摘要

我们利用飞行距离随时间变化的外生冲击，在面板回归中估算航空贸易的距离效应。我们发现了负的距离效应，并将其解释为运输成本与航空贸易之间存在联系的证据。值得注意的是，这种关系几乎完全是由广义边际的变化所驱动的。具体而言，当飞行距离增加时，具有间歇性贸易历史的 HS 6 产品类别的贸易就会休眠。相反，贸易的密集边际基本不受影响。

Fly the unfriendly skies: The role of transport costs in gravity models of trade

We exploit exogenous shocks to flight distances over time to estimate the distance effect in airborne trade within panel regressions. We find a negative distance effect, which we interpret as evidence of a link between transportation costs and airborne trade. Notably, this relationship is driven almost entirely by changes at the extensive margin. Specifically, trade in HS 6 product categories with intermittent trading histories becomes dormant when flight distances increase. Conversely, the intensive margin of trade remains largely unaffected.

期刊介绍： The Journal of International Economics is intended to serve as the primary outlet for theoretical and empirical research in all areas of international economics. These include, but are not limited to the following: trade patterns, commercial policy; international institutions; exchange rates; open economy macroeconomics; international finance; international factor mobility. The Journal especially encourages the submission of articles which are empirical in nature, or deal with issues of open economy macroeconomics and international finance. Theoretical work submitted to the Journal should be original in its motivation or modelling structure. Empirical analysis should be based on a theoretical framework, and should be capable of replication.
