Abstract
In a semi-parametric spatial vector autoregressive setting this paper investigates the role of age-structured human capital on output comovements in Europe. Using the proportion of age-structured human capital growth and its degree of appropriations in output production as twin measures of distance, we find significant positive spatial growth volatility/persistence.Spatial growth volatility, Non-linear growth, Age-structured human capital, Semi-parametric VAR.
