• TITLE: Trade Openness and Democracy: The Case of Gabon

  AUTHORS: Assoumou Ondo

  KEYWORDS: Trade Openness, Democracy, Nonlinear Relation

  JOURNAL NAME: Modern Economy, Vol.8 No.2, February 9, 2017

  ABSTRACT: This article analyzes the relation between trade openness and democracy in Gabon. Unlike traditional approaches based on the estimation of linear gravity models, we first estimate a nonlinear model characterizing the relation between democracy and trade openness. We then determine an optimal threshold beyond which democracy has a positive effect on trade openness in Gabon.
