• Global Trade and the Maritime Transport Revolution (2010, background): “Unlike Baier and Bergstrand (2001), we are also able to associate income convergence with the growth of trade volumes as this variable explains 18% of the variation of the dependent variable—a result that might be explained by the greater convergence forces in effect for the pre– World War I era…”
