The expansion of regionalism has spawned an extensive theoretical literature analysing the effects of Free Trade … Agreements (FTAs) on trade flows. In this paper we focus on FTAs (also called European agreements) between the European Union (EU … effects on trade flows by treating the agreement variable as endogenous. Our theoretical framework is the gravity model, and …
