Agglomeration and Innovation (2014, positive): “although Ciccone and Peri (2006) find no evidence of a human capital externality, they do find evidence of an urban agglomeration effect, underscoring the need to distinguish these effects.”
The attenuation of human capital spillovers (2008, background): “Combes et al. (2008) report urbanization elasticities in France that range from 2.”
The interregional migration of human capital and its regional consequences: a review (2017, background): “Other studies (Ciccone & Peri, 2006; Islam & Fausten, 2008) find the effects of high-skilled migration on wages to be weak or insignificant.”
The economic case for education† (2016, background): “Additional recent examples of labor-market analyses beyond the entry phase that are in line with this pattern include Cörvers et al. (2011), Weber (2014), and Golsteyn and Stenberg (2014).”
The Empirics of Agglomeration Economies (2014, methodology): “An alternative approach has been proposed by Ciccone and Peri (2006) but only the average effect of human capital externalities can be recovered and not those specific to each type of workers.”
Human Capital Measurement: A Survey (2010, background): “Ciccone and Peri (2006) find, with US data, that such externalities are non-significant.”
Economics and Emigration: Trillion-Dollar Bills on the Sidewalk? (2011, neutral): “Furthermore, the theoretical mechanisms of human capital externalities are poorly established in the literature, which has few conclusions in general and even fewer for developing countries (Ciccone and Peri, 2006).”
Institutions, Human Capital and Development: Online Appendix (2014, neutral): “For example, Rauch (1993), Acemoglu & Angrist (2001), Duflo (2004), and Ciccone & Peri (2006) exploit variation in average schooling in a local labor market, and this local variation should also capture differences in the average human capital of entrepreneurs.”
