Check out Issue 2 of the VoxDevLit on International Trade! VoxDevLits adjust to new evidence, so there's lots new to uncover in this new issue. I've practically rewritten the chapter on externalities and spillovers from trade & FDI, and I'm excited to do it all over again as new evidence comes in!🎯🔥
Senior Editors David Atkin & Amit Khandelwal @yaleeconomics.bsky.social highlight key takeaways for trade policy from economic research.

This is an important time. For decades, trade barriers had been declining, but the direction of policy has become far less certain.
