Decentralization as a disincentive for terror (2004, background): “…research has shown that terrorist acts significantly reduce the number of tourists (see, e.g., Enders et al., 1992) as well as foreign direct investment (Enders and Sandler, 1996), gross domestic income and stock prices (Abadie and Gardeazabal, 2003) as well as trade (Nitsch and Schumacher, 2004).”
Does a Carbon Tax Reduce CO2 Emissions? Evidence from British Columbia (2019, methodology): “To further alleviate concerns about difference-in-differences with a single treated unit, I investigate the effect of the introduction of the carbon tax using synthetic controls (Abadie and Gardeazabal 2003; Abadie et al. 2010).”
The Effects of Affirmative Action Bans on College Enrollment, Educational Attainment, and the Demographic Composition of Universities (2012, methodology): “Moreover, I use the case study methods of Abadie and Gardeazabal (2003) and Abadie, Diamond, and Hainmueller (2010) and find that the affirmative action ban in California shifted students from more selective campuses to less selective ones at the University of California.”
Inference in Differences-in-Differences with Few Treated Groups and Heteroskedasticity (2019, methodology): “An alternative estimation method for the case with few treated groups is the synthetic control (SC) estimator, proposed by Abadie and Gardeazabal (2003) and Abadie et al. (2010).”
