Misspecification in Linear Spatial Regression Models

Florax, Raymond J.G.M.; Nijkamp, Peter - Tinbergen Institute - 2003

Spatial effects are endemic in models based on spatially referenced data. The increased awareness of the relevance of spatial interactions, spatial externalities and networking effects among actors, evoked the area of spatial econometrics. Spatial econometrics focuses on the specification and...

The Impact of Regional Absorptive Capacity on Spatial Knowledge Spillovers

Caragliu, Andrea; Nijkamp, Peter - Tinbergen Institute - 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...

A Meta-Analysis of Beta-Convergence: The Legendary Two-Percent

Abreu, Maria; Groot, Henri L.F. de; Florax, Raymond J.G.M. - Tinbergen Instituut - 2005

The topic of convergence is at the heart of a wide-ranging debate in the growth literature. Empirical studies of … convergence differ widely in their theoretical backgrounds, empirical specifications and in their treatment of cross …-sectional heterogeneity. Despite these differences, a rate of convergence of about 2% has been found under a variety of different conditions …

Territorial Capital and Regional Growth: Increasing Returns in Cognitive Knowledge Use

Capello, Roberta; Caragliu, Andrea; Nijkamp, Peter - Tinbergen Instituut - 2009

This discussion paper resulted in an article in Tijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie (2011). Volume 102(4), pages 385-405. Knowledge drives the growth of nations and regions in a competitive space-economy. Hence, we would expect a strong correlation between investments in R&D,...

Territorial Capital and Regional Growth: Increasing Returns in Cognitive Knowledge Use

Capello, Roberta; Caragliu, Andrea; Nijkamp, Peter - Tinbergen Institute - 2009

Knowledge drives the growth of nations and regions in a competitive space-economy. Hence, we would expect a strong correlation between investments in R&D, knowledge and learning processes, on the one hand, and productivity increases, on the other. However, the empirical evidence shows consistent...
