“…Overall our results validate the concerns of Longley and Tobón (); Billé et al (, ) and Bourdin () that there can be sizable differences in coefficient estimates across different spatial regimes. Note that, our findings also validate the early concerns of Doğruel and Doğruel () that examine the west‐east duality with the help of sample split and traditional convergence models.…”

“…GWR is a powerful tool to analyse the extent of spatial heterogeneity (Bivand, ). Recent advances in spatial analyses underline the possibility of controlling for spatial dependence in GWR type of models (Billé, Benedetti, & Postiglione, ). Detection of different spatial regimes and control of spatial spillovers within each regime is a good exercise to understand spatial mechanisms.…”

Winners and losers of rapid growth in Turkey: Analysis of the spatial variability of convergence

This paper investigates spatial variability of regional convergence for the 2004‐2017 period in Turkey. Results from neoclassical convergence model which are robust to inclusion of a spatial battery points out the existence of convergence. However, additional results highlight that regional convergence is spatially heterogeneous. While underdeveloped regions exhibit higher convergence, convergence speed is not distributed evenly among these underdeveloped eastern regions. These findings point out that, last epoch of Turkish transformation fails to have equity enhancing effects at local level, rather there are winners and losers of the rapid growth of 2000s.

“…The pioneering non-parametric technique introduced by Reference [44] will be our method of choice. Spatial autocorrelation is often generated by spatial heterogeneity issues [45]. We choose the Phillips-Sul approach outlined in Reference [44] because, in the presence of such heterogeneity, standard cointegration and unit root testing are no longer sufficient for testing for convergence [44,46].…”

In this paper we test for convergence in access to clean energy and clean technology among nations in order to study the economic determinants of access to clean energy and clean technologies. This is important because without access to clean fuels, no global development strategy can be environmentally sustainable. After obtaining an estimated convergence rate under a conditional β-convergence model, we use a more sophisticated club convergence econometric framework and ultimately reject the hypothesis of β-convergence in favor of subgroups exhibiting intra-group convergence tendencies that are distinct from the other groups. We then employ a club convergence algorithm which groups the 93 nations studied into 8 convergence clubs based on characteristics including the percentage of the population with access to clean energy in the household and the growth rate of this percentage. Evidence that household access to clean energy and clean technology is tied to economic development and institutional quality is provided by showing that the convergence clubs not only reflect distinct strata in access to clean energy but are also strongly tied to important indicators of institutional quality.

“…In addition, the journal receives many submissions making the point that GWR outperforms the ordinary least squares (OLS) approach in that it provides a better model fit, especially in hedonic housing price studies. The fifth paper in this issue, by Billé, Benedetti, and Postiglione (2017), stands out in that it is trying to make a major methodological step forward. It proposes a two-step procedure to identify endogenously spatial regimes in the first step and then to account for spatial dependence in the second step.…”

Raising the bar (6). Spatial Economic Analysis. This editorial summarizes and comments on the papers published in issue 12(4) so as to raise the bar in applied spatial economic research and highlight new trends. The first paper addresses the question of whether 'jobs follow people' or 'people follow jobs'. The second paper develops a new methodology to determine functional regions. The third paper is a major contribution to the growing literature on new modelling approaches and applications of disaster impact models. The fourth paper focuses on the costs and benefits of higher education. The fifth paper develops a two-step procedure to identify endogenously spatial regimes in the first step using geographically weighted regression, and to account for spatial dependence in the second step. Finally, the sixth paper estimates a dynamic spatial panel data model to explain house prices and to show that restricted housing supply in the city of Cambridge, UK, has some undesirable labour market effects.
