摘要
We propose a decomposition of social welfare when consumers have quasi-linear utility functions under certain conditions satisfied in many models of imperfect competition. Our decomposition is useful especially when we assess the impact of trade liberalization on individual countries. (C) 2004 Published by Elsevier B.V.
