Abstract

In this paper we extend the tests of the monotonicity and concavity of a non-spatial translog production function to the case where there is spatial autoregressive dependence. The tests are then applied using data for 40 European countries over the period 1995-2008.

Keywords: Spatial Autoregression, Monotonicity, Concavity

JEL Classification: C23, C52, D24
