In this paper, we examine the impact of institutional quality on the returns on key drivers of economic growth in 230 European Union (EU) NUTS-2 regions from 2009 to 2017. To estimate region-specific elasticities, we employ a latent class modelling approach, considering the quality of government...

Solow (1956) has made an essential contribution to the Neo-classical growth approach through the economic convergence …. Convergence could occur either among a group of economies with the same steady states or within regions in which their fundamental … dynamics differ, and thus they exhibit multiple steady states. This study aims to investigate convergence with respect to GDP …

Transport costs are a crucial element of any spatial economic model. Surprisingly, good transport cost estimates at a detailed spatial level for the EU are not readily available. In this paper we address this issue by estimating a novel dataset of road freight transport costs for goods for the...

In this study, we employ the pairwise stochastic convergence approach to identify the pairs of NUTS2 regions for all 28 … stochastic convergence trajectories to assess the role of first nature geography, which is defined by variations in physical …, in causing economic growth convergence patterns. We find that western and northern parts of Europe have higher pairwise …

We employ the spatial dynamic general equilibrium model RHOMOLO to estimate the economic impact of the 2021-2027 Cohesion Policy in Bulgarian NUTS-2 regions and analyse the implications for growth and development in Bulgaria. The main investment areas covered by the policy fall into the...
