The impact of regional absorptive capacity on spatial knowledge spillovers

Caragliu, Andrea; Nijkamp, Peter - 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...

Spatio-temporal analysis of regional systems : a multiregional spatial vector autoregressive model for Spain

Ramajo Hernández, Julián; Márquez, Miguel A.; … - 2013

This paper contributes to the recent literature in spatial econometrics that focuses on space-time data modeling implementing a multi-location time-series statistical framework to analyze a regional system. Therefore, taking as a point of departure the Global Vector Autoregression approach...

Schumpeterian growth with technological interdependence : an application to US states

Deeken, Tim - 2015

In this paper, the Schumpeterian growth model developed by Ertur and Koch (2011) that includes spatial interactions between units of observation working via R&D spillovers is presented in detail. The implications of this model and three additional growth models with and without spatial...

What can the EMU's peripheral countries learn from regional growth?

Aiginger, Karl; Firgo, Matthias; Huber, Peter - 2013

The experiences of 259 regions in 21 European countries with within country GDP per capita and labour productivity growth suggest that variables associated with pro-active, growth oriented strategies are consistently more important predictors of successful regional development than variables...

Sectoral diversification as insurance against economic instability

Kluge, Jan - 2015

This paper examines the extent to which sectoral diversification can act as an insurance mechanism against fluctuations in regional gross value added growth rates. I apply portfolio theory to the growth-instability properties of German districts. Furthermore, I define a comprehensive...

Cross-sectional space-time modeling using ARNN(p, n) processes

Kakamu, Kazuhiko; Polasek, Wolfgang - 2007

We suggest a new class of cross-sectional space-time models based on local AR models and nearest neighbors using distances between observations. For the estimation we use a tightness prior for prediction of regional GDP forecasts. We extend the model to the model with exogenous variable model...
