Do Territories with Geographical Indications Trade Better? Open
Do Geographical Indications (GIs) have an impact on local export dynamics? This paper uses a panel geo-referenced dataset and a quasi-experimental approach based on Propensity Score Matching and Difference in Differences methods. Specifica…

The international trade impacts of Geographical Indications: Hype or hope? Open
The European Geographical Indication quality scheme (GI) is supposed to enhance local expertise and support spatially-embedded products worldwide. Currently, the effect of GIs on trade is controversial. In general, GIs seem to support inte…

The Dark Matter of Bilateral Preferential Margins: An Assessment of the Effect of US Tariffs Open
This article aimed to quantify the impact of United States (US) trade policies and assess how changes in tariff margins will affect imports to the US. To do that, we estimated trade elasticities by sector using a gravity structural model, …

The consequences of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement for the UK’s international trade Open
We analyse the likely trade effects of the Trade and Cooperation Agreement (TCA), which defines the post-Brexit trading environment between the United Kingdom (UK) and the European Union (EU). We apply a computable general equilibrium mode…

The AfCFTA impact on agricultural and food trade: a value added perspective Open
The African Continental Free Trade Area agreement will create the largest single market in the world in terms of the number of countries and people. We analyse the effects of regional trade liberalisation on production fragmentation and ne…

An assessment of import tariff costs for Italian exporting firms Open
Since production and trade are increasingly organized within global value chains (GVCs), assessing who effectively pays the cost of protection is not straightforward and since productive processes are internationally fragmented, quantifyin…

On the effects of EU trade policy: agricultural tariffs still matter Open
We capitalise on the latest development in the empirical structural gravity literature to examine the question of whether and how much the European Union (EU) agricultural tariffs affect agricultural imports. We capture both the protection…

The Trade Impact of EU Tariff Margins: An Empirical Assessment Open
This article provides an assessment of how the EU trade policies affect EU imports. The main contribution is that we compute a theoretically consistent measure of the EU tariff margin and estimate the elasticities of substitution at the se…

Economy-wide analysis of food waste reductions and related costs Open
Reducing of food waste has become a policy priority in recent years as many studies show that a significant amount of food is wasted in different stages of food supply chain. However, the economic impacts of food waste reduction are not we…

Market chain participation and food security: the case of the Ugandan maize farmers Open
An assessment of the links between market chain participation and food security is hampered by a scant empirical literature, mostly based on case studies. Our goal is to deal with this issue by providing a sound identification strategy usi…
