In urban areas underground logistical systems - designed as delivery service to provide shops, industrial sites and office locations - may help to relieve the pressure of the road network in particular in the old inner cities which have to deal with increasing traffic congestion. When shops are...

Unemployment rates appear to vary widely at the subregional (e.g. local or provincial) level. Using spatial econometric models for spatial autocorrelation, this paper focuses attention on the spatial structure of regional unemployment disparities of Italian provinces. On the basis of findings...

Transport plays a pivotal role in the dynamics of our society, not only in economic terms but also in a spatial setting. New driving forces such as technologi­cal progress, privatisation and deregulation exert a structuring impact on transport systems and on their related consequences induding...

Estimates of workers’ willingness to pay for nonwage job attributes (e.g., the risk of injury) are usually based on hedonic wage methods. In this study, workers’ marginal willingness to pay for nonwage job attributes is derived from an analysis of job quitting behavior employing discrete...

This paper shows how idiosyncratic shocks, macro-economic complementarities and a reallocation timing effect, can lead to multiple cyclical output equilibria. When reallocating labor from low productivity plants to high productivity plants takes time and effort which cannot be used for normal...
