Same same but different : dialects and trade
Lameli, Alfred; Nitsch, Volker; Südekum, Jens; Wolf, … - 2013
Language is a strong and robust determinant of international trade patterns: Countries sharing a common language trade … that this trade-promoting effect of language is likely to reflect cultural ties, rather than lower costs of communication … or similar institutions. Analyzing unique data for a single-language country, Germany, we find that similarities in the …

Staggered difference-in-differences in gravity settings : revisiting the effects of trade agreements
Nagengast, Arne J.; Yotov, Yoto - 2023
We nest an extended two-way fixed effect (ETWFE) estimator for staggered difference-in-differences within the structural gravity model. To test the ETWFE, we estimate the effects of regional trade agreements (RTAs). The results suggest that RTA estimates in the current gravity literature may be...

The determinants of trade costs : a random coefficients approach
Egger, Peter; Průša, Jan - 2014
This paper assesses whether the sensitivity of bilateral trade volumes to various trade cost factors is constant or varies across countries. It utilizes a random coeffcients model and analyses a cross-sectional sample of bilateral trade data for 96 countries in 2005. We expect the elasticity of...

Quantifying the extensive margin(s) of trade : the case of uneven European integration
Anderson, James E.; Yotov, Yoto - 2022
We propose a short-run theory of the extensive margins of trade, comprising the standard international extensive margin and a novel domestic extensive margin. The domestic extensive margin allows identification of globalization and specific policy effects not properly identified in previous...

Distance, globalization, and international trade
Borchert, Ingo; Yotov, Yoto V. - 2016
For a long time globalization could be seen everywhere but in gravity estimates. We offer evidence how globalization affects manufacturing trade over the period 1986-2006 and show that, on average, the effect of distance has fallen whereas the effects of proximity and regional trade agreements...

Border effects without borders : what divides Japan's Internal Trade?
Wrona, Jens - 2018
This paper identifies a "border" effect in the absence of a border. The finding that trade between East- and West-Japan is 23.1 to 51.3 percent lower than trade within both country parts, is established despite the absence of an obvious east-west division due to historical borders, cultural...

Quantifying Brexit : from ex post to ex ante using structural gravity
Felbermayr, Gabriel; Gröschl, Jasmin Katrin; … - 2018
Exploiting changes in the geography of economic integration in Europe, this paper uses detailed bilateral trade data for 50 sectors to carry out an econometric ex post evaluation of the trade cost effects of the United Kingdom's various arrangements with the European Union. The analysis reveals...
