Occupational change, employer change, internal migration, and earnings

Article Abstract:

Migration status has been confined with occupational change and employer change to help determine the indirect impact of migration on earnings. Based from experimental results, people who migrate either because of occupational change or a change in their employer posted gains in financial status while those who migrate because of change in both departments experienced financial setbacks. Inclusion of several possible factors related to migration has played a vital role in understanding more the relationship of financial gain to related, as well as non-related job migration.

A measure of the geographic concentration in French manufacturing industries

Article Abstract:

A sequential framework for location choices was developed to assess the impact of geography on the location interdependence of firms. Empirical results derived from an analysis involving French manufacturing companies indicated that geographical concentration creates a substantial impact on the economic activities of firms. Three types of highly localized industries were defined, one of which is comprised by extractive companies which determine location depending on the availability of raw materials.

External spillovers, internal spillovers and the geography of production and innovation

Article Abstract:

A novel framework for assessing locations for production and cost-reducing innovations was developed to evaluate the impact of economic integration on locational decisions. The proposed three-location duopoly model assumes that firms are capable of identifying production and innovation locations under Bertrand competition. Experimental data suggest that companies, which experience external knowledge spillover, tend to generate negative profits due to the formation of core-periphery structure.
