There has recently been a global increase in economic losses due to cyberattacks. However, research on the economic damage caused by cyberattacks has mainly focused on attacked companies, and spillover damage to other sectors has not been sufficiently investigated. This study analyzed the...

Assessment of the innovation climate in Russian regions is a priority. Given the uneven socio-economic development of the federation subjects, it is essential to determine their readiness for the transition to an innovative course. However, due to the high degree of differentiation in the...

This paper performs a nonlinear estimation of a normalized CES production function within a system of equations with a panel of Spanish regions for the period 1964-2013. It obtains an elasticity of substitution below one and identifies different rates of factor-augmenting technical progress. The...

Improved land-use efficiency in agricultural production is crucial to meet increasing demand for agricultural commodities using the finite area of arable land worldwide. By applying a spatial autoregressive stochastic frontier methodology to county-level data spanning from 1980 to 2011, we...

Consumer decisions are essential in reducing CO2 emissions released by human activities. Climate policies aimed at reducing consumers' carbon footprint require societal embrace and leaving no one behind; however, they often negatively affect low-income families and rural households with limited...

This paper studies the effect of a local sectoral productivity shock on subnational structural transformation. The analysis is based on regional input-output tables constructed for 2004 and 2013 and available censuses of firms in 2003 and 2013 for Ghana. Based on the data, the analysis confirms...

Regions and industries are not isolated islands; so, when evaluating productivity growth, regional and sectoral growth paths should not be expected to generate independently. Moreover, accounting for spatial interactions via econometric models has become normal practice; but modelling...

This study implements and tests a mathematical programming model to estimate interregional, interindustry transaction flows in a national system of economic regions based on an interregional accounting framework and initial information of interregional shipments. A national input-output (IO)...

This paper aims to approach the topic of structural convergence for new member states from the perspective of input-output analysis. Using a set of input-output measures, based on the OECD RStan database, and a number of unit-root tests, both for individual time series and panel data, this paper...
