Inequality convergence revisited: Evidence from stationarity panel tests with breaks and cross correlation
Lin, Pei-Chien; Huang, Ho-Chuan - In: Economic Modelling 29 (2012) 2, pp. 316-325
This paper empirically examines whether there exists stochastic convergence of income inequality among 48 contiguous … evidence in support of the hypothesis of inter-state inequality convergence. Moreover, the results are robust to alternative … inequality measures applied, different notions of stochastic convergence defined, and alternative panel stationary test employed. …

Knowledge Structure and Regional Economic Growth: The French case
Quatraro, Francesco - HAL - 2011
The paper investigate the effects of knowledge on economic growth at the regional level Methodology approach: We elaborate a view on knowledge as the result of a combinatorial search activity and implement indicators synthesizing the network architecture of knowledge structure Findings:...

Knowledge Coherence, Variety and economic Growth: Manufacturing Evidence from Italian Regions
Quatraro, Francesco - HAL - 2010
This paper elaborates a view on knowledge as a result of a combinatorial search activity, so as to investigate its effects on economic growth at the regional level. Empirical estimations corroborate the hypothesis that knowledge coherence and variety, besides the traditional measure of knowledge...

Economic growth and income distribution in Mexico: A cointegration exercise
Risso, W. Adrián; Punzo, Lionello F.; Carrera, Edgar … - In: Economic Modelling 35 (2013) C, pp. 708-714
The empirical evidence on the relationship between income inequality and economic growth is widely recognized and, now, there are rich databases for carry on panel-data type of analyses. However, time series studies for specific countries may be more attractive and yield revealing results. For...

Joint determinants of fiscal policy, income inequality and economic growth
Muinelo-Gallo, Leonel; Roca-Sagalés, Oriol - In: Economic Modelling 30 (2013) C, pp. 814-824
This paper analyses the relationship between income inequality and economic growth through fiscal policy. To this end, we present and estimate two systems of structural equations with error components through which gross income inequality determines different fiscal policy outcomes, which...
