Heterogeneity in performance of science and technology parks in China: Is there “club” convergence?
Papers in Regional Science, Volume 102, Issue 6, Page 1145-1167, December 2023., 2023 Abstract This study investigates determinants of science and technology parks (STPs) performance in China. We estimate dynamic panel‐data models on a sample comprising 53 STPs for 2008–2018. Foreign direct investment and human capital impact labour productivity and innovation of STPs and explain differences in performance among them.

Beyond productivity slowdown: Quality, pricing and resource reallocation in regional competitiveness
Papers in Regional Science, Volume 101, Issue 6, Page 1307-1330, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Labour productivity change at constant prices is the mainstream indicator of regional competitiveness. However, it hides and overlooks some relevant sources of competitiveness that may partly explain the Solow paradox. First, it mixes productivity improvements from technological progress with those from relocating activities to more productive

Direct and indirect effects of universities on European regional productivity
Papers in Regional Science, Volume 101, Issue 5, Page 1105-1133, October 2022., 2022 Abstract Universities are fundamental in driving economic performance as they generate human capital, research and knowledge diffusion. We propose a novel analysis by investigating their effects on European regions' total factor productivity (TFP) over the period 2000–2016.

Au revoir Paris! Spanish regions closer to the EU average and further away from the leaders
Regional Science Policy &Practice, Volume 14, Issue 5, Page 1133-1157, October 2022., 2022 Abstract This paper confirms that Spanish regions in 2015 were closer to the EU average in labour productivity than in 2000, but further away from the richest regions such as Île de France. A dynamic shift‐share analysis at a 10‐industry level of disaggregation shows that the main driver of convergence with the EU average is catch‐up in labour ...

Biotropica, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 930-940, May 2021., 2021 We applied an approach based on indicator plant species to estimate and map soil base cation concentration and its variability at Estación Biológica Quebrada Blanco. We found that soils in the study area are relatively cation‐poor, in a western Amazonian context, which probably translates into low primary productivity.

Does population decline lead to a “populist voting mark‐up”? A case study of the Netherlands
Regional Science Policy &Practice, Volume 13, Issue 2, Page 279-301, April 2021., 2021 Abstract The main thesis of this paper is that people in areas of (expected) population decline vote more populist to express their discontent about the current and future state of their place of residence. In many ways a “populist voting mark‐up” could be expected, as declining areas often are associated with being forgotten, fomenting societal ...
