Focusing on the application of general equilibrium theory, this collection explores significant issues in international trade and migration. It examines the impact of EU enlargement on Western member states, analyzes the trade effects of WTO membership, and provides a theoretical and econometric assessment of immigration's economic implications in Germany post-2004. Additionally, it addresses the distributional effects of offshoring, offering insights into how these economic dynamics shape policy and contribute to understanding global trade relationships.

We revisit Grossman and Rossi-Hansberg's (2008) famous result, that under certain conditions offshoring of low-skilled labor tasks raises the domestic wage for low-skilled workers. Our re-examination features a less benign environment where Rybczynski-type reallocation of factors to absorb offshoring-induced job displacement is ruled out. We allow for simultaneous offshoring of both skilled and unskilled labor, and we derive new results on the role of factor-bias in offshoring, identifying conditions under which offshoring has a "lifiting-all-boats" effect benefitting all workers. Extending our analysis to a frictional labor market with equilibrium unemployment due to costly matching, we demonstrate that under these same conditions offshoring is also associated with rising employment.
