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 …

Spatial Patterns of Technology Diffusion: An Empirical Analysis using TFP
Abreu, Maria; Groot, Henri L.F. de; Florax, Raymond J.G.M. - Tinbergen Instituut - 2004
In this paper we employ techniques developed in spatial econometrics to analyse spatial patterns of technology diffusion, to detect clusters and to estimate theoretical models that incorporate space explicitly. These techniques correct for misspecifications resulting from the omission of spatial...

A Multi-Scenario Forecast of Urban Change: A Study on Urban Growth in the Algarve
Vaz, Eric de Noronha; Nijkamp, Peter; Painho, Marco; … - Tinbergen Institute - 2011
The Algarve region in Portugal is often considered as one of the most appealing regions for tourism in the country. Its attractive location and moderate climate have since the mid-1960s brought increasing economic prosperity. As a result of the development of mass tourism, available land-use...
