jie-rebuttal

separate

Use when drafting the response letter for a revise-and-resubmit at the Journal of International Economics (JIE) — answering international-trade or open-economy-macro referees on gravity/structural specification, identification, and model discipline, and keeping the revision within JIE's scope and originality bar. Structures the rebuttal; it does not invent results.

When to use

• Drafting JIE R&R response letters
• Answering trade and macro referees
• Addressing gravity specification challenges
• Handling identification and model discipline issues
• Structuring rebuttals for JIE scope and originality

When not to use

• Inventing results
• Defensive letters that argue rather than revise
• Expanding scope to lose originality
• Patching gravity log-OLS instead of moving to PPML
