The effect of Confucius Institutes on US Exports to China: A state level analysis

This paper uses the trade gravity model to examine the effects of Confucius Institutes (CIs) on the exports of US states to China in 2006–2010. Overall, we detect a 5–6% increase in state exports for each additional CI branch established in a given state. This provides strong robust evidence that CIs provide direct economic benefits to the United States.
