Abstract

This paper seeks to contribute to the empirical evidence on existing estimations of the factors partici¬pating in shadow economy. The estimations correspond to the period 1999-2015, with a sample of 82 countries. The paper examines the effect of the Hofstede cultural variables, along with other socioeconomic fac¬tors on the shadow economy, and incorporates the spatial variable as an additional explanatory variable. The estimation carried out as a novelty uses a panel model that incorporates the spatial filter technique. Our study confirms that national culture and how developed a country is are significant factors in ex¬plaining the different levels of shadow economies.

影子经济与民族文化:一个空间视角

本文试图为影子经济中参与因素的现有估计提供经验证据。这些估计数对应于1999-2015年期间，样本为82个国家。本文考察了霍夫斯泰德文化变量以及其他社会经济因素对影子经济的影响，并将空间变量作为一个额外的解释变量。作为一种新颖性进行的估计使用了包含空间滤波器技术的面板模型。我们的研究证实，民族文化和一个国家的发达程度是解释影子经济不同水平的重要因素。
