  • Spanish Regional Unemployment

    Disentangling the Sources of Hysteresis

    Series series Economics and Finance (R0)
    This work investigates the time series properties of the unemployment rate of the Spanish regions over the period 1976-2011. For that purpose, the authors employ the PANIC procedures of Bai and Ng (2004), which allows to decompose the observed unemployment rate series into common factor and idiosyncratic components. This enables the authors to identify the exact source behind the hysteretic ... Read more

  • Long-run Convergence in Greenhouse Gases, Reactive Compounds, Aerosol Precursors and Aerosols

    An Application of Panel Analysis of Nonstationarity in Idiosyncratic and Common Components to OECD and BRICS Countries

    Series series Economics and Finance (R0)
    This book examines the presence of stochastic and deterministic convergence in ten series of greenhouse gases, aerosol precursors, and aerosols across 29 industrialized and emerging countries from 1820 to 2018. The author utilizes the Panel Analysis of Nonstationarity in Idiosyncratic and Common Components (PANIC) method for the empirical exercise. The analysis reveals strong evidence ofstochastic ...

  • Convergence in Output and Its Sources Among Industrialised Countries

    A Cross-Country Time-Series Perspective

    Series series Economics and Finance (R0)
    This book investigates the existence of stochastic and deterministic convergence of real output per worker and the sources of output (physical capital per worker, human capital per worker, total factor productivity –TFP– and average annual hours worked) in 21 OECD countries over the period 1970-2011. Towards this end, the authors apply a large battery of panel unit root and stationarity tests, all ... Read more
