Second nature geography and regional income disparities in Colombia

In this paper, we derive and estimate a New Economic Geography model for the Colombian departments. We first derive an econometric specification relating wages to a distance weighted sum of the volumes of economic activities of the surrounding locations. Them, we test our econometric specification w...

En primer lugar derivamos una especificación econométrica que relaciona los niveles de renta en cada localización con la suma ponderada por la distancia del volumen de actividad económica de las localizaciones colindantes. Posteriormente, estimamos la citada especificación con datos de los departamentos colombianos para el periodo 1975-2000. Los resultados empíricos apoyan las predicciones teóricas del modelo, corroborando la importancia del potencial de mercado en la configuración de la estructura espacial de salarios en Colombia.26 páginasapplication/pdfengUniversidad de los Andes, Facultad de Economía, CEDEDocumentos CEDE No. 09 Julio de 2008https://ideas.repec.org/p/col/000089/004983.htmlSecond nature geography and regional income disparities in ColombiaGeografía de segunda naturaleza y disparidades regionales en ColombiaDocumento de trabajoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/workingPaperhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_8042http://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Texthttps://purl.org/redcol/resource_type/WPNew economic geographySpatial structure of wagesMarket accessGeografía económica - ColombiaSalarios - Aspectos económicos - ColombiaMercado laboral - ColombiaR11, R12, R13, R14, F12, F23Facultad de EconomíaPublicationTEXTdcede2008-09.pdf.txtdcede2008-09.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain50101https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/5b381388-c981-4c28-954b-929c6c417932/download7b9c05b97ab9dd3af891aa743a36c8a0MD54THUMBNAILdcede2008-09.pdf.jpgdcede2008-09.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg3367https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/ac6b052f-120a-4324-beb5-540fe2acb332/downloaddefbcba74bd58018d2c1f531dd3cb745MD55ORIGINALdcede2008-09.pdfdcede2008-09.pdfapplication/pdf758582https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/42d8e57d-948b-480d-bc4c-5e083580e93b/download960999acc1d387a263fff2d477e5119aMD511992/8061oai:repositorio.uniandes.edu.co:1992/80612024-06-04 15:44:07.108http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/open.accesshttps://repositorio.uniandes.edu.coRepositorio institucional Sénecaadminrepositorio@uniandes.edu.co
