本文研究了机械贸易模式的新发展，重点关注北美生产网络的范围和深度。我们特别关注北美与东亚的贸易联系，这种联系在过去二十年中得到了加强。对贸易总额变化和粗放边际贸易增长的考察，都表明北美生产分散化不断扩大，以及与墨西哥联系的加强。我们基于贸易量重力估计和广泛的利润贸易反应的定量分析还提供了证据，表明美国从东亚进口的机械特别强劲，而且墨西哥的角色已经发生了变化，因为它现在为东亚和美国之间的贸易提供了桥梁。机械贸易格局的这些新发展反映了服务环节成本的降低、美墨关系中生产共享的进一步发展以及东亚生产网络竞争力的增强。
This paper investigates new developments in the pattern of machinery trade, with a focus on the extent and depth of production networks in North America. We pay particular attention to North America's trade links with East Asia, which have intensified in the last two decades. Investigation of changes in total trade value and the growth of trade on the extensive margin both demonstrates the expanding fragmentation of production in North America as well as the strengthening of connections with Mexico. Our quantitative analysis, which is based on gravity estimation of trade volume and extensive margin trade responses, also provides evidence that U.S. imports of machinery from East Asia are especially strong, and further, that Mexico's role has changed, as it now provides a bridge for trade between East Asia and the United States. These new developments in the pattern of machinery trade reflect reductions in services link costs, the further evolution of production sharing in the U.S.–Mexico nexus, and the strengthening competitiveness of production networks based in East Asia.
