Mind the remoteness! Income disparities across Japanese prefectures
López-Rodríguez, Jesús; Nakamura, Daisuke - In: Estudios de Economía 38 (2011) 2, pp. 393-417
In this paper we analyze the role played by Market access to explain income disparities among Japanese Prefectures for different periods of time. The results of the estimations suggest that 1) Market access plays an important role in the explanation of income disparities in Japan, 2) the effect...

Income disparities in Poland through the lens of economic geography
López Rodríguez, Jesús - 2012
Second nature geography variables are very relevant in the explanation of income disparities across regions within countries and across countries. This paper uses the framework of the New Economic Geography to derive the structural equation which relates nominal wages with a distance weighted...

Second Nature Geography and Regional Income Disparities in Colombia
Lopez-Rodriguez, Jesus - 2009
In this paper, we derive and estimate a New Economic Geography model for the Colombian departments.2 We first derive an econometric specification relating wages to a distance weighted sum of the volumes of economic activities of the surrounding locations. Them, we test our econometric...

On the spatial scale of industrial agglomerations
Mori, Tomoya; Smith, Tony E. - 2015
Standard approaches to studying industrial agglomeration have been in terms of scalar measures of agglomeration within … each industry. But such measures often fail to distinguish spatial scales of agglomeration. In a previous paper, Mori and … agglomeration based on an explicit method for detecting spatial clusters. The first, designated as the global extent of industrial …

"Does employment density death? : towards a new integrated methodology to identify and characterize sub-centres" : ERSA, Regions in motion : breaking the path : 52nd European Congr...
Jaume, Masip Tresserra - 2012
In last decades, the spatial structure of the metropolitan areas has been characterized by an urban dynamics towards a more polynucleated structure, breaking with the paradigm of the monocentric city. The specialized literature has studied these polynucleated urban structures by identifying the...

Spatial Development and Energy Consumption
Safirova, Elena - 2008
Previous literature has suggested that the urban form (i.e., city size, density, and center distribution pattern) influences urban energy consumption. It has been argued that more dense development is likely to result in more energy-efficient and sustainable cities. However, very little is known...

Local Amenities, Commuting Costs and Income Disparities Within Cities
Ubeda, Morgan - 2021
This paper studies the effect of transportation networks on spatial inequalities and redistribution within metropolitan areas. To do so, I build and calibrate a spatial equilibrium model of a city that features non-homotheticities and worker heterogeneity, allowing to capture rich patterns of...
