The European Union (EU) provides grants to disadvantaged regions of member states to allow them to catch up with the EU average. Under the Objective 1 scheme, NUTS2 regions with a GDP per capita level below 75% of the EU average qualify for structural funds transfers from the central EU budget....

This paper derives a micro-founded gravity equation in general equilibrium based on a translog demand system that … allows for endogenous markups and rich substitution patterns across goods. In contrast to standard CES-based gravity … to be zero. I test the translog gravity equation and find strong empirical support in its favor. In an application to the …

Many studies have found that international borders represent large barriers to trade. But how do international borders compare to domestic border barriers? We investigate international and domestic border barriers in a unified framework. We consider a unique data set of exports from individual...
