Regional determinants of technical efficiency: evidence from the Greek economy
研究了区域因素对希腊经济技术效率的影响，发现核心-外围差距显著且扩大，区域内市场准入、专业化、产业集中度和人力资本对效率有正向作用。
This paper emphasizes the role of regional determinants in the technical efficiency of the Greek economy. We employ a regional production function which is simultaneously estimated with an inefficiency equation. The results underline the considerable and growing core–periphery disparities in technical efficiency. They show the significant efficiency-enhancing impact of intra-regional market access and its dispersion. They also demonstrate that interregional market access, specialization, sectoral concentration and human capital exert a positive but varying influence on the efficiency of Greek regions.
