I develop a model of firm-to-firm search and matching to show that the impact of falling trade costs on firm sourcing decisions and consumer welfare depends on the relative size of search externalities in domestic and international markets. These externalities can be positive if firms share information about potential matches, or negative if the market is congested. Using unique firm-to-firm transaction-level data from Uganda, I document empirical evidence consistent with positive externalities in international markets and negative externalities in domestic markets. I then build a dynamic quantitative version of the model and show that, in Uganda, a 25% reduction in trade costs led to a 3.7% increase in consumer welfare, 12% of which was due to search externalities.

"Although refugee camps are established to accommodate, protect, and assist those fleeing from violent conflict and persecution, life often remains difficult there. Building on empirical research with refugees in a Ugandan camp, Ulrike Krause offers nuanced insights into violence, humanitarian protection, gender relations, and coping of refugees who mainly escaped the conflicts in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. This book explores how risks of gender-based violence against women, in particular, but also against men, persist despite and partly due to their settlement in the camp and the system established there. It reflects on modes and shortcomings of humanitarian protection, changes in gender relations, as well as strategies that the women and men use to cope with insecurities, everyday struggles, and structural problems occurring across different levels and temporalities"--

"A comprehensive ethnographic study of the ritual healing and spirit mediumship tradition called kusamira. Based on extensive ethnographic fieldwork in the Buganda and Busoga regions of southern Uganda, this study demonstrates how the performance of music in kusamira ritual supports the creation and maintenance of social relations that serve mutual aid and health goals. The author deploys performance as a category of analysis to document how a social reproduction of well-being serves as both the goal and the process of kusamira ritual. The study also articulates the relevance of expressive culture-specifically ritual performances of the kusamira repertory-to understanding African modes of knowledge production within broader discourses on development and public health"--
