This paper evaluates the impact of accessibility on the productivity of Spanish manufacturing firms. We suggest the use of accessibility indicators to workers and commodities, integrating transport, land use, and individual components in their measurement, and computing real distances or...

This paper presents an exploratory analysis of the relation between where a firm is located and its productivity. The analysis distinguishes two location characteristics measured at the municipality level: local agglomeration measured by population density and access to markets captured through...

Espasa and Mayo-Burgos (2013) provide consistent forecasts for an aggregate economic indicator and its basic components as well as for useful sub-aggregates. To do this, they develop a procedure based on single-equation models that includes the restrictions arisen from the fact that some...

Examining China’s manufacturing and transportation, we analyze how rapid expressway-network expansion fostered market access and industrial development. A domestic-trade model generates the market-access formula, estimatable equations, and economics for empirical findings. An estimation of...

This paper deals with the effects of cross-border transport infrastructure in the presence of agglomeration economies. Cross-border infrastructure is more likely to increase than to decrease inequalities between and within regions, and has not helped regional convergence in Europe....
