NEW PUBLICATION IN ECONOMICS SYSTEMS RESEARCH

GEAR team members María Ángeles Cadarso, Fabio Monsalve and Guadalupe Arce, have recently published a new paper in the journal Economics Systems Research about the importance of model choice  (bilateral or multiregional) analysing carbon content of trade and with a particular focus on  border tax adjustments on the carbon content of imports. The paper is  entitled “Emissions burden shifting in global value chains – winners and losers under multi-regional versus bilateral accounting”.

CONGRATS GUYS!!
