Abstract

This study provides a simple, many‐industry model of trade which emphasizes the interaction between cross‐country technical heterogeneity (i.e., a Ricardian aspect) and monopolistic competition among producers of differentiated products (i.e., a Chamberlinian aspect) as determinants of trade patterns. It is shown that the emergence of intra‐industry trade is crucially dependent on the shape of the technology index schedule, which is obtained as a step‐function.
