network analysis, we characterise the structure of the R&D collaborations established between firms. Second, we investigate … put forward the existence of network effects alongside other microeconomic determinants of cooperation. Our findings … suggest that network effects are present, so that probability of collaboration is influenced by each individual's position …

A better understanding of the relationship between economic development and biodiversity loss is of great relevance, given the current rapid extinction of species along with challenges born from the context of economic development in poor countries. The purpose of the current study is to provide...

The aim of this paper is to develop a better understanding of the literature dealing with strategic fiscal behaviours of small EU countries using estimations of tax reaction functions of competing national governments. Deriving a simple model of tax competition in a Nash and Stackelberg game, we...

We study the impact of local competition on assortments' attractiveness. The first aim of our paper is to provide a simple and reproducible way to delineate a store trading area using widely available census data. The second aim is to develop a model of retail sales that takes into account...

This paper employs the hedonic price method (HPM) to examine whether the implicit value of the greenbelt is capitalized into apartment prices in the city of Vienna, Austria. We improve the traditional model using spatial econometric techniques and compare estimates from different spatial models,...

Biodiversity conservation in low-income economies is a vital issue and hence needs to be addressed for development and poverty eradication. A variety of empirical works exist on the subject, but the focus is often limited on the search for possible causes of biodiversity erosion. Research on the...

In hedonic housing models, the spatial dimension of housing values are traditionally processed by the impact of neighborhood variables and accessibility variables. In this paper we show that spatial effects might remain once neighborhood effects and accessibility have been controlled for. We...
