利用美国商品流量调查的数据,我们表明,相对于前联盟内部的贸易流量,历史上的联邦-邦联边界使美国各州之间的同期贸易减少了约16%。在100万个安慰剂中,没有其他的状态分组能产生更大的边界效应。这一发现在不同的计量经济模型、对世界其他地区的处理、可用的调查浪潮或汇总水平上都是可靠的。包括同时期的控制因素,如网络、制度或人口变量,以及Heckscher-Ohlin或Linder术语,只会略微降低估计。历史变量,如奴隶制的发生,并不能解释这种影响。加上未受内战影响的美国各州,我们认为,这种摩擦不仅仅反映了无法衡量的南北差异。最后,估计的边界效应对差异化商品比同质商品更大,强调文化因素和信任的潜在作用。
Using data from the US commodity flow surveys, we show that the historical Union- Confederacy border lowers contemporaneous trade between US states by about 16 percent relative to trade flows within the former alliances. Amongst one million placebos, there is no other constellation of state grouping that would yield a larger border effect. The finding is robust over different econometric models, treatment of the rest of the world, available survey waves, or levels of aggregation. Including contemporaneous controls, such as network, institutional or demographic variables, and Heckscher-Ohlin or Linder terms, lowers the estimate only slightly. Historical variables, such as the incidence of slavery, do not explain the effect away. Adding US states unaffected by the Civil War, we argue that the friction is not merely reflecting unmeasured North-South differences. Finally, the estimated border effect is larger for differentiated than for homogeneous goods, stressing the potential role for cultural factors and trust.
