The Mechanisms of Alcohol Control
Carpenter, Christopher - 2014
A substantial economics literature documents that tighter alcohol controls reduce alcohol related harms, but far less is known about mechanisms. We use the universe of Canadian mortality records to document that Canada's Minimum Legal Drinking Age (MLDA) significantly reduces mortality rates of...

The Effect of Alcohol Consumption on Mortality : Regression Discontinuity Evidence from the Minimum Drinking Age
Carpenter, Christopher - 2010
This paper estimates the effect of alcohol consumption on mortality using the minimum drinking age in a regression discontinuity design. We find that granting legal access to alcohol at age 21 leads to large and immediate increases in several measures of alcohol consumption, including a 21...
