Abstract

The aim of the paper is to assess the causes of spatial variations in labour productivity of Italian regions using the gravity model of economic growth. The model is an extension of Robert Solow’s economic growth model. The authors calibrate the model parameters using historical data and carry out numerical simulations of the long-run equilibrium states of the model. The scenarios considered in the paper vary in forecast investment rates, employment growth rates and urbanization rates. To achieve the full convergence in labour productivity, it is necessary to maintain higher investment rates in the south of the country than in Lombardy (by about 4-11%), and to keep investment rates in central and northern Italy at a similar level as in Lombardy. The fall in investment has affected the poorest regions, southern Italy, the most, followed by central Italy and the richest regions of the north of the country the least

意大利劳动生产率地区多样性的决定因素

本文旨在利用经济增长引力模型评估意大利各地区劳动生产率空间差异的原因。该模型是罗伯特-索洛经济增长模型的延伸。作者利用历史数据对模型参数进行了校准，并对模型的长期均衡状态进行了数值模拟。文中考虑的情景在预测投资率、就业增长率和城市化率方面各不相同。要实现劳动生产率的完全趋同，意大利南部的投资率必须高于伦巴第大区（约 4-11%），意大利中部和北部的投资率必须与伦巴第大区保持在类似水平。投资下降对意大利南部最贫困地区的影响最大，其次是意大利中部，而对北部最富裕地区的影响最小。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
