Rural–urban migration and multinational firms

Yabuuchi, Shigemi / Beladi, Hamid

Abstract In this paper, we re-examine the analysis on multinational firms and the theory of international trade and investment in the set-up with urban unemployment. A great majority of the recipient (host) countries are developing economies that are characterized by rural–urban migration in the face of urban unemployment. Thus, they have relatively developed urban sectors and less developed rural sectors. In this context we explore the implications of tariffs and taxes on the urban unemployment rate and national income.
