  • Terror and Tourism: the Economic Consequences of Media Coverage
    Terror and Tourism: The Economic Consequences of Media Coverage Timothy Besley Thiemo Fetzer Hannes Mueller∗ December 27, 2019 Abstract This paper studies the economic effects of news-coverage of violent events. To do so, we combine monthly aggregated and anonymized credit card data on tourism spending from 114 origin countries and 5 tourist destinations (Turkey, Egypt, Tunisia, Israel and Morocco) with a large corpus of more than 446 thousand newspaper articles covering news on the 5 destination countries from a subset of 57 tourist origin countries. We document that violent events in a destination are followed by sharp spikes in negative reporting at origin and contractions in tourist activity. Media coverage of violence has a large independent effect on tourist spending beyond what can be accounted for by controlling for the incidence of violence. We develop a model in which tourist beliefs, actual violence and media reporting are modelled together. This model allows us to quantify the effect of violent events and reporting. ∗Corresponding author: Mueller, [email protected]. Besley is based at the London School of Economics, Fetzer at Warwick University and Mueller is based at IAE (CSIC) and the Barcelona GSE. We thank seminar audiences at Paris School of Economics, CAGE/Warwick University, Banco de Espana, CIREQ in Montreal, Barcelona GSE Summer Forum, London School of Economics, CUNEF Madrid. We are grateful to the International Growth Centre (IGC) and to the Mastercard Center for Inclusive Growth for their support.

  • Where Are They Now? UF Russian Studies Alumni Profile
    Where Are They Now? UF Russian Studies Alumni Profile Alumnus: Peter Spinella (class of ‘05) Concentration(s) at UF: (majors) Russian Studies & English; (minor) Music Theory Current occupation: Moscow correspondent, covering Russia and the rest of the former Soviet Union. Looking back, what aspects of your UF Russian studies proved particularly useful? The summer study in Moscow, hosted by Professors Alexander Burak and Galina Rylkova, was wonderful. They taught me a great deal about Russian culture. With regard to your pursuit of Russian at UF, is there anything you didn’t take or get that would have been useful? I definitely should have done a minor in business. I worked for several years as an editor and translator at a couple of investment banks and a big-four consulting company in Moscow. I was lucky to get the first job; I had to spend a lot of long nights in the office reading up about business concepts. What did you do after you graduated? Immediately after I graduated I moved to Moscow. I studied the language at the Russian State University for the Humanities (RGGU), where I had previously done a summer session coordinated by UF, and I taught English to make a living. About a year later, I got a job as an English editor at a big-four consultancy. Are you still using your Russian? Yes, every day. Thank you. What advice might you have for Russian studies students considering Russian as a major? Don’t give up. For native English speakers, Russian is definitely a challenging foreign language.
