The (Structural) Gravity of Epidemics
Cuñat, Alejandro; Zymek, Robert - 2020
Epidemiological models assume gravity-like interactions of individuals across space without microfoundations. We … of people across space obey a structural gravity equation. By means of an application to data from Great Britain we show … that our structural-gravity framework: provides a rationale for quarantines; offers a clear mapping from observed geography …

Covid-19 shocking global value chains
Eppinger, Peter S.; Felbermayr, Gabriel; Krebs, Oliver; … - 2020
In early 2020, the disease Covid-19 caused a drastic lockdown of the Chinese economy. We use a quantitative trade model with input-output linkages to gauge the effects of this adverse supply shock in China on the global economy through international trade and global value chains (GVCs). We find...

Decoupling global value chains
Eppinger, Peter S.; Felbermayr, Gabriel; Krebs, Oliver; … - 2021
Recent disruptions to global value chains (GVCs) have raised an important question: Can decoupling from GVCs increase a country’s welfare by reducing its exposure to foreign supply shocks? We use a quantitative trade model to simulate GVCs decoupling, defined as increased barriers to global...

Covid-19 crisis, pandemic resilience and linkages to land : an exposition
Choudhury, Pranab R.; Ghosh, Ranjan Kumar; Sindhi, Sumita - 2020
For a COVID-19 like pandemic, the Achilles heel is an unsuspecting villain – rapid and global land use changes. The way governments, businesses and communities see, relate to and use land, not only influences the outbreak but also determines their impact on humanity and development. Drawing...
