Trade, Development and Political Economy presents
When Tariffs Disrupt
Global Supply Chains
Authors: Gene M. Grossman
(Princeton University) and Elhanan Helpman (Harvard University)
Grossman and Helpman study
unanticipated tariff on imports of intermediate goods in a setting with
firm-to-firm supply relationships. Specifically, they study a setting where
global supply chains are formed in anticipation of free trade, and, once they
are in place, the home government surprises with an input tariff.
