Convergence in Output and Its Sources Among Industrialised Countries
Author: Macarena Hernández Salmerón
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319136356
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
This book investigates the existence of stochastic and deterministic convergence of real output per worker and the sources of output (physical capital per worker, human capital per worker, total factor productivity –TFP– and average annual hours worked) in 21 OECD countries over the period 1970-2011. Towards this end, the authors apply a large battery of panel unit root and stationarity tests, all of which are robust to the presence of cross-sectional dependence. The evidence fails to provide clear-cut evidence of convergence dynamics either in real GDP per worker or in the series of the sources of output. Due to some limitations associated with second-generation panel unit root and stationarity tests, the authors further use the more flexible PANIC approach which provides evidence that real GDP per worker, real physical capital per worker, human capital and average annual hours exhibit some degree of deterministic convergence, whereas TFP series display a high degree of stochastic convergence.

Regional Analysis and Policy
Author: Harry Coccossis
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3790820865
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 387
Book Description
Regional development is attracting the attention of policy makers and scientists again, as regions, urban centers and rural areas, experience substantial pressures, particularly in Europe, as a consequence of globalization and geopolitical changes which lead to changes in spatial structures and dynamics. This book is based on the contributions of Greek regional science research presented at the 2006 Congress of the European Regional Science Association at Volos, Greece. The contributions selected to be presented in this book address these changes offering a fresh look into regional development. They provide an overview of regional development concerns from Greek regional scientists but the issues discussed pervade Greek particularities and stimulate thinking about regional science, regional development and regional policy in the early twenty-first century.

The evolution of regional labor market disparities
Author: Daniel Werner
Publisher: wbv Media GmbH & Company KG
ISBN: 3763940766
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 279
Book Description
Zahlreiche Länder, so auch Deutschland, zeichnen sich durch ausgeprägte regionale Disparitäten auf dem Arbeitsmarkt aus. Regionalökonomische Studien liefern unterschiedlichste Ansätze, um die Existenz solcher Unterschiede zu erklären. Aber nur wenige Arbeiten geben Aufschluss über die Dynamik regionaler Arbeitsmarktdisparitäten: Nehmen diese im Zeitablauf zu, verringern sie sich oder bleiben sie stabil? Auch blenden die bisherigen Studien aus, welche Rolle Beschäftigtengruppen mit unterschiedlichem Qualifikationsniveau in diesem Prozess spielen. Die Arbeit von Daniel Werner schließt diese Lücken. Detailliert untersucht Werner zudem die Anpassungsprozesse nach regionalen Arbeitsmarktschocks. Sein Fazit: Die Mobilität der Arbeitskräfte - und hier insbesondere das Pendeln - ist der wichtigste Ausgleichsmechanismus.
