New Protectionist Policies: Political Determinants and Economic Consequences

Image of New Protectionist Policies: Political Determinants and Economic Consequences

The project aims to uncover the links between the political determinants of trade policies, as well as of intellectual property rights protection, and their effect on firm behavior (e.g. location and innovation choices and Business Group formation), organization of production (e.g. emergence of Global Value Chains), and efficiency of production systems, with a particular focus on Europe. It also aims at pointing out possible policy corrections and interventions by international organizations.
