Estimating National and Foreign Trade Elasticities Using Generalized Transport Costs

open access: yesJournal of Regional Science, Volume 65, Issue 2, Page 471-496, March 2025.
ABSTRACT We introduce the definition of two distinct trade elasticities corresponding to imports from regions located in the same country (national elasticities) and foreign regions located in other countries (foreign elasticities). We resort to a three‐tier nested CES utility structure to derive the corresponding demand gravity equations.

Combining microsimulation and CGE models: Effects on equality of VAT reforms [PDF]

open access: yes
Microsimulation models are apt to be the preferred instrument when applied, equality analyses of tax reforms in specific economies are undertaken. However, most of these models ignore general equilibrium effects, like changes in prices, and may therefore

The Impact of Autonomous Truck Technology on US Interstate Trade

open access: yesJournal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent advances in autonomous and semi‐autonomous vehicle technologies promise substantial cost savings for goods shipped by truck. In this study, we quantify the impacts of these transport cost reductions on the US interstate trade using a structural gravity model of domestic trade. Based on projected cost savings from the widespread adoption

Revising Structuralism in Times of Crisis: Lance Taylor and the Neo‐Structuralist Synthesis in the 1980s

open access: yesMetroeconomica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article places the work of Lance Taylor in the broader context of efforts in the 1980s to renew the structuralist tradition of development economics, into what was then newly coined as neo‐structuralism. These efforts centred around three groups: CEPAL, Lance Taylor and his team at MIT, and a group of economists based at the Institute of ...

Transportation Costs, Increasing Returns and Regional Growth: An Interregional CGE Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes
The purpose of this paper was threefold. First, we presented a flexible analytical framework, based on sound and consistent economic theory and data, in order to assess the likely state/sectoral/income effects of policy changes in Brazil.

Multi‐generation analysis of whether local or genetically mixed populations perform best in restoration plantings

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Proper selection of genetic material is critical for restoring populations, with local seed often selected to maximize local adaptation. But if local populations are small, inbred, or maladapted, then including genotypes from various populations may enhance population growth and long‐term adaptation.
