Using entropy indices and associated bootstrap tests, we describe the distribution of economic sectors across Western European regions over the 1975-2000 period. We decompose geographic concentration into its within-country and between-country components. In addition, we estimate centre...

Global Value Chains play an increasing role in production and export in modern economies. Being part of such global chains can fundamentally affect the performance of a firm, a country, or an industry. In this study, we analyze the production and export of intermediate products and capital goods...

Product- and partner-level disaggregated trade data linked with firm-level data make possible the understanding of the structure of foreign trade. This study analyses the trade duration of firms, its relation to the products and partners and the foreign trade margins defined in different ways....
