In combining the analytical traditions of overseas and commercial economics, associated with a pretty certain institutional economics of felony preparations and competences on the EC point, it truly is was hoping to supply the proper instruments to understand the economic Euromarkets.

The essential argument is that a gain in technical efficiency, leading to a cost reduction per unit of production, would remove 'waste' and therefore constitute a gain to society. No netting of producer vs. consumer surpluses would be required, let alone losses of tariff revenues. Consider Fig. , where the home country has rising costs as output increases and an initial tariff tl. Supplies from the rest of the world Sc are at constant 'Costs. Now, assume a tariff decrease to t2. Because of the cold shower of sharply increased foreign competition on the domestic market (the foreigner's y-market share would rise from QR/KR to MN/LN) I assume that technical efficiency of home y-producers improves and that this results in a 27 downward shift of 51 to 52.

22 The common feature of ex-ante studies based on (simple) customs union theory is the smallness of the (net) positive price efficiency effects. In our example the net gain is less than one percent of annual x-consumption in 'Italy'. Johnson (1958) found the order of magnitude of British freer trade with Continental Western Europe in an OEEC wide free trade area to be around 1% of GNP. 06 % of GNP (in industrial trade). Other studies have remained roughly within the range up to 1% of GNP. Given the vigor-ous and sustained economic growth of EC countries at the time, one can hardly accept that improvements of price efficiency of such small magnitudes have constituted important economic arguments for market integration.

This estimate is within the range of the ex-ante studies, despite the different and perhaps less reliable method of calculation of ex-post residual imputation. 3 Improving technical efficiency It will be remembered that technical efficiency is defined as input minimisation at any given output level, given the employment of the best techniques available (23). To suggest that firms are technically inefficient must imply that somehow competition is not perfect, permitting departures from cost minimisation without going bankrupt.
