International trade has grown rapidly over the past half century,
accommodated by the transportation industry through concomitant
growth and technological change. But while the connection between
transport and trade flows is clear, the academic literature often
looks at these two issues separately. This Handbook is unique in
pulling together the key insights of each field while highlighting
what we know about their intersection and ideas for future research
in this relatively unexamined but growing area of study. After
presenting the latest data and modeling techniques used to explain
global trade patterns, the chapters address directly the core theme
of the Handbook: the intersection of international trade and
transportation costs. Other key topics examined include trade
facilitation, trade networks, and the role of transport costs in
offshoring, foreign investment location, and the role of
intermediary firms. The Handbook is an excellent primer on the
essential concepts and references in international trade and
transport for scholars who may have their primary expertise in one
of these areas, but are not as familiar with the other. It will
also be an invaluable resource for advanced undergraduate students,
graduate students, and other researchers who are relatively new to
either field. Contributors include: L. Alfaro, S.L. Baier, K.
