Local Determinants of Crime: Distinguishing between Resident and Non-resident Offenders

Büttner, Thiess; Spengler, Hannes - 2003

The paper revisits the local determinants of crime using a spatial model distinguishing between resident and non-resident offenders. Employing data for German municipalities, the model is estimated by means of a spatial GMM approach. Focusing on resident offenders legal earnings opportunities...

Are There Border Effects in the EU Wage Function?

Huber, Peter; Pfaffermayr, Michael; Wolfmayr, Yvonne - In: DANUBE: Law and Economics Review (2011) 2, pp. 23-41

We estimate a linear approximation of the market potential function for Europe as derived in geography and trade models. Using a spatial econometric estimation approach, border effects are identified by a differential impact of other regions’ purchasing power, depending on whether two regions...

A Note on Partitioning Effects Estimates Over Space

Court, Christa; Lacombe, Donald - Regional Research Institute (RRI), West Virginia University - 2011

In this paper we provide an applied example for calculating the so-called effects estimates of LeSage and Pace (2009) for partitions of the impacts over space. While the partitioning of the impacts by orders of neighbors over space for the spatial autoregressive (SAR) model is a relatively...
