摘要: This study focuses on the impact of preference diversity and relative country size intra-industry trade (IIT) in an industry with a vertically differentiated product. By adopting two-stage game model, we find that IIT share is higher between countries similar for quality index asymmetric depending exports imports country. The results model can be empirically tested, since are related to per capita income population, respectively.
