Innovation, heterogeneous firms and the region
Innovation, heterogeneous firms and the region: evidence from Spain. Regional Studies. This paper investigates the role of regional factors in innovation performance, controlling for firms’ absorptive capacity and other sources of firm heterogeneity. The findings for a sample of firms in Spain support the hypothesis that regional determinants matter, though their role is subtler than is frequently assumed. Rather than exerting a direct influence …
Firm exports, innovation and the regional dimension in Spain
Firm exports, innovation and the regional dimension in Spain. Regional Studies. Firm-level data are used to estimate the effect of product and process innovations on firms’ exports in each Spanish NUTS-2 region. Results show that the effect of innovation on exports is far from regionally uniform. The gap in the propensity to export between innovative and non-innovative firms, conditional to other sources of firm heterogeneity, is shown to be part…
Double Penalty in Returns to Education
This article examines the returns to education taking into consideration the existence of educational mismatches in the formal and informal employment of a developing country. Results show that the returns of surplus, required and deficit years of schooling are different in the two sectors. Moreover, they suggest that these returns vary along the wage distribution, and that the pattern of variation differs for formal and informal workers. In part…

The regional distribution of unemployment
Human Capital and Regional Wage Gaps
n This paper uses micro-level data to analyse the effect of human capital on regional wage differentials. The results for the set of Spanish regions confirm that they differ in the endowment of human capital, but also that the return that individuals obtain from it varies sharply across regions. Regional heterogeneity in returns is especially intense in the case of education, particularly when it is considered its effect on the employability of i…
