“…While the shift-share technique has limitations, especially in the area of forecasting (Stevens and Moore, 1980), it is in widespread use in the analysis of labour re-allocation and growth in the regional literature (see, for example, Le Gallo and Kamarianakis, 2011;Oosterhaven and Broersma, 2007;Ezcurra et al, 2005). The proposed measures avoid the use of initial year's weights of S i,j , which have been widely used and can lead to an under-estimation of the contribution of structural change over time (Broadberry, 1998).…”

“…To this, the shift-share analysis was applied. Description on the method has been given in several spatial statistical publications and volumes (Houston 1967;Curtis 1972;Berzeg 1978;Stevens and Craig 1980) and an example for its application regarding accessibility in Hungary was provided by Tóth (2002). Here, thus, a different approach was attempted.…”

This study aims at investigating the multiple and complex relationships between transport and tourism by various methods. In this paper, spatial interaction model and the shift-share analysis are used in different approaches. Factors of the relationship between the transport distance and tourism intensity will be detected and the connections between the accessibility of European regions and their tourism will be analysed. One of the major questions of our study is if there is any relationship between transport and tourism at European regional level (NUTS2); and if so, is there any kind of regularity in the relationship, as Bull (1994) states in his study. Finally, we examined whether there are any differences in this relationship at the level of the European regions.

“…There is a large body of literature on this method, wherein numerous examples of applications in the field of tourism can be found (Houston 1967, Stevens-Moore 1980, Selting-Loveridge 1992, Andrikopolous-Carvalho 1990, Fuchs et al 2000, Sirakaya et al 2002, Toh et al 2004, Yasin et al 2004). Our research was based on these works, and hence the detailed description of the method and its various application possibilities are disregarded.…”
