我们使用1988年41个国家的贸易流量、生产和贸易壁垒的分类数据来研究非关税壁垒的政治和经济决定因素，以及保护（关税和非关税）对贸易流量的影响。我们使用一个计量经济学框架，可以同时确定贸易壁垒和贸易流量。我们的研究结果与政治经济学理论的保护的决定因素是一致的：即使在会计行业和国家的具体因素，国家往往会保护产业是薄弱的，在下降，政治上重要的，或受到进口竞争的威胁，但提供较少的保护，其中出口是重要的。
We use disaggregated data on trade flows, production, and trade barriers for 41 countries in 1988 to examine the political and economic determinants of nontariff barriers, as well as the impact of protection (both tariff and nontariff) on trade flows. We use an econometric framework that allows for the simultaneous determination of trade barriers and trade flows. Our results are consistent with political-economy theories of the determinants of protection: even after accounting for industry- and country-specific factors, nations tend to protect industries that are weak, in decline, politically important, or threatened by import competition, but provide less protection to industries in which exports are important.
