countries which adopted the common currency since 2002. Based on “state of the art” gravity estimations for the period 1992 …-2013, we reach three main conclusions. First, estimates from an appropriately specified and estimated gravity equation provide … global average during the 2002-2013 period. Using the functional form of a theory-consistent gravity equation, we perform …

Does distance matter for the volatility of international real and financial transactions? We show that it does, in addition to its well-established relevance for the level of trade. A simple model of trade with endogenous markups shows that demand shocks have a larger impact on trade between...

Although urban growth historically depended on large inflows of migrants, little is known of the process of migration in the era before railways. Here we use detailed data for Paris on women arrested for prostitution in the 1760s, or registered as prostitutes in the 1830s and 1850s; and of men...

What precisely were the causes and consequences of the trade wars in the 1930s? Were there perhaps deeper forces at work in reorienting global trade prior to the outbreak of World War II? And what lessons may this particular historical episode provide for the present day? To answer these...
