Interregional spillovers and urban-rural disparity in U.S. employment growth
Saito, Hisamitsu; Gopinath, Munisamy; Wu, JunJie - 2010
A wide urban-rural disparity is observed in employment growth in the United States. For example, employment growth averaged 2.1 percent in urban counties during 1998-2007, compared with just 1 percent in rural counties. In this study, we examine the sources of U.S. employment growth using the...

What can the EMU's peripheral countries learn from regional growth?
Aiginger, Karl; Firgo, Matthias; Huber, Peter - 2013
The experiences of 259 regions in 21 European countries with within country GDP per capita and labour productivity growth suggest that variables associated with pro-active, growth oriented strategies are consistently more important predictors of successful regional development than variables...
