The determinants of national city size distributions
This paper investigates the factors that influence the national distribution of city sizes, using data from both gridded population estimates and nighttime lights. Leveraging a global definition of human settlements, it also accounts for spatial units smaller than traditional urban centers. To address model uncertainty in identifying robust determinants of cross-country variation in urban concentration, the analysis employs Bayesian model averagi…
Comparing city size distributions
This paper compares the size distributions of cities when they are measured using gridded population and nighttime lights (NTLs) data. To do so, we exploit recent and accurate satellite imagery to proxy urban economic activity. Similarly to related studies, our results suggest that population is more equally distributed than lights at the country level. However, and calling assumptions established for urban NTLs into question, our findings do not…
Long-run inequality persistence in the U.S., 1870–2019
Modeling the spread of Covid‐19 in New York City
This paper proposes an ensemble predictor for the weekly increase in the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in the city of New York at zip code level. Within a Bayesian model averaging framework, the baseline is a Poisson regression for count data. The set of covariates includes autoregressive terms, spatial effects, and demographic and socioeconomic variables. Our results for the second wave of the coronavirus pandemic show that these regressors…
Income Inequality and Persistence Changes
The demographic impact of terrorism
This paper studies the persistence of the effects of terrorist attacks on the urban structure at the regional level. With this aim, a dynamic differences-in-differences approach is applied to all the municipalities of the Basque Country and Navarre autonomous communities in Spain during the period 1986–2014. The results show that terrorism had a negative and transitory effect on population growth. We also find that incidents with deaths implied m…
The long-run relationship between R&D and regional knowledge
The long-run relationship between R&D and regional knowledge: the case of France, Germany, Italy and Spain. Regional Studies. This paper incorporates time dependence into a regional knowledge-production function framework. Within this setup, the long-run dynamic behaviour of research and development (R&D) and knowledge is analysed in four European countries – France, Germany, Italy and Spain – using unit-root tests and co-integration techniques. …
Non‐linearities in regional growth
The impact of the American Civil War on city growth
This paper analyses the persistence of the shock caused by the American Civil War on the relative city size distribution of the USA. Two features make the study of this conflict interesting. First, it took place at an earlier stage of the industrialisation and urbanisation processes than those previously analysed in the related literature. Second, the battles were fought in the open field, not in urban areas. In line with previous results for the…
The Wage Gap Between Cooperative and Capitalist Firms
This paper analyses the differences between the wages received by workers in cooperative and capitalist firms in Spain using a sample constructed from administrative data. This paper shows that size and the sign of the wage gap depend on economic sector, type of cooperative and the wage distribution. This approach let us explain some contradictory results obtained in previous literature. Additionally, the wage gap decomposition used let us identi…
The Effects on American Foreign Direct Investment in the United Kingdom from Not Adopting the Euro
The decision of the United Kingdom not to adopt the common European currency can be understood as a policy intervention in a single country within the European Union. The aim of this article is to analyse the consequences of this decision on the foreign direct investment received by this country. This is done by the application of a synthetic control method designed for policy evaluation. As a result, evidence of a significant cost in terms of in…
