Tax autonomy mitigates soft budget constraint: evidence from Spanish Regions
Arespa-Castelló, Marta
; González-Alegre, Juan (Cambridge, 2022-10-19)
Within the framework of the soft budget constraint problem, this article investigates the impact of a legislative reform that increased regional tax autonomy on the propensity of Spanish regional governments to incur a ... -
The bureaucracy trap
Andina-Díaz, Ascensión; Feri, Francesco; Meléndez-Jiménez, Miguel Ángel (Elsevier, 2023-07-30)
We study the incentives of political parties to institute reforms that improve bureaucratic quality and increase the ability of governments to implement policy change. We consider a context of dynamic elections where current ... -
The circular economy and the optimal recycling rate: a macroeconomic approach
Bongers-Chicano, Aneli María; Casas, Pablo (Elsevier, 2022-06-06)
This paper studies the economic implications of the circular economy and recycling activities from a macroeconomic perspective. The paper incorporates the circular economy into an otherwise standard neoclassical dynamic ... -
The Design of Emission Taxes in Markets with New Firm Acquisitions
(Springer, 2024-04-15)In the 1990s there was a great deal of interest in the study of the role of endogenous market structure under oligopoly in the characterization of emission taxes. This interest was instrumental in providing policy guidance ... -
The design of environmental policy for the olive oil sector in the presence of eco-friendly firms
(Elsevier, 2024)The olive oil sector in the European Union has recently exhibited an increase in the production of eco-friendly olive oil, which is consistent with the policy goals of increasing the production of eco-friendly products and ... -
The determinants of inflation volatility: a panel data analysis for US-product categories.
Arespa-Castelló, Marta; González-Alegre, Juan (Taylor & Francis Group, 2022-02-20)
Some macroeconomic dimensions like the economic business cycle, the exchange rate move- ments when the degree of country openness is significant, or the level of inflation are often considered to explain measured-inflation ... -
The effect of early automation on the wage distribution with endogenous occupational choices
Hidalgo-Pérez, Manuel A.; Molinari, Benedetto (Springer, 2022-06-23)
While the literature demonstrated that automation reduces employment in routine jobs (job polarization), its impact on wages is still unclear and the debate open. By applying Counterfactual Quantile Regressions to historical ... -
The impact of weather variation on energy consumption in residential houses.
(Elsevier, 2015)This paper studies the impact of weather variation on energy use by using 5-minutes interval weather–energy data obtained from two residential houses: house 1 is a conventional house with advanced efficiency features and ... -
The intensive and the extensive margins: not only an international issue.
Arespa-Castelló, Marta (Springer, 2013-03-27)
Empirical evidence shows that quantity (intensive margin) and variety availability (extensive margin) have effects of different magnitude on populations’ welfare. Indeed, the pattern of a market dynamics may cause changes ... -
The minimal Hilbert basis of the Hammond order cone
(Springer, 2022-07-11)We characterize the minimal Hilbert basis of the Hammond order cone, and present several novel applications of the resulting basis. From the basis, we extract an invertible matrix, that provides a numerical representation ... -
The regulation and expansion of the gas industry in nineteenth-century France and Spain: a comparative approach.
Vázquez-Fariñas, María (Journal of Energy History/Revue d'Histoire de l'Énergie, 2024-01-11)
This paper presents the evolution of the regulation of the gas industry in France and Spain during the 19th century. To this end, numerous studies on gas management have been analysed and the evolutionary process of this ... -
The role of multiple pollutants and pollution intensities in the policy reform of taxes and standards.
(De Gruyter, 2019)Countries with varying degrees of pollution intensities, facing increasing global competition and addressing emissions from multiple pollutants may undertake policy reforms inconsistent with cooperative outcomes, where ... -
The role of nonzero conjectural variation in pollution abatement and output in the design of emission taxes.
(Cambridge University Press, 2021-06)The presence of nonzero conjectural variations in pollution abatement and output make emission taxes less effective with respect to reducing emissions. This has implications for the characterization of the optimal emission ... -
The Welfare Impact of New Firm Acquisitions.
(Springer Nature, 2022)Despite a large volume of studies examining the welfare impact of acquisitions, there are not many studies that model the welfare impact of acquiring new firms. This study offers a review of the literature and presents ... -
Transmission and use of information in network games.
Currarini, Sergio; Feri, Francesco; Hartig, Bjoern; Meléndez-Jiménez, Miguel Ángel (Elsevier, 2023-04-08)
We design an experiment to study how agents share and make use of information in networks. Agents receive payo -relevant signals automatically shared with neighbours. We compare the use of information in different network ... -

Megía-Cayuela, Daniel (Wiley, 2022-09-12)
This paper measures the optimal prices of football tickets and investigates the pricing strategy of the first-division teams in the Spanish league during the 2018/2019 season. The paper develops a dual hybrid model of ... -
Vote choices and valence: intercepts and alternate specifications
(Cambridge University Press, 2024-01-18)Valence is a crucial concept in studying spatial voting and party competition. The widely adopted approach is to rely on intercepts of vote choice models and to infer, based on their size and direction, how valence affects ...
