Hine, 1994; Keuschnigg and Kohler, 1996)....

...The long-run impact of withdrawal on UK GDP is comparable to the estimate of a gain of 2.6% in GDP made by Keuschnigg and Kohler(1996) in their analysis of the impact on the Austrian economy of entry into the EU, and the gain of 2% of GDP in the estimates of the impact of the recent Bilateral…...

...In Keuschnigg et al. (2001) we have found that scaling down the Armington trade elasticities by a factor of 0.8 reduces the aggregate welfare gains by a fourth.20 Of course, an increase in these elasticities would yield a considerably more positive picture, see also Keuschnigg and Kohler (1996b)....
