According to the National Accounting Systems proposed by United Nations (1993) and Eurostat (1996), use and make (or supply) matrices should be measured before goods and services are conveyed to the markets (basic values). Actually, the make table is defined in basic values (excluding trade and...

Economic complexity can be defined as the level of interdependence between the component parts of an economy. In input-output systems, intersectoral connectedness is a crucial feature of analysis, and there are many different methods for measuring it. Most of the measures, however, have...

Our main goal in this paper is to classify productive sectors according to the combination of two effects. The first effect lies in the change of their external dependency on imported inputs. The second effect is related to the change of their ability to generate value-added by unit of final...

In this paper, we present a hybrid regional input–output model that enables us to compute the intensity measures of CO2 emissions in the state of Minas Gerais. The analysis uses a 2005 input–output matrix and presents the disaggregated data for 35 sectors. The results suggest that the...

In general terms key sectors analysis aims at identifying the role, or impact, that the existence of a productive sector has in the economy. Quite a few measures, indicators and methodologies of varied complexity have been proposed in the literature, from multiplier sums to extraction methods,...

Las matrices de Contabilidad Social constituyen una importante base de datos que proporcionan información rele¬vante sobre la estructura económica y social de un área para un determinado período de tiempo. Esta información permite realizar un análisis integral de la estructura productiva...

Using input-output analysis this paper presents for 1980 a comparative analysis of the Sugar and Alcohol Sectors for the State of Minas Gerais and Brazil. To do so, it was used: the concepts of pure linkages indexes, as well as the Hisrchman / Rasmussen indexes, to define key sectors; the notion...

Este artículo presenta un análisis aplicado para la economía andaluza para el periodo comprendido entre 1990 y 2005. Tomando como base de datos las Matrices de Contabilidad Social, se determinarán los sectores clave de la economía utilizando tanto métodos clásicos de detección como...

Using a statistical model of an evolving multiplex network, we study tie formation in global production chains within and across developed countries, their trade activities with developing economies in the intermediate goods market, and the mutual dependencies between these relationships. Our...

Many economic models (e.g., computable general equilibrium models, econometric input–output models) revolve around a matrix of technical coefficients. However, these matrices can be estimated only once every 5 years as long as they are calculated from input–output tables and these are only...
