Network Analysis of World Trade using the BACI-CEPII Dataset (2014, unknown): “The resulting data is therefore not suited for the analysis of trade smuggling based on the information derived from the discrepancy between reported flows (Fisman and Wei, 2004, 2009; Javorcik and Narciso, 2008; Rotunno and Vézina, 2012).”
Gravity Redux: Estimation of Gravity-Equation Coefficients, Elasticities of Substitution, and General Equilibrium Comparative Statics under Asymmetric Bilateral Trade Costs (2013, background): “Aggregate bilateral trade flows Following Krugman (1980), we assume there exists a single industry where preferences are constant-elasticity-of-substitution (CES). We assume iceberg transport costs and symmetric firms within each region, and hence all products in region i sell at the same price, pi.”
