This paper investigates the relationship between volatility and economic growth in the European regions over the period 1995-2008. To that end, we estimate a two-way fixed effects panel data model using spatial econometric techniques that allow us to incorporate into the analysis the relevance...

This paper examines productive specialization in the regions of the European Union over the period 1977 to 1999 using the information provided by various methodological instruments. The results obtained reveal a process of convergence in regional productive structures during the twenty-three...

As a contribution to the study of intradistributional mobility, this paper introduces a family of functions whose usefulness as mobility measures is justi ed by di erent theoretical results. Indeed, as a particular case, this family includes the Bartholomew index, which is widely used in the...

This paper examines the sources of spatial disparities in output per capita across the European regions over the period 1986-2004. To this end, a decomposition of the Theil´s second measure of inequality is used. The analysis carried out shows the important role played by labour productivity...
