To make these features relevant for national welfare, we introduce the notion of the `social footprint' of globalization as the result of suboptimal trade-induced structural transformation in the presence of externalities. For proof of concept, we use simple workhorse models featuring two countries and two industries (only one of which is `strategic') to highlight the role of the `scale elasticity' of the strategic industry and the consequences of the most common assumptions on market structure in quantitative trade analyses.PPN: PPN: 1881523462Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-1-CEPP
