Based on a data set for 19 OECD countries for the period 1981-2001, we estimate the impact of FDI on corporate tax rates, where changes in FDI are a measure for changes in capital mobility. So far the literature has been concerned with the related but rather different question as to the...

The aim of this paper is to test for the relevance of spatial linkages for Dutch (outbound) FDI. To do so, and based on recent FDI theories, we estimate a spatial lag model to assess the importance of spatial linkages for Dutch FDI to 18 host countries. As a determinant of FDI, space or...

Based on a data set for 19 OECD countries for the period 1981-2001, we estimate the impact of capital mobility (FDI) on corporate tax rates. So far the literature has been concerned with the related but rather different question as to the sensitivity of FDI to tax rates. Our paper takes an...

This paper is about the impact on (low-skilled) labour. We build a new economic geography model in which two types of labour (low and high-skilled) are distinguished and in which, due to wage rigidies, unemployment may arise. We also introduce two types of transportation costs (for goods and...

This paper is about the impact of globalisation on (low-skilled) labour. We build a new economic geography model in which two types of labour (low and high-skilled) are distinguished and in which, due to wage rigidities, unemployment may arise. We also introduce two types of transportation costs...
