BORRAYO, Rafael e QUINTANA, Luis. Creativity, Efficiency, and Spatial Concentration in Mexico. Prob. Des [online]. 2018, vol.49, n.193, pp.33-66. ISSN 0301-7036. https://doi.org/10.22201/iiec.20078951e.2018.193.63181.
Regional competitiveness evolves in close parallel to productivity, which, at present, is increasingly tied to creativity and innovation. A range of studies on the theme recognize that the spatial concentration of creativity drives productivity; nevertheless, few have managed to quantify the magnitude of this relationship. Via a stochastic production frontier analysis, this paper evaluates the levels of technical efficiency and productivity found across Mexico's 59 metropolitan regions (MR) and measures the contribution of the creative activities located in each of them.
Palavras-chave : metropolitan zones; regional competitiveness; technical efficiency; and productivity; production and efficiency frontier models.
