Mexico's Labor Market : The Importance Of Education - Occupation Matching On Wages And Productivity In Developing Countries, Michael A. Quinn, Stephen Rubb
Economics Faculty Publications
The positive impact of education on earnings , wages, economic growth is well documented, however the issue of education - occupation matching in developing countries has been largely ignored. Since workers 'level of schooling and their occupations ' required level of education both affect wages , policy makers may find it useful to note if such mismatch exist, if they impact wages, and if they can be avoided. Empirical results from Mexico suggest that in order to obtain the maximum economic benefits from increases in educational attainment levels, a developing country needs to take steps to assure increases in occupational …

This work is an update to the Regional Economic Indicators: Business and Innovation Climate report that was issued in August 2004. Although many of the same economic indicators are used in the analyses, there is a major difference between the two reports. The August 2004 release had a broad focus on the overall business climate in 36 comparable metro areas. The result was a single index—business and innovation climate. In this report, we focus almost exclusively on innovation and entrepreneurship, each with its own index.

Regional Research Institute Technical Documents
West Virginia's overall competitive position in the area of technology-based economic development is characterized as mixed. While the state does have significant technology assets including federal research laboratories, universities and selected firms, these assets fail to produce substantial spillover benefits to the local population and state as a whole. While West Virginia has a relatively strong technological base, a number of factors serve to inhibit economic growth and technology transference.

Faculty Publications
Community economic development (CED) is distinguished by a specific agenda for broader development and accountability - for building local resources, economic capacity and political clout in lower- and moderate-income communities. Organizing and development of low-income communities must take account of microenterprise as the locus of substantial economic activity.

Development And Food Demand Changes: Production And Management Implications, Norman Rask, Kolleen Rask
Development And Food Demand Changes: Production And Management Implications, Norman Rask, Kolleen Rask
Economics Department Working Papers
Per capita food consumption and production changes during economic development are analyzed using a resource-based cereal equivalent measure. Diet up-grades to livestock products during economic development contribute to an increase in per capita food resource use by a factor of five or more. Food consumption changes are generally consistent across countries and are only marginally affected by a country’s food production resource base (land). Food consumption increases tend to exceed food production increases in early stages of development, leading to food import needs. In later stages of development, per capita food consumption stabilizes. Continued increases in production allow the closing …

Employment Centers In The Akron, Cleveland And Youngstown Metropolitan Areas, Robert Sadowski
All Maxine Goodman Levin School of Urban Affairs Publications
What is an employment center? McMillen (2003) defines an employment center as a “concentration of firms large enough to have significant effects on the overall spatial distribution of population, employment, and land prices.” Bogart (1998) sees employment centers as a collection of small open economies in a metropolitan area that specialize and trade with each other. Technically speaking, an employment center is a geographic area that exceeds a threshold employment density (employees per square mile) and a threshold employment level.
