Fiaschi, Davide; Parenti, Angela - Institut for Miljø og Erhvervsøkonomi, Syddansk … - 2010
In this paper we present a novel methodology for estimating the determinants of distribution dynamics and discuss an application to the distribution dynamics of (labour) productivity across a large sample of countries. We perform a Monte Carlo study of methodology taking as base Mankiw et al....

Productivity Dynamics across European Regions: the Impact of Structural and Cohesion Funds
Fiaschi, Davide; Lavezzi, Andrea Mario; Parenti, Angela - Dipartimento di Economia e Management, Università … - 2009
This paper analyzes the impact of the European Union regional policy of the three programming periods 1975-1988, 1989-1993 and 1994-1999 on the dynamics of productivity of European regions. On average, funding had a positive, but concave, effect on productivity growth. In particular, a share of...

Distance to the Efficiency Frontier and FDI Spillovers
Peter, Klara Sabirianova; Svejnar, Jan; Terrell, Katherine - 2004
We establish that domestically owned firms in two alternative models of emerging market economies, the Czech Republic and Russia, have not been converging to the technological frontier set by foreign owned firms. In both countries, the distance of domestic firms to the frontier grew (in all...
