Large Panel Data Models with Cross-Sectional Dependence: A Survey
Chudik, Alexander; Pesaran, M. Hashem - CESifo - 2013
This paper provides an overview of the recent literature on estimation and inference in large panel data models with cross-sectional dependence. It reviews panel data models with strictly exogenous regressors as well as dynamic models with weakly exogenous regressors. The paper begins with a...

Common Correlated Effects Estimation of Heterogeneous Dynamic Panel Data Models with Weakly Exogenous Regressors
Chudik, Alexander; Pesaran, M. Hashem - CESifo - 2013
This paper extends the Common Correlated Effects (CCE) approach developed by Pesaran (2006) to heterogeneous panel data models with lagged dependent variable and/or weakly ex-ogenous regressors. We show that the CCE mean group estimator continues to be valid but the following two conditions must...

Weak and Strong Cross Section Dependence and Estimation of Large Panels
Chudik, Alexander; Pesaran, M. Hashem; Tosetti, Elisa - CESifo - 2009
This paper introduces the concepts of time-specific weak and strong cross section dependence. A double-indexed process is said to be cross sectionally weakly dependent at a given point in time, t, if its weighted average along the cross section dimension (N) converges to its expectation in...

Sources of Productivity Spillovers: Panel Data Evidence from China
Baltagi, Badi H.; Egger, Peter; Kesina, Michaela - CESifo - 2014
This paper assesses sources of productivity spillovers in China’s electric and electronic manufacturing industry using a rich panel data-set of 25,360 firms observed over the period 2004-2007. This industry is characterized by its important reliance on technology. In particular, the paper...

Trade, Wages, and Profits
Egger, Hartmut; Egger, Peter; Kreickemeier, Udo - CESifo - 2012
This paper formulates a structural empirical model of heterogeneous firms whose workers exhibit fair-wage preferences, leading to a link between a firm’s operating profits and wages of workers employed by this firm. We estimate the parameters of the model in a data-set of five European...

Bohemians, Human Capital, and Regional Economic Growth
Falck, Oliver; Fritsch, Michael; Heblich, Stephan - CESifo - 2009
An emerging literature on the geography of bohemians argues that a region’s lifestyle and cultural amenities explain, at least partly, the unequal distribution of highly qualified people across space, which in turn, explains geographic disparities in economic growth. However, to date, there...

The Tradeoff Between Redistribution and Effort: Evidence from the Field and from the Lab
Buch, Claudia M.; Engel, Christoph - CESifo - 2012
Building on a theoretical model we test the hypothesis that effort choices and preferences for redistribution are simultaneously determined. Using cross-country panel data from the World Value Survey, we find that it is important to model preferences for redistribution and effort choices...

Exchange Rate Misalingment Estimates - Sources of Differences
Cheung, Yin-Wong; Fujii, Eiji - CESifo - 2011
We study the differences of currency misalignment estimates obtained from alternative datasets derived from two International Comparison Program (ICP) surveys. A decomposition exercise reveals that the year 2005 misalignment estimates are substantially affected by the ICP price revision....

Growth, Foreign Direct Investment and Urban Concentrations: Unbundling Spatial Lags
Poelhekke, Steven; Ploeg, Frederick Van der - CESifo - 2008
Cross-country regressions suggest that urbanization and FDI are important drivers of growth. However, it is not clear that primacy eventually hurts growth performance. Since it is tough to interpret cross-country growth regressions, we provide detailed evidence on the determinants of outward FDI...
