Abstract

ABSTRACT This article investigates the relationships among skilled human capital, skilled wages, and growing early-stage (GE) business activity at the level of functional regions in Chile, and assesses the role of external and local skilled human capital accretion. Based on theories of occupational-choice and heterogeneous entrepreneurship in economics, we estimate count-data econometric models of the regional number of growing early-stage businesses that account for the endogeneity of skilled wages. Skilled human capital accretion increases regional growing early-stage businesses activity, while skilled wages deter it. Changes in local skilled human capital explain regional differences in growing early-stage businesses activity, whereas the effect of changes in external skilled human capital is less clear.

熟练的人力资本增加，熟练的工资和不断增长的早期企业的地理位置

摘要本文调查了智利功能区层面的技能人力资本、技能工资和成长中的早期商业活动之间的关系，并评估了外部和本地技能人力资本积累的作用。基于经济学中的职业选择和异质创业理论，我们估计了考虑技能工资内生性的早期企业增长区域数量的统计数据计量模型。技能人力资本的增加增加了地区不断增长的早期企业活动，而技能工资则阻止了这一增长。当地技能人力资本变化解释了早期企业活动增长的地区差异，而外部技能人力资本变动的影响则不太清楚。

期刊介绍： Spatial Economic Analysis is a pioneering economics journal dedicated to the development of theory and methods in spatial economics, published by two of the world"s leading learned societies in the analysis of spatial economics, the Regional Studies Association and the British and Irish Section of the Regional Science Association International. A spatial perspective has become increasingly relevant to our understanding of economic phenomena, both on the global scale and at the scale of cities and regions. The growth in international trade, the opening up of emerging markets, the restructuring of the world economy along regional lines, and overall strategic and political significance of globalization, have re-emphasised the importance of geographical analysis.
