What makes cities happy? Factors contributing to life satisfaction in European cities
The purpose of this study is to identify the main factors of city life satisfaction across Europe. Data come from the recent fifth survey on quality of life in European cities and cover 83 cities located in the European Union, the European Free Trade Association countries, the United Kingdom, the Western Balkan Region and Turkey. In addition to running classical econometric analysis, we quantify the relative importance of the various determinants…
Why are cities less opposed to European integration than rural areas? Factors affecting the Eurosceptic vote by degree of urbanization
Both Marshall and Jacobs were Right
This article adds to the empirical evidence on the impact of agglomeration externalities on regional growth along three main dimensions. On the basis of data on 259 Europe NUTS2 (Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics) regions and 15 NACE (Nomenclature statistique des Activités économiques dans la Communauté Européenne) 1.1 2-digit industries for the period 1990–2007, we show that agglomeration externalities are stronger in technology-i…
Concentration of Manufacturing and Service Sector Activities in Italy
De Dominicis L., Arbia G. and De Groot H. L. F. Concentration of manufacturing and service sector activities in Italy: accounting for spatial dependence and firm size distribution, Regional Studies. Empirical analysis of the spatial distribution of economic activity on a discrete space is based on measures that suffer from a series of drawbacks. A methodological advance is proposed here in two respects. First, the analysis is extended to take spa…
A Meta‐analysis on the Relationship Between Income Inequality and Economic Growth
In recent years there is a growing interest in determining the impact of inequality on economic growth. Theoretical papers as well as empirical applications have, however, produced controversial results. Although there is a considerable part of the literature that considers inequality detrimental to growth, more recent studies have challenged this result and found a positive effect of inequality on growth. In this paper, we provide a contribution…
