The Core‐Periphery Model Under Additively Separable Preferences

Journal of Regional Science, Volume 65, Issue 2, Page 378-402, March 2025.
ABSTRACT This paper reexamines Krugman's core‐periphery model by substituting his constant elasticity of substitution (CES) utility with a general additively separable utility that comprehensively captures the pro‐competitive effect while preserving the income effect.

Telecom Expansion and Internal Migrants in Indian Cities

Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper estimates the impact of mobile phone service expansion on migration to and between cities of India during 2001–2011. We show that the number of cross‐state migrants living in urban areas of India increased significantly due to telecommunications infrastructure growth. The increased migration reflects better labor and marriage market

When Infrastructure Pushes Residents Out: High‐Speed Rail and Tourism Outflows

Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the impact of high‐speed rail (HSR) connectivity on both inbound and outbound tourism inflows. Leveraging the opening of a new HSR line connecting a northern Spanish region with mainland Spain, we employ a triple difference‐in‐differences design combined with inverse probability weighting (IPW) to evaluate the causal effect

The Cost of Convenience: A Hedonic Approach to Travel Time Valuation and Cost‐Benefit Analysis

Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel revealed‐preference approach to estimating the value of travel time (VTT) and calculating consumer surplus for the economic evaluation of transport infrastructure. Departing from traditional stated‐preference models, we derive time valuations by linking residential rental transactions in Greater Sydney to employment

Local Crime Spillover Onto Public–Private Partnership Financing Commitment: Do Urban Proximity and Local Affluence Matter?

Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While the relationship between public infrastructure and crime location choices is well‐studied in criminology, the impact of crime as a spillover externality on public–private partnership (PPP) infrastructure financing remains unexplored. Leveraging a data set of 542 Private Finance Initiative (PFI)‐funded infrastructures in England and Wales

Dynamic Probit Models With Network Interdependence and Unobserved Heterogeneity With an Application to Multinational‐Firm Participation in China

Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In many areas of regional/spatial economics, we are faced with analyzing discrete dynamic choice problems of economic agents interacting with some network structure through general equilibrium, input‐output links, or strategic interaction. Stochastic estimating equations for such problems can be difficult for many practitioners to estimate ...

When Integration Backfires: Examining the Effects of Mandatory Inter‐Municipal Cooperation on Local Housing Markets

Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper estimates the causal effect of mandatory inter‐municipal cooperation on local service provision and housing markets. I examine Italy's 2010 reform, which required small municipalities to jointly manage core administrative functions, and identify its impact using a fuzzy difference‐in‐discontinuity design.

The Great British Productivity Puzzle and Regional Industries: A Dynamic Multilevel Spatial Frontier Analysis

Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using two approaches, we contribute to sub‐national economic performance measurement by netting out the influence of a region's performance on its industries. The first approach measures performance using technical efficiency and involves introducing the first multilevel spatial stochastic frontier model.

Lessons on State and Local Income Taxes From the Twenty‐First Century and Challenges for the Future

Public Budgeting &Finance, EarlyView.
Abstract I survey recent research on subnational income tax policy, arguing that a defining feature is geography. Geographic boundaries limit the power of subnational governments to tax people and activities. The article discusses where income should be taxed and the effects of these tax rules on the interjurisdictional mobility of people and jobs.
