Úå 1.2 Úå.ÚÚå Úå.ÚÚå Newton s law of universal gravitation Gravity Model: Basic gravity models state that economic interactions between two geographically defined entities are proportional to the size of these entities and inversely related to the distance between them. They have great empirical explanatory power.

10 1. Úå 1.3 Anderson and van Wincoop(2003) Anderson and van Wincoop(2003)Ÿ Ú z Gravity equations have been widely used to infer trade flow effects of various institutional arrangements. We show that estimated gravity equations do not have a theoretical foundation. This implies both that estimation suffers from omitted variables bias and that comparative statics analysis is unfounded. We develop a method that (i) consistently and efficiently estimates a theoretical gravity equation and (ii) correctly calculates the comparative statics of trade frictions. We apply the method to solve the famous McCallum border puzzle. Applying our method, we find that national borders reduce trade between industrialized countries by moderate amounts of percent. % (E ŒÆ²LÆ) êþ²læ 18ù 10 / 15
