“…Many studies in the literature highlight the role of "core" regions in transmitting GDP growth to the national economy over the business cycle through market interactions (Ertur, Le Gallo, & Baumont, 2006;Fingleton & Lopez-Bazo, 2006;Ramajo, Márquez, & Hewings, 2017). Benos, Karagiannis, and Karkalakos (2015) robustly demonstrate that interregional externalities do matter for growth in European regions, regardless of the definition of proximity. By considering different growth model specifications, arising from geographic, economic and technological proximity, they detect the importance of spillovers across regions.…”

This paper analyses the differential impact of several territorial determinants of the economic performance of Italian provinces (NUTS 3 level). as measured by per capita GDP, export and employment growth from 1999 to 2014. It covers both the pre‐crisis and the crisis period and stresses the role of geographical proximity in shaping local performance over a wide set of explanatory variables. In order to do so, we employ, firstly, a spatial Durbin model which enables us to discriminate between direct and indirect effects and to highlight the possible contagion or crowding‐out spatial effects for each territorial dimension affecting growth. Then, we extend the analysis by allowing for the possibility of two regimes (pre‐crisis and post‐crisis). The performance of the provinces before and during the crisis relates to specific territorial components and geographic proximity appears to influence differently the results and their interpretation.

“…Also, all sorts of political and financial crises in neighboring countries will have a very lasting impact on the volume of national production [4]. These phenomena necessitate coordinated policies of countries for directed high accumulation of physical and human capital, taking into account the synergy [5], as well as strengthening the relationship between the quality of public administration and economic growth, with an emphasis on the role of the currency regime [6].…”

The article presents a comparative analysis of the proximity of the dynamics of economic indicators of Germany and Russia according to the International Monetary Fund. The study is based on a systematic approach using statistical and cluster analysis. Global problems of economic growth of Germany and Russia caused by transformation of a world order, world economic activity, change of a technological way of life are considered. The use of comparative analysis of the proximity of the dynamics of economic indicators of Germany and Russia has revealed not only the internal problems of these countries, but also the possibility of using the potential of proximity, reducing the risks of structural changes in the structure of the world economy. The results of the study can be used in the process of adjusting international cooperation between Germany and Russia. The article concludes that the process of globalization and aggravation of international competition increases the gap between the economies of Germany and Russia. To eliminate this phenomenon, it is necessary to combine the potential of these countries, taking into account the proximity of the dynamics of economic growth, thereby synchronizing their joint development.

“…Previous studies have shown that geographical proximity is a necessary but not sufficient prerequisite for innovative organisational relations (Broekel-Boschma [2012] researchers examined other factors that influence inter-organisational relations and the transfer of knowledge and innovation through these organisational channels (Benos-Karagiannis-Karkalakos [2015], Karlsson-Gråsjö [2014], Torre-Rallet [2005]). These soft, but difficult to measure factors, were defined as proximity dimensions that are associated with relational (Harun-Noor-Ramasamy [2019]) and/or virtual spaces (Torre-Wallet [2014]).…”
