“…Similarly, each product is classified as being high-PATH, mid-PATH, or low-PATH. Source: Felipe et al (2010a) Figure 7 shows the distribution of exports according to their level of sophistication (PRODY) and connectedness (PATH). As defined above, PRODY reflects the income associated with a particular product.…”

“…32 This indicates that countries in the lowermiddle-income trap are in a "low-product trap." Felipe et al (2010a) The largest share in the cases of Syria and Uruguay in the upper-middle-income trap is also the Low PRODY-Mid PATH (Table 11). Both Saudi Arabia and Venezuela export Mid PRODY-Mid PATH products the most, but they are significantly less diversified than the other 32 Appendix Table 5 shows all countries.…”

“…The concept of 'product space' has been empirically investigated and extended to new research fields. Many researchers focus on analyzing the linkage between the products in a country's export basket and the evolution of the product space [17][18][19][20]. Furthermore, the 'product space' is also applied to the study of 'scientific space' [21] and 'industry space' which stems from almost identical ideas, but employs revised methods in computing the relatedness [22].…”

Abstract:It is important to understand urban auto markets from a spatial perspective. Specifically, the question of how to simplify and visualize the relatedness of the complicated urban markets arises. Based on the concept of 'product space', this research explores the similarity between Chinese cities and identifies the city clusters using data of automobile sales in 2012. A city's automobile market is shared by different manufacturers and the proximity between two cities is evaluated based on the similarity or relatedness in the structure of the two markets. The spatial structures of the 'city clusters' derived from the proximities of automobile markets among cities are mapped, examined, and interpreted. The analysis indicates that cities with higher proximity tend to be similar. According to the intercity proximity index, four geographical city-clusters are identified: the Southeast developed city-cluster, North China city-cluster, Northeast city-cluster, and West city-cluster. Cities in the same cluster tend to share many common characteristics while cities in different clusters exhibit obvious variances, especially in terms of economic status and dominant automakers.

“…Fiscal incentives are hardly created with the intention of stimulating poor regions, since in the planning of this incentive, it brings together the production and distribution of goods and the expansion and utilization of human capacities (OLIVEIRA 2014, page 42, UNDP, 2010. Therefore, it is considered that before creating tax incentives for any region or municipalities including the most deprived, it is interesting to know the case of South Korea and Singapore in which they changed the productive structure of the economy using technology and standardization (FELIPE, KUMAR and ABDON, 2010), since it seems that fiscal incentives have lost the leverage capacity of the investment in the state (ARAÚJO, 2017, p. 18). …”

This article is the result of an investigation about tax incentives in the State of Maranhã o, where the purpose was to answer the question: what is the efficiency of tax incentives in relation to the impact on the state of employment? The hypothesis behind this research is that the idea of the Maranese government to create fiscal incentives to stimulate the generation of employment and income can not impact the regions with low human development index (HDI). The general objective of this article is to verify the relationship between the fiscal incentive and the balance of jobs between 2010 and 2016 in Maranhã o in regions with lower HDI. The specific objectives are: to investigate the policy of granting the fiscal incentive "more companies" in Maranhã o; compare the number of jobs generated with the number of companies that benefited from the tax incentive; to verify the evolution of the jobs generated in each mesoregion and to know the economic activities that generate more jobs in the state. This study is justified because it believes in the relevance it can bring to the academic environment and to the society that encompasses government, companies and professionals, since it presents a more comprehensive perspective regarding economic development in the local regional government of Maranhã o. It considers the methodology of this study, a field research, but of quantitative-descriptive character. Among the results, it was identified that the fiscal incentive had no impact on job creation in the Meso-regions that have the lowest HDI indices in the state of Maranhã o between 2010 and 2016.
