The study introduces a skill-based framework that moves beyond traditional education-based human capital measures, incorporating an index that captures occupational skill complexity. Our results indicate evidence of conditional skill convergence, with social skills exhibiting the fastest convergence rate, followed by cognitive and motor skills. Spatial spillover effects are significant, reinforcing the role of geographic proximity in skill development dynamics.

Among its determinants at the individual and more aggregate level, space-specific factors, including the quality of regional institutions, may affect its geographical breakdown. In this paper we exploit data covering 181 European cities for the period 2008–2017, examining the spatial distribution of the within-city digital divide and how this relates to several local characteristics. In particular, we focus on the interplay between geographic variables and institutional quality at the local level, measured with the University of Gothenburg’s Quality of Governance dataset. Within-city digital divide is computed using individual-level data on European citizens, thus controlling for individual traits that the literature has identified as relevant determinants. These include gender, age, education level, and occupational information, among others. Our paper sheds light both on the individual level determinants of the within-city digital divide, and considers how the uneven spatial distribution of the urban digital divide is related to local institutional, economic and social characteristics. Implications of our work can help inform local policy makers, who increasingly rely on digital solutions in urban policy planning, to consider the existence of a local digital divide among citizens and adopt corrective measures to help achieve digital urban policies’ full potential. Our empirical results document a negative association between the quality of local institutions and the within-city digital divide. Results are robust to a number of alternative specifications, as well as to the use of historical instruments.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51458,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Regional Science","volume":"104 6","pages":"Article 100118"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145109877","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 paper presents a novel method for estimating interregional trade matrices based on a gravity-RAS approach using survey and non-survey data at different aggregation levels. The new aggregate-disaggregate-aggregate RAS method combines estimation of à priori matrices using aggregated survey data with RAS balancing using disaggregated non-survey data for multiple commodities. The paper uses data from the Swedish Commodity Flow Survey to showcase the method's potential to improve estimations of multiregional trade matrices, highlighting trade-offs between aggregation bias and sampling errors. The performance of the method is evaluated using Monte Carlo simulation in an approach that simulates both trade matrices comprised of multiple commodities and a data sampling process for collecting CFS data. Simulation results indicate that RAS balancing at a disaggregated level can significantly improve model accuracy compared to both aggregated and disaggregated methods, highlighting the effectiveness of disaggregate-level RAS balancing. The method is demonstrated using a case study based on Swedish Commodity Flow Survey data, which also illustrates common challenges in MRIO construction under real-world data constraints.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51458,"journal":{"name":"Papers in Regional Science","volume":"104 5","pages":"Article 100111"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144912168","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}

Firms that embrace automation experience employment growth. These gains come at the expense of employment losses in nonautomating firms and other sectors, as labor flows in response to the shift in labor demand. By introducing regional heterogeneous impacts, this study further shows that the effects of automation differ across local labor markets because of the uneven spatiotemporal diffusion of automation technologies.
