The unit will focus on the construction of the trade data, in cooperation with UNISI, continuing a collaboration between the principal investigator and Michelangelo Vasta (Federico et al 2012, Federico and Vasta 2010, 2015).

Furthermore, the unit will also cooperate with SSSA on the construction of the data on real-wages.
