The problem of competitiveness has becoming one of the main concerns of European governments. This is reflected trough out the Europe 2020 Strategy that includes as key priority the promotion of efficient and productive use of inputs. Differently to other "well-behaved" European "neighbours", in...

The use of input-output analysis for the computation of secondary effects of final demand changes is well-known. These 'final demand effects' can be calculated using technical coefficients and the inverse of the Leontief matrix. This paper offers an alternative to the use of technical...

Economic development is interregional in nature, with economic growth being determined by physical and technological proximity identified by interregional and national cross-border interactions in trade, investments, and knowledge. This report explains the construction of a system of...

Using input–output data from Symmetric Input–Output Tables for the year 2010 and relevant price models, this paper provides empirical estimations of medium- and long-run effects of wage and currency devaluations on international price competitiveness and income distribution for two ‘PIIGS...

This paper uses input–output data from Supply and Use Tables for the year 2010 and provides empirical estimations of the static demand multipliers in a joint production framework for two representative Southern Eurozone economies, i.e., Greece and Spain, and for the Eurozone economy as a...

This study investigates the evolution of the import content of production and exports in Turkey for the 2002-2018 period. Based on 2002 and 2012 input-output tables and a large data set of production and foreign trade, we estimate the production and imported input use for 20 sectors, mainly from...

La presencia de elementos negativos en el vector de inputs primarios en el contexto del marco input-output ha sido considerada un impedimento para la formulación de modelos lineales multisectoriales. Lo cierto es que si se da esta circunstancia, las correspondientes ramas productivas presentan...

Input-output analysts are often confronted with requests for impacts assessments for economic shocks that stretch uncomfortably the assumptions of standard input-output modeling. this paper presents an approach to confronting a subset of these challenges straightforwardly in a way that...

Several procedures for generating interregional commodity flow matrices have been developed in the U.S. in recent years (see, e.g., Canning and Wang in J. Reg. Sci. 45, 539–563, 2005, Jackson et al. in Ann. Reg. Sci. 40, 909–920, 2006, Lindall et al. in J. Reg. Anal. Policy 36, 76–83,...

The current study aims to evaluate the methodology of Input-Output matrices estimation, at basic prices, based on preliminary data from the Brazil’s National Accounts. The same is tested for the year 2005, and the results obtained from input-output matrix (final version), available in IBGE...
