contents Foreign trade barriers and jobs in global supply chains Stefan Kühn Christian Viegelahn This article uses ILO global supply chain job estimates to study the impact on domestic jobs of foreign barriers to trade in goods and services. Empirical analysis largely confirms predictions derived from a theoretical model calibrated to WIOD data for 2000 and 2011. Barriers to trade in manufacturing and services are both found to have a cross-border impact on jobs in their own sector and spill-over effects in other sectors, the latter becoming stronger over time. This article shows the labour market consequences of the increased interconnectedness of countries and sectors through global supply chains, which suggests that trade policy can have significant external effects on foreign labour markets. 10.1111/ilr.12132 DOI https://doi.org/10.1111/ilr.12132 publication.journalArticle
