Is There Convergence of Russia's Regions? Exploring the Empirical Evidence: 1995–2010
Lehmann, Hartmut; Silvagni, Maria Giulia - 2013
This paper analyzes convergence in per capita gross regional product of Russia's regions during the period 1995 …-2010, when regional data are available. Using a panel regression framework we find no evidence for beta-convergence. Instead we … regional product confirm this outcome as do non-parametric estimates of convergence, namely estimates using Markov transition …

Sources for regional unemployment disparities in Germany: Lagged adjustment processes, exogenous shocks or both?
Kunz, Marcus - 2009
Die Studie untersucht Veränderungen der Arbeitslosenquote in westdeutschen Kreisen im Zeitraum 1992-2004 mit Hilfe der Chain Reaction Theory of unemployment (CRT). Die Schätzungen zeigen, dass sowohl Anpassungsprozesse als auch exogene Schocks für die Veränderungen verantwortlich waren....

Monocentric cities, endogenous agglomeration, and unemployment disparities
Zierahn, Ulrich - 2012
The literature on the wage curve provides considerable evidence in favor of a negative relationship between unemployment and wages. It is thus often seen as a refutation of the Harris-Todaro model, who point to a positive relationship. This paper shows that both strands of literature are special...

This paper investigates the income convergence among Russian regions in the period 1998-2006. It makes two major … contributions to rather extensive literature on the regional convergence in Russia. First, it identifies spatial regimes using the … exploratory spatial data analysis. Second, it examines the impact of spatial effects on the convergence process. Our results show …
