This paper is a reply to Oosterhaven's reply of the paper A critical comment on Oosterhaven-Stelder net multipliers written by de Mesnard in this issue of The Annals of Regional Science. It is argued that, unlike Oosterhaven's statement, (1) any coefficient must be stable but Oosterhaven-Stelder...

Recently, Oosterhaven and Stelder (OS, 2002) have introduced the operational idea of a 'compensated net multiplier' (CNM) to take into account the double counting that occurs when output replaces final demand as an exogenous entry when the Leontief model is used to evaluate operationally the...

This paper provides a comprehensive discussion on different, interconnected methods of using the system of national accounts to measure the relevance of a country’s wellness sector to its overall economy. Procedures are discussed for using input–output analysis to derive the production and...

This paper presents, in Portuguese, an overview of the input-output theory, originally developed by Wassily Leontief. The first and second chapters present the background of the theory of input-output, placing the work of Leontief in a historical view. Chapter 3 presents the basic theory of...

This paper detects structural similarities among several regions in Chile, in particular those that can be compared to the Magellanic and the Chilean Antarctica region: the regions Tarapaca, Libertador Bernardo O'Higgins Riquelme, Bio- Bio and Los Lagos. This exercise is particularly relevant...

This work provides an extensive overview of the input-output (IO) literature, both theoretical and empirical, dealing with the inherent IO data uncertainty issues. The survey is carried out on the basis of a specific uncertainty technique used, rather than taking a chronological overview...

Most of the comment of de Mesnard applies to a causal interpretation of the net multiplier that is applied to economically impossible exogenous (changes in) total output. This reply shows that this interpretation is incorrect and that his further argumentation is based on a time inconsistent...

Larger Indian firms selling inputs to other firms tend to have more customers, tend to be used more intensively by their customers, and tend to have larger customers. Motivated by these regularities, I propose a novel empirical model of trade featuring endogenous formation of input-output...

The Brazilian integration strategy has been focused on agreements based upon North-South and South-South negotiations. However, this kind of negotiations face serious troubles to be done. Consequently, the option of the internal economic integration might be more viable in terms of social...
