关税变化带来的成本变动消费者和生产者个承担多少？这个问题很少有人研究，NBER 最新论文考察了这个问题：
Tariff Incidence: Evidence from U.S. Sugar Duties, 1890-1930Douglas A. Irwin

NBER Working Paper No. 20635
Issued in October 2014
NBER Program(s):   DAE   ITI

Direct empirical evidence on whether domestic consumers or foreign exporters bear the burden of a country's import duties is scarce. This paper examines the incidence of U.S. sugar duties using a unique set of high-frequency (weekly, and sometimes daily) data on the landed and the duty-inclusive price of raw sugar in New York City from 1890 to 1930, a time when the United States consumed more than 20 percent of world sugar production and was therefore plausibly a "large" country. The results reveal a striking asymmetry: a tariff reduction is immediately passed through to consumer prices with no impact on the import price, whereas about 40 percent of a tariff increase is passed through to consumer prices and 60 percent borne by foreign exporters. The apparent explanation for the asymmetric response is the asymmetric response of demand: imports collapse upon a tariff increase, but do not surge after a tariff reduction.

关税政策是不是也是一个不错的选题，最近考虑选题的问题，真是郁闷，想研究的被老师们说没有前瞻性，怎么办？

有时候可能是想得太多，而论文读得太少 加油！

的确论文看得不多，方法不对，第一年总是把老师布置的每篇文章都看透，计算公式，谁知道，真是浪费时间，看abstrat和introduction就够了。
