Abstract

type="main" xml:lang="es"> En este artículo se analiza la descomposición espacial de cambios (shift-share) aplicada a datos italianos sobre cambios en los negocios regionales a nivel de planta, durante el período 2004–2009. Aquí se introduce un nuevo tipo de descomposición espacial, que gestiona más eficazmente la influencia del vecindario. De la investigación empírica aparecen resultados notables. En primer lugar, se observó que el nivel de agregación espacial afecta grandemente los resultados. En segundo lugar, se encontraron pruebas de una ventaja de vecindario en las regiones meridionales NUTS 3, a la vez que resultados opuestos para las regiones centro-norte NUTS 3. Finalmente, sólo se encuentra constancia de efectos positivos de la mezcla industrial en el centro-norte de Italia.
