Mario J. Crucini is a Professor of Economics at Vanderbilt University. He received his Ph.D. in economics in 1991 from the University of Rochester. His primary field of study is international economics. Within this field he addresses both simple questions and subtle theoretical propositions.

An example of a simple question: Do prices of goods and services in retail markets differ across cities of the world? As might be familiar to anyone who has traveled, and made the currency-conversions necessary to make the comparison possible, the answer to this question is yes. A more interesting question to ask is why.
