Population change and accessibility by road and rail networks: GIS and statistical approach to Finland 1970-2007

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the relation of accessibility by road and railway networks to population change between the years 1970-2007 in Finland and found that the accessibility of railway network was found to have affected the population change in the 1970s, when local level traffic reduced in the entire country, and in 2000-2007, following remarkable investments in longhaul transport.

Is public expenditure productive

TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between aggregate productivity and stock and flow government-spending variables is investigated and the empirical results indicate that the non-military public capital stock is dramatically more important in determining productivity than is either the flow of nonmilitary or military spending, and that military capital bears little relation to productivity.
