DESCRIPTION:Anh Nguyen\, Job Market Candidate\n\nTitle: De-localizing the L
 ocal Impacts of Trade through Migration: Evidence from Vietnam\n\nAbstract:
  This paper studies how a labor market's exposure to trade shock can transc
 end its local boundary with the help of pre-existing migration network acro
 ss regions. Leveraging the 2001 U.S-Vietnam Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA)
  I provide a theory\, and devise an empirical counterpart to argue for an i
 mportant contribution of the migration-induced spillover effect from the BT
 A shock in (i) facilitating labor reallocation away from the agricultural a
 nd informal sector\, (ii) improving earnings among the low-educated workers
 \, and (iii) closing the education earnings gap. Additionally\, the spillov
 er effect on earnings growth is persistent over time with its magnitude eve
 ntually exceeds that of direct exposure by 2018. Further analysis on provin
 cial poverty shows that these two types of exposure would have different ti
 ming on the poverty reduction outcome. A higher direct exposure to the BTA 
 shock reduces the poverty rate immediately after the BTA went into effect\,
  but this impact quickly subsides in a longer run. On the other hand\, the 
 poverty reduction effect of the spillover exposure slowly materializes and 
 only turns significant 6 years after the BTA implementation.
