European regional convergence in a human capital augmented Solow model
Eckey, Hans-Friedrich (contributor);  … - 2006
In this paper, the process of productivity convergence is investigated for the enlarged European Union using regional (NUTS-2) data. The Solow model extended by human capital is employed as a workhorse. Alternative strategies are proposed to control for spatial effects. All specifications...

Do regions with entrepreneurial neighbors perform better? : A spatial econometric approach for German regions
Pijnenburg, Katharina; Cholodilin, Konstantin Arkadʹevič - 2011
We use a neoclassical production function to analyze the effects of knowledge spillovers via entrepreneurship on economic performance of 337 German districts. To take the spatial dependence structure of the data into account, we estimate a spatial Durbin model. We highlight the importance of the...

Are geese flying by themselves inside China? : An LSTR-SEM approach to income convergence of Chinese counties
Cholodilin, Konstantin Arkadʹevič; Girardin, Eric - 2011
In this paper, we examine beta-convergence of real per-capita income of Chinese counties. We account for both the spatial dependences between counties and the possibility of different convergence regimes. The first feature is captured by the spatial error term, whereas the second one is modeled...
