This paper looks at the hypothesis of conditional convergence of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita for a set of eighteen Latin American countries establishing a positive link with the growth rate of those economies. To that purpose, Ø-convergence, σ-convergence and Ú-convergence...

Es objeto de discusión si la política de incentivos destinada al sector minero es o no conveniente. Los partidarios defienden que gracias a esta los municipios tienen mayores oportunidades para desarrollarse, mientras que los detractores argumentan que no tiene sentido orientar recursos hacia...

Based on the World Input-Output Matrix 2016 estimated by Timmer et al. (2016), the Hypothetical Extraction Method is applied in a multi-country context to estimate Mexico's gross output and value added linked to the economic activity of the United States; and then the gross output and value...

We use the national Input-Output Matrix 2012 of INEGI and Flegg's approach to estimate four Regional Input-Output Matrices (RIOM) applying Banco de Mexico's regionalization. The RIOM are employed to evaluate the effects on gross output, value added and employment at the regional level resulting...

This research presents a methodology to identify regional clusters based on the estimation of location's coefficients and measures of spatial autocorrelation. Local Moran I index is used as a measure of spatial autocorrelation, which allows to obtain a more varied typology of regional clusters....

In recent times, Sraffian Supermultiplier Model (SSM) (Freitas & Serrano, 2015; Serrano, 1995; Serrano et al., 2019) has become prominent in both theoretical and empirical discussions within the demand-led-growth framework. The SSM has three distinctive features: the rate of growth of output is...

This paper presents an analysis of the implications it has on standard growth models assume an alternative hypothesis to the exponential growth of the population and how modeling time can alter the dynamic behavior of these models. An extension (in continuous time and discrete time) of the...

A conflict of Ricardian type is arised. Landowners produce exportable salary-goods and consume imported luxury goods. Small industrialists produce non-tradable manufactures with sunk costs by importing capital goods. Employees consume exportable goods and non-tradable manufactures. Quantities...
