This study investigates the effects of spatial interactions on local wages based on a panel
data from 20 Italian provinces between 2004 and 2015. Using the Global Moran’s I statistic,
we have provided empirical evidence for the presence of spatial dependencies in provincial
wages. Then, we have estimated the provincial wage equation by using a dynamic spatial
panel model as far region and time-period fixed effects are concerned to test the spatial cointegration
that controls the spatial heterogeneity and spatial interdependence with other
regional characteristics. Parameter estimations are obtained by reformulating the initial
model in spatial first differences. The next estimation is done by using the error correction
model representation of the dynamics spatial panel model. So, we have examined provincial
wages effects and the extent to which a change in unemployment rate and explanatory variables
in a particular region affect wages in other regions. The last estimation is obtained by
comparing the performance of the spatial weights matrix, and as a result we have proved
that the contagion matrix must be replaced by an inverse distance matrix.
