讲座内容:
How do the gravity and Washington Apples effects in trade evolve in the digital era? We study the digitization impact on US movie exports. We find digitization reduces the gravity effect: A one-standard-deviation increase in digitizationreduces the distance elasticity from -0.46 to -0.40. Interestingly, it weakens theWashington Apples effect: The average gap in distance elasticities between topand bottom quality movies (those at the 10th and 90th percentiles of IMDb ratings) is 0.240; a one-standard-deviation digitization increase reduces this gap by0.11. Our results are robust to alternative measures of digitization and quality.
