Mayer, Thierry and Paillacar, Rodrigo and Zignago, Soledad (2008): TradeProd. The CEPII Trade, Production and Bilateral Protection Database: Explanatory Notes.

Abstract

TradeProd, the CEPII trade, production and bilateral protection database, provides an updated version of the worldwide data used in Mayer and Zignago (2005), and available on CEPII's website. The database contains three groups of information covering 28 industrial sectors in the ISIC (International Standard Industrial Classication) classication Revision 2. The first group is bilateral trade for the 1980-2004 period, based on BACI, one of the most exhaustive worldwide dataset publicly available. The second is an extension of industrial production figures from the Trade, Production and Protection database by Nicita and Olarreaga (2001). The third group is bilateral data on trade policy at the industry level (taris and NTBs) taken from TRAINS and from CEPII's MAcMap databasee, which both cover the 1989-2001 period.
