Suburbanization and highways in Spain when the Romans and the Bourbons still shape its cities

We estimate the effects of highways on the suburbanization of Spanish cities. Based on Spain's historical roads - the almost 2000. years old Roman roads and the 1760 Bourbon roads -, we rely on an instrumental variables (IV) strategy because of the endogeneity of highway provision. Our results...
