To do this, we develop a two‐country model involving a backward economy that exchanges intermediate goods with a faster growing country. We obtain three main results regarding growth and welfare of the backward economy: (i) the growth‐enhancing comparative advantage is facilitated by faster foreign growth; (ii) the growth rate may be negatively affected or unaffected by a domestic tariff, while it is always positively impacted by foreign growth; and (iii) a domestic tariff could be welfare‐improving.Wiley2019202020182019info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion23 p.application/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://hdl.handle.net/2445/136258Articles publicats en revistes (Economia)reponame:Recercat.
