This paper investigates the relationship between access to sanitation services and the health conditions of the population in one of Brazil’s regions with the lowest infrastructure levels: the Legal Amazon. Using a dynamic panel model, the study analyzes how access to treated water impacts hospital admissions due to waterborne diseases. The results show that access to treated water reduces such admissions, thereby indicating a need to implement public policies in the fields of both sanitation and health. Our findings suggest that a program should be established to promote basic sanitation for the Legal Amazon with incentives for the private sector to participate, such as subsidies for companies to operate in the region. In addition, a data collection system must be designed to make it feasible to undertake studies aimed at drafting public policies which enable long-term planning.","PeriodicalId":44865,"journal":{"name":"Review of Regional Studies","volume":"138 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-04-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86578348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the case of Mexico, previous studies have documented the role of diverse characteristics in attracting FDI to the country’s states. This study shows that economic complexity - a variable that indicates the productive capabilities or productive knowledge that exist in a given economy's economic structure - can explain the distribution of FDI among Mexican states. Similar to previous studies, we document the spillover effects of economic complexity, i.e., we show how states surrounded by states with a high level of economic complexity tend to receive more FDI. Moreover, we document how FDI flows to manufacturing industries are positively correlated with their level of economic complexity. This result, to the best of our knowledge, has not been documented before in this literature.","PeriodicalId":44865,"journal":{"name":"Review of Regional Studies","volume":"138 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-02-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73145793","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using an education program in India, which targeted educationally backward districts, I study the influence of the program on the change in the rural female literacy rate and the gender gap in the literacy rate. In the estimation of a non-spatial model, the residuals exhibit spatial dependency, and the data suggests the spatial error model or the spatial Durbin error model (SDEM) as the appropriate specification. According to the SDEM estimates, with a one percentage point increase in the educational backwardness of a district, there was a 0.08 percentage point increase in the rural female literacy rate and a 0.02 percentage point decrease in the gender gap in literacy rate. The results imply a small but insignificant influence of the program received by the neighboring districts on the change in rural female literacy rate of a district. Limited financial flexibility and the lack of incentive to engage in a competition is a possible explanation for the absence of strategic interaction between districts.","PeriodicalId":44865,"journal":{"name":"Review of Regional Studies","volume":"17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-02-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88275522","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the few years since that address, the drug crisis has continued to accelerate.

We update Cushing's (2017) discussion with new details regarding the worsening crisis. We then document and discuss the \"regional science\" contributions to the ongoing drug crisis literature.

While urbanization is a key driver for economic growth in many countries, the rural to urban migration rate in India is low, potentially due to a lowering of the gap between urban-rural health, infrastructure, employment opportunities, and economic conditions. Using panel data models, I investigate the relevant determinants of rural to urban migration at the state level in India from 1991 to 2011. Panel data analysis suggests that higher per capita state income and a lower difference between urban to rural literacy rates encourage rural to urban migration. In this context, I suggest that urban job creation, improved urban infrastructure, and management of urban poverty and income inequality are essential to promoting rural to urban migration in India.","PeriodicalId":44865,"journal":{"name":"Review of Regional Studies","volume":"51 1","pages":"17403"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2020-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41335795","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
