We build a dynamic model of two countries, two sectors and two factors with firm heterogeneity and price rigidity to analyze the short-run and long-run consequences of trade liberalization and its interaction with monetary policy. We find that price rigidity slows down the reallocation process and might imply temporary falls in real wages for some workers. The stance of monetary policy also has a big impact on real wages and real GDP.
