This paper estimates a theory-guided gravity equation of regional patient ows. In our model, a patient's choice to consult a physician in a particular region depends on a measure of spatial accessibility that accounts for the exact locations of both patients and physicians. Introducing this...

This study investigates the impact of the SAPS (Simplified Area Payment Scheme) on rental land values in seven New EU Member States (NMS). Using the FADN farm level panel data with 20,930 observations from 2004 and 2005 we are able to control for unobserved heterogeneity, simultaneity, and...

In this paper we estimate the income distributional effects of the common agricultural policy (CAP) for farmers and landowners. First, we theoretically analyse the level of farmers' and landowners' gains from coupled and decoupled payments. Second, using a unique farm level panel data set from...

The present paper studies how European integration might affect the migration of workers in the enlarged EU. Unlike the … reduced-form migration models, we base our empirical analysis on the theory of economic geography à la Krugman (1991), which … provides an alternative modelling of migration pull and push factors. Parameters of the theoretical model are estimated …

We use a quantitative model to study the implications of European integration for welfare and migration flows across 1 … percent causing an estimated migration of about 8 million individuals to the European core. This implies that the dismantling …

The present paper studies labour migration in the enlarged EU. Adopting the Krugman’s framework of the New Economic … Geography, we are able to study both the determinants of labour migration, such as market potential, wages, cost of living on … one hand, and labour migration on the other hand simultaneously, which allows us to address important issues facing the …
