To answer this question, Céreq's Génération 2010 survey was used to examine the impact of Employment Zone (EZ) characteristics on wages, particularly through interviews conducted three and seven years after these individuals left the school system. An estimate based on a multi-level model confirms that individual characteristics largely determine the level of pay. However, the characteristics of the EZ also significantly influence pay trends, with the effect of the area being much greater for mobile individuals. In addition, individuals’ career paths within territories leave a lasting impact on their salary progression: the characteristics of the EZ in which they resided in 2013 still exert influence on their salaries in 2017. The proposed analysis also reveals distinct effects based on qualifications and mobility. Territorial inequalities are more pronounced for less mobile graduates, whereas the most mobile graduates can leverage these differences to maximise the returns on their education. However, using data spanning 7 years, it becomes evident that this effect diminishes with repeated territorial mobility. The uniqueness of this article is further underscored by the presentation of results through the cartographic transposition of econometric findings.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51458,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Regional Science","volume":"104 3","pages":"Article 100098"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143934831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results reveal that, in addition to the first demographic dividend – evidenced by the contribution of working-age population relative to the total population to economic growth – the second dividend, driven by savings and education, has a significant impact on regional economic growth. Savings, treated as an endogenous variable, proved to be crucial in mitigating the effects of population aging and promoting sustainable development. The study also highlights the importance of local spatial interactions between MCAs, suggesting that public policies aimed at promoting savings, human capital formation, and productive inclusion are essential to maximize the benefits of demographic dividends.

We know that cities are host to organizations of varying size and prevalence, but are these conditions important to urban system dynamics? This article presents volatility in patenting as a novel instrument for distinguishing between cities reliant on many or few organizations. Volatility is the standard deviation of a city’s inter-annual patenting growth rate over a period. We attest an inverse-size hypothesis between volatility and metropolitan size -- as metropolitan size increases volatility decays. This hypothesis belongs to a family of urban scaling power laws, but our approach is distinctive in linking invention volatility, city size, and the organization of technological progress. A focus on volatility facilitates an unraveling of intertwined place attributes and organizational characteristic. Place attributes include the level of engagement in invention and the growth rate of patenting by resident inventors. Organizational characteristics pertain to patentee type with an emphasis on the proportion of grants in a city to corporate champions, individual inventors, universities, and Federal agencies. Results show that while place attributes are influential beyond the largest metropolitan areas, organizational characteristics are key to understanding volatility in big cities.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51458,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Regional Science","volume":"104 3","pages":"Article 100095"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143948605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Similarly, a possible future conflict between China and Taiwan could lead to substantial disruptions in the availability of high-tech components and other goods produced by Taiwan that are widely used in manufacturing worldwide. It is necessary to understand and proactively address such potential supply chain vulnerabilities for critical goods and services. This paper applies a dynamic nonequilibrium model to identify the forward and backward dependencies of individual industrial, manufacturing, service, and energy sectors in a multi-regional context. The model tracks the macroeconomic variables of economies from their initial equilibrium state into a nonequilibrium stationary state, and quantifies their susceptibility, resilience, and recovery to shocks in the networked economic system. Through this analysis, the paper examines the impact of excluding Taiwan from global economic networks, revealing substantial impacts on major economies and sectors essential to the operating of the global economy. The approach presented and empirically tested enables policymakers and stakeholders to proactively use data-driven insights to anticipate future outcomes and reduce disruption risks.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51458,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Regional Science","volume":"104 3","pages":"Article 100094"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143816444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Identification of this relationship and its theoretical justification are politically crucial to shed light on prospective policies for urbanization and regionalization. Thus, the aim of this study is to investigate the impact of polycentricity/monocentricity on the regional resilience of Turkish (Nuts-2) regions against the global financial crisis in 2008/09. This paper also identifies the channels through which it can influence resilience. Through the application of a rich set of empirical tools, including computation of monocentricity degree, resistance, recovery, and adaptability indexes based on national and regional business cycle turning points, LOESS, RIDGE regressions, and inferential mediation tests, three main conclusions were obtained. First, polycentric regions were evidently more resistant to the crisis compared to monocentric morphologies; the later were more industrialized and open to trade, which made them more vulnerable to the crisis. Second, polycentric spatial structures were found to recover more quickly compared to monocentric regions. Third, monocentric regions clearly adapt better to long-term trajectories. In sum, the well-known strategy of the European Union rooted in “polycentric development” can still be valid for the purposes such as resisting to and recovering from economic disruptions. However, in the long-run, polycentrilization can hardly be seen as an optimal strategy, particularly in the context of adapting to the future trajectories.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51458,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Regional Science","volume":"104 3","pages":"Article 100089"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143807493","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a dose–response framework and province-level monthly data on online job postings (NUTS3), we find a predominantly non-linear, negative relationship between COVID-19 exposure — measured by the contagion rate — and labour demand growth. However, at high exposure levels, a positive effect emerges, driven by increased demand for essential roles in Northern Italy. Our findings reveal significant regional disparities. Southern provinces experienced sharper declines in labour demand, despite lower exposure levels, reflecting their weaker economic structures and reliance on non-essential jobs. Conversely, Northern provinces with high exposure levels sustained a higher ratio of essential-to-non-essential vacancies, demonstrating greater economic resilience during the crisis. This study contributes to the literature by examining the underexplored effects of COVID-19 on labour demand in a European context, positioning Italy as a critical case study. It emphasises the pivotal role of essential jobs in mitigating economic disruption and highlights the Italian labour market’s non-linear responses to shocks and regional inequalities, offering insights into how sudden crises shape labour dynamics.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51458,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Regional Science","volume":"104 2","pages":"Article 100083"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143402999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
