The impacts of port infrastructure and logistics performance on economic growth: the mediating role of seaborne trade (2018, background): “Coto-Millán et al. (2013) found that a 1% increase in logistic performance index can increase the world economic growth by between 1.1 – 3.4%.”
The Trade Reducing Effects of Market Power in International Shipping (2009, background): “…features of the shipping industry that are exporter specific, including cargo reservation policies (Fink et al 2000), the strength of liner conference activity (Fink et al 2000, Clyde and Reitzes 1995), and port efficiency (Wilmsmeier et al 2006, Blonigen and Wilson, 2006, Clark et al 2004).”
Global Agricultural Trade and Developing Countries (2004, background): “This variable attempts to capture freight space availability and the economies of scale in international transport (Clark, Dollar, and Micco 2002).”
Shaky Roads and Trembling Exports: Assessing the Trade Effects of Domestic Infrastructure Using a Natural Experiment (2012, background): “4 Limão, and Venables, 2001; Clark et al., 2004; Blonigen and Wilson, 2008; and Mesquita Moreira et al., 2008).”
Roads, exports and employment: Evidence from a developing country (2017, result): “Within this extensive literature (see, e.g., Clerides et al., 1998; Bernard and Jensen, 1999; Girma et al., 2003; van Biesebroeck, 2005; De Loecker, 2007), our paper is methodologically closer to two recent contributions by Lileeeva and Trefler (2010) and especially Park et al. (2010).”
To What Extent Are High-Quality Logistics Services Trade Facilitating? (2011, background): “Clark et al. (2004) find that the effect of port efficiency on transport costs and the effect of transport costs on maritime trade flows are significantly negative.”
