Irene Iodice

I am an Assistant Professor at the University of Bielefeld. Previously, I spent one great year as a PostDoc working with Maria Bas for the ANR Project Moquat on Globalisation, Product Quality and Employment Effects. I have been external consultant for the World Bank. I hold a PhD in Economics from a joint program between Sant'Anna School of Advanced Studies and Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne (about this on Twitter!). My work has been advised by Lionel Fontagné and Giovanni Dosi.

I conduct research on the ways in which trade policies influence the dynamics of firms operating in international markets. Specifically, I focus on the evolution of trade agreements, including the transition from traditional measures such as import tariffs and quotas to regulatory rules and harmonization strategies. A major challenge in this area is the limited data available on non-tariff measures (NTMs), which are currently a significant component of trade agreements. To address this issue, I propose innovative methods for collecting and organizing data on NTMs using text analysis techniques.
