The role of fiscal transfers for regional economic convergence in Europe
Checherita-Westphal, Cristina; Nickel, Christiane; … - 2009
-capita output convergence across a large sample of European regions during the period 1995-2005. We find that net fiscal transfers …, while achieving regional redistribution, seem to impede output growth and promote an “immiserising convergence”: output …

Misspecification in Linear Spatial Regression Models
Florax, Raymond J.G.M.; Nijkamp, Peter - Tinbergen Instituut - 2003
Spatial effects are endemic in models based on spatially referenced data. The increased awareness of the relevance of spatial interactions, spatial externalities and networking effects among actors, evoked the area of spatial econometrics. Spatial econometrics focuses on the specification and...

Regional Population-Employment Dynamics across Different Sectors of the Economy
Graaff, Thomas de; Oort, Frank G. van; Florax, Raymond … - Tinbergen Instituut - 2011
An important subset of the literature on agglomeration externalities hypothesizes thatintrasectoral and intersectoral relations are endogenously determined in models of localand regional economic growth. Remarkably, structural adjustment models describing thespatio-temporal dynamics of...

The Impact of Regional Absorptive Capacity on Spatial Knowledge Spillovers
Caragliu, Andrea; Nijkamp, Peter - Tinbergen Instituut - 2008
This discussion paper led to an article in <I>Applied Economics</I> (2012). Volume 44, issue 11, pages 1363-1374.<P> We design a conceptual framework for linking two approaches: the literature on absorptive capacity and the literature on spatial knowledge spillovers. Regions produce new knowledge, but...</p></i>

The Impact of Regional Absorptive Capacity on Spatial Knowledge Spillovers
Caragliu, Andrea; Nijkamp, Peter - Tinbergen Institute - 2008
We design a conceptual framework for linking two approaches: the literature on absorptive capacity and the literature on spatial knowledge spillovers. Regions produce new knowledge, but only part of it is efficiently adopted in the economy; the share of efficiently adopted technology depends on...

A Meta-Analysis of Beta-Convergence: The Legendary Two-Percent
Abreu, Maria; Groot, Henri L.F. de; Florax, Raymond J.G.M. - Tinbergen Instituut - 2005
The topic of convergence is at the heart of a wide-ranging debate in the growth literature. Empirical studies of … convergence differ widely in their theoretical backgrounds, empirical specifications and in their treatment of cross …-sectional heterogeneity. Despite these differences, a rate of convergence of about 2% has been found under a variety of different conditions …
