Abstract

This study examines the impact of repealing Sunday blue laws on alcohol sales and retail competition, focusing on Connecticut’s 2012 policy change allowing Sunday beer sales in grocery stores. Using nationwide data from 2004 to 2021, we find a short-term increase in beer sales post-policy change, but no significant long-term economic effects on grocery and liquor stores. Our analysis also shows similar treatment effects for chain and standalone liquor retailers, suggesting limited lasting implications for the liquor retail industry’s performance and conduct after Sunday sale restrictions were lifted.

In Cervisia Veritas：废除周日蓝法对酒类销售和零售竞争的影响

本研究以康涅狄格州 2012 年允许杂货店周日销售啤酒的政策变化为重点，探讨了废除周日蓝法对酒类销售和零售竞争的影响。利用 2004 年至 2021 年的全国数据，我们发现政策改变后啤酒销量短期内有所增长，但对杂货店和酒类商店没有显著的长期经济影响。我们的分析还显示，连锁酒类零售商和独立酒类零售商的处理效果相似，这表明周日销售限制取消后，对酒类零售行业的业绩和行为产生的持久影响有限。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Wine Economics (JWE), launched in 2006, provides a focused outlet for high-quality, peer-reviewed research on economic topics related to wine. Although wine economics papers have been, and will continue to be, published in leading general and agricultural economics journals, the number of high-quality papers has grown to such an extent that a specialized journal can provide a useful platform for the exchange of ideas and results. The JWE is open to any area related to the economic aspects of wine, viticulture, and oenology. It covers a wide array of topics, including, but not limited to: production, winery activities, marketing, consumption, as well as macroeconomic and legal topics. The JWE has been published twice a year and contains main papers, short papers, notes and comments, reviews of books, films and wine events, as well as conference announcements. From 2013 on, the JWE has been published three times per year. The Journal of Wine Economics is fully owned by the American Association of Wine Economists (AAWE) and, since 2012, has been published by Cambridge University Press.
