The concept of community resilience has garnered a great deal of attention in the past decade and many theoretical constructs have been proposed to model resilience, including the community capitals framework. However, while the community capitals framework has been developed theoretically and subcomponents have been quantified, little research has attempted to address the community capitals framework as a whole and test how well the theorical constructs fit together. Using a structural equation model, we empirically investigate the community capitals framework and test how variables identified in the literature combine to predict community resilience. We find that, while many variables in the theoretical literature perform poorly, the overall framework provides a compelling avenue for addressing economic resilience.

Issues related to in-migration, out-migration, and within-state migration have been of interest to urban and rural planners, local and state governments, and researchers, among others, for many years. Why do some areas thrive and grow while seemingly comparable sites experience declining populations and challenges in providing the services people expect? Using a unique dataset that focuses on rural residents in Nebraska and their intent to relocate, this study uses a Probit model to assess the determinants of migration in rural Nebraska. Among other findings, it appears that rural outmigration intent is driven as much by the lack of rural amenities as by economic conditions.

This paper analyzes the determinants and effects of technological catch-up and knowledge spillover effects on employment productivity in the Innovation Startup Segment in Italy using a sample of 260 Innovative Startup companies. Estimates indicate that regional specialization provides the highest potential for employment productivity gains, while higher levels of competition and higher regional diversity suppress the prospects for knowledge spillover effects to develop. Particularly, the analysis using the comprehensive sample of firms indicates the presence of forces leading to output per worker convergence at the national level, i.e., technological catch-up is present at the per-worker level; yet, the overall value of production convergence across regions is not present. We also detect the presence of Spatial Dependency in relation to the neighboring firms. That is, there is support for weak convergence across regions in favor of the Marshallian hypotheses. However, sectorial estimations for the Services, Information Technology, and Manufacturing sector indicate the presence of large differences in terms of technological catch-up effects.

Economic development strategies may include tax, incentive, and public expenditure policies. Budget-constrained state and local governments must make tradeoffs when determining the final mix of economic development and other public policies each year. In this paper, I first provide descriptive evidence on economic development policy tradeoffs. I then classify economic development strategies and relate them to real GDP per capita growth.

We analyze interregional competition between two regions A and B that use taxes to attract a representative creative class member (the entrepreneur). This entrepreneur establishes a firm in either region A or B, which guarantees her profit. However, if the entrepreneur locates in region A, she also obtains a stochastic, location-specific rent that is either high with positive probability or low with positive complementary probability. In this setting, we accomplish three tasks. First, given the values of the two tax rates, we determine the payoff to the entrepreneur in the two regions for the two possible values of the location-specific rent in A. Second, we ascertain when the entrepreneur will locate in A for both the rent values and when she will locate in B. Finally, we compute the tax rate that B will set and then specify a condition which ensures that the entrepreneur locates in B.

This paper examines the impact of religious participation on regional economic growth. Using data on GDP growth for United States counties from the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) Regional Economic Accounts and data on county-level religious participation from the Association of Religion Data Archives (ARDA), this paper estimates the impact of religiosity on growth using two-way fixed-effects Barro regressions for the period 2000 to 2020. In our preferred specification, a ten percentage-point increase in the county religious adherent share reduces the 10-year compound annual growth rate of per-capita GDP by 0.14 percentage points (a 19% reduction relative to the sample mean). A battery of sensitivity checks suggests our results are unlikely to be driven by omitted variable bias: both the Oster (2019) adjustment for selection on unobservables and Kinky Least Squares (KLS) regression estimates indicate that OLS understates the negative impact of religion on regional economic growth. We argue that the negative impact of religion on regional economic growth is consistent with previous findings of increased business survival and increased small business activity in a framework where the social capital generated from religious participation results in inefficiently low regional dynamism.

