Dimitrije’s work spans macroeconomics and international trade. His research investigates how differences across firms shape macroeconomic outcomes. By combining models of differentiated firms with detailed microdata, he examines issues such as productivity dynamics, resource allocation, inequality, and firm-reputation spillovers. Dimitrije’s recent projects focus on understanding productivity trends in advanced economies and uncovering the drivers behind the mid-2000s labour-productivity slowdown in major European countries and the US.
