摘要
本地市场效应是指,在一个存在报酬递增和贸易成本的世界中,那些拥有相对较大国内市场需求的国家将成为净出口国。它源自新古典贸易理论解释复杂贸易实践的理论局限和新贸易理论经验证据匮乏的困境,在探寻两种理论范式相对解释力的过程中应运而生,并随着空间经济学的迅猛崛起而成为新经济地理范式(NewEconomic Geography Paradigm)的核心特征之一。本文在回顾本地市场效应的理论背景和基本理论模型的基础上,对其理论模型和经验证据的新近发展作了系统的梳理并进行了简要的评论。
The home market effect refers to the assessment that countries with larger home markets will be a net exporter in a world with increasing returns and trade costs. It arises as a dynamic research topic against the theoretic limitation of the neoclassic trade theory to explain complex trade facts and the difficulty of finding empirical evidence for the new trade theory. It combines the explanatory powers of the two theoretic paradigms and becomes one of the key elements of the new economic geography. After a review of the theoretic background and the basic theoretic model of the home market effect, this paper summaries and discusses the recent developments of its theoretic extensions and empirical research.
