| Abstract: | Konings and Vandenbussche (1995) investigated the effects of foreign competition on wages and employment in the United Kingdom. Using a firm level panel data, they searched for wage effects, noting that Stolper-Samuelson effects should result in a negative impact on wages, whilst modern trade theory suggests a positive effect. In fact they found both - a positive effect for their full sample and negative effect when they restricted themselves to the manufacturing sector. |
