  • 2009/14: On the equivalence of location choice models: conditional logit, nested logit and poisson

    Kurt Schmidheiny, Marius Brülhart

    It is well understood that the two most popular empirical models of location choice-conditional logit and Poisson - return identical coefficient estimates when the regressors are not individual specific. We show that these two models differ starkly in terms of their implied predictions. The conditional logit model represents a zero-sum...

    2009/13: The determinants of University patenting: do incentives matter?

    Tomás del Barrio-Castro, José García-Quevedo

    In recent years various studies have examined the factors that may explain academic patents. Existing analyses have also underlined the substantial differences to be found in European countries in the institutional framework that defines property rights for academic patents. The objective of this study is to contribute to the empirical...

    2009/12: Bohemians, Human Capital, and Regional Economic Growth

    Oliver Falck, Michael Fritsch, Stephan Heblich

    An emerging literature on the geography of bohemians argues that a region’s lifestyle and cultural amenities explain, at least partly, the unequal distribution of highly qualified people across space, which in turn, explains geographic disparities in economic growth. However, to date, there has been little or no empirical attempt to...

    2009/11: Strategic Tax Collection and Fiscal Decentralization: The case of Russia

    Alexander Libman, Lars P. Feld

    In a centralized federation, where tax rates and taxation rules are set by the federal government, manipulating the thoroughness of tax auditing and the effectiveness of tax collection could be attractive for regional authorities because of a variety of reasons. These range from tax competition to principal-agent problems, state capture...

    2009/10: Evaluating the effects of decentralization on educational outcomes in Spain

    Albert Solé-Ollé, Paula Salinas

    Several arguments derived from fiscal federalism theory suggest that decentralization may lead to improved levels of efficiency in the provision of public goods and services. The aim of this study is to examine this hypothesis by evaluating the effects of decentralization on educational outcomes in Spain. These are measured using...

    2009/09: What does it take for and R&D tax incentive policy to be effective?

    Pierre Mohnen, Boris Lokshin

    We take a critical look at how to assess the effectiveness of R&D tax incentives. The net welfare gain is shown to be sensitive to a certain number of parameters. In particular, the deadweight loss associated with level-based tax incentives depends on the ex-ante R&D level. We report on the...
