We use 1996 data on trade bar-riers for 20 categories of clothing products and 22 exporters. The estimation of a standard gravity equationconcludes that tariffs have a large and negative impact as expected but seldom corroborated in the litera-ture. The negative impact of non-tariff barriers also appears clearly after controlling for an endogeneity biasby the instrumental variables method. The phasing-out of quotas should increase EU imports by 20%.}, organization = {CentrA}, publisher = {Wiley Online Library}, keywords = {Multi-Fiber Agreement}, keywords = {Clothing imports}, keywords = {Quotas}, title = {Quotas on Clothing Imports: Impact and Determinants of EU Trade Policy}, doi = {10.1111/j.1467-9396.2005.00516.x}, author = {Milgram Baleix, Juliette}, }
