Abstract: Abstract In the last three decades, research in international economics has seen unprecedented innovation in terms of both theory and empirics. This has established the centrality of trade, within and between countries, to overall economic performance. Anthony J. Venables has been a crucial contributor to this wave of innovation. His legacy contained in his books and papers spans three broad areas: international trade, economic geography and economic development. In particular, he made significant contributions to the body of work that led to Paul Krugman’s Nobel Prize in 2008 for research on new trade theory and the so-called new economic geography. This chapter follows Venables’ academic trajectory through Cambridge, Essex, Oxford, Southampton and LSE, before his final return to Oxford in recent years.