We examine Granger causality between state expenditures and tax revenues in the US with Balanced-Budget Requirements (BBRs). BBRs are statutory or constitutional rules to prevent states from spending more than tax revenues. Policymakers may adjust taxes, change expenditures, or do both to achieve BBRs. Panel VAR is introduced to address endogenous interactions between state expenditures and tax revenues. Panel VAR provides a unifying empirical framework and identification strategy which might be lacking in the previous literature. The empirical result supports that tax revenues Granger cause state expenditures. As BBRs are about planning, tax revenues make states plan on how to spend them. Considering BBRs with the empirical results from this study, states expenditures should be adjusted close to (projected) tax revenues. Additionally, this study finds that the business cycle has counter-intuitive effects. Tax revenues did not change when the US experienced the recession during 2008-2009 with the increases in intergovernmental transfer from the federal. State expenditures also increased during the recession.

In this study, we calculate the productive capabilities of Mexico’s municipalities (i.e., their Economic Complexity Index, or ECI) and the productive capabilities required for their economic activities to be carried out (i.e., the ECI of their economic activities). We do this in order to determine whether or not the differences in the main municipal economic indicators (such as levels of wealth, economic growth rates, and salaries) are associated with differences in productive capabilities. Specifically, our results illustrate: i) a considerable heterogeneity, in terms of productive capabilities, across municipalities; ii) a positive relationship between the level of economic complexity of municipalities and their level of wealth and rate of economic growth, and iii) a positive relationship between the complexity of economic activities and the average salaries received by those employed in them. Furthermore, by finding that the majority of new firms in complex (non-complex) municipalities generally tend to engage in more sophisticated/higher-value-added (less sophisticated/lower-value-added) economic activities, we provide supporting evidence on the gradual accumulation of productive capabilities within municipalities to the literature on evolutionary economic geography. According to this literature, this is how economies generally develop, i.e., by gradually accumulating productive capabilities so as to become more diverse and be able to engage in more complex economic activities, allowing economies to grow and become wealthier.

The Global Multi-Dimensional Poverty Index (MPI) was developed in 2010 and used health, education and standard of living indicators to determine the incidence and intensity of poverty experienced by a population. While the MPI is a global index, the method is flexible and can be modified to best suit the environment or target groups. Coastal regions are one of the most critical areas that require modified MPI, since their complex structures are constantly subjected to natural and human changes that affect the living conditions of residents. What is lost in using the global MPI for poverty assessment in coastal communities is the lack of attention to contextual characteristics and, subsequently, missing various multi-aspect indicators in different natures and scales. This paper reviews the MPI and tries to expand the model based on the indicators of marine development approaches for the Makran coastal region as the case study. Overall, this review draws attention to social, natural, and financial capitals that have not conventionally been incorporated into the MPI model. According to the proposed model, although the Makran region has made slight progress in poverty reduction based on the general MPI index under the influence of development plans and various drivers during a ten-year period, it is severely impoverished in social, financial, and natural indicators presented by the expanded model. This difference shows the importance of using the developed model to enhance assessment accuracy and recommends a combination of five main poverty-related dimensions for poverty alleviation policies and evaluation processes in coastal regions.

Tourism plays an important role in encouraging cooperation and peace between the partitioned countries. The current study aims to investigate the influence of cross-border tourism on bilateral trade and cooperation between India and Myanmar. Further, the paper identifies the role of community support as a mediator between exogenous and endogenous variables. An onsite questionnaire is distributed among the residents of Indian border areas close to the neighboring border of Myanmar. The SEM is employed to reject the null hypotheses and test the proposed model empirically. The findings reveal that all the proposed hypotheses are supported. The cross-border cooperation is positively influenced by cross-border tourism development and trade between India and Myanmar. Moreover, community support mediates the relationship between cross-border tourism, bilateral trade, and cooperation. An important consideration from this paper is that tourism supported by border communities can act as a catalyst for promoting cooperation among hostile countries. India and Myanmar being close neighbors, have huge scope to support each other through different cross-border programs, projects, and bilateral trade. The study provides valuable insights for both countries to adopt tourism initiatives as a tool to ameliorate their relationships and develop the economic conditions of border communities.
