内容简介:In a randomized control trial of customer-supplier firm pairs in New Zealand, we treat with information one firm in a pair and analyze its effects on expectations and actions of the directly treated firms (direct effect) and connected firms that did not directly receive information (spillover effect). We find strong spillover effects in expectations and actions. We show that the spillover effects on the connected firms’ expectations are driven by inter-firm communication, as opposed to observable actions. We embed inter-firm communication along the supply chain in a New Keynesian pricing problem and discuss the macroeconomic implications of input-output network-specific communication.

演讲人简介: Jordan J Norris is an Assistant Professor of Economics at New York University Abu Dhabi. He received his PhD in Economics from Northwestern University and holds a master’s degree in Theoretical Physics from the University of Cambridge. His research lies at the intersection of spatial economics and networks, motivated by the idea that space itself can be understood as a network. Across international trade, economic geography, and macroeconomics, his work spans theory and empirics, from high-dimensional comparative statics to experimental research on how firms’ behaviour is shaped by networks.
