The objective of the present paper is to study the impact of R&D investment on inter-regional labour migration and inter-sectoral labour reallocation in the EU, specifically at regional level. In order to capture important general equilibrium effects, we employ a structural NEG model called...

The present paper describes the modelling of regional labour markets in the newly developed dynamic spatial general equilibrium model RHOMOLO, where the labour market equilibrium is determined by firms' labour demand, a wage-curve determining unemployment, and interregional labour migration. The...

This paper derives a gravity equation for commuter flows from a spatial labor market model based on the seminal trade paper by Anderson and Van Wincoop (2003) and uses it to identify the effect of regional borders on commuting. This approach allows us to identify the relevant control variables...
