Spatial Patterns of Technology Diffusion: An Empirical Analysis Using TFP
In this paper the authors employ techniques developed in spatial econometrics to analyse spatial patterns of technology diffusion, to detect clusters and to estimate theoretical models that incorporate space explicitly. The dataset consists of TFP estimates for 73 countries over the period 1960-2000.
