Spatial Agglomeration of MNEs : The Role of Information Externalities and Knowledge Spillovers
Mariotti, Sergio; Piscitello, Lucia; Elia, Stefano - 2015
This study suggests a model for the agglomerative behaviour of MNEs with local competitors. Relying on foreign MNEs’ spatial distribution across 686 Italian Local Labor Systems, we find that MNEs’ locational behaviour is influenced by (i) informational externalities, giving rise to...

Regional integration and economic development : an empirical approach
Dion, David-Pascal - 2004
This paper contributes to the empirical literature by providing a quantitative measurement of the influence of regional trade integration on productivity. For this purpose we address the link between trade and productivity thanks to knowledge spillovers in a multi-country model. The...

Trade, growth and geography : a synthetic approach
Dion, David-Pascal - 2004
Economic integration affects economic development through two main channels: growth and localization of the economic activities. The theories of endogenous growth and economic geography enable us to understand these mechanisms. We study in this paper their similarities and specificities before...

Regional integration and economic development : a theoretical approach
Dion, David-Pascal - 2004
We use a model of combined endogenous growth and economic geography to study the impact of regional economic integration on the member and non-member countries of a regional union. Regional integration affects growth through interregional technology diffusion symbolized by knowledge spillovers...
