The Relationship between Economic Complexity, Energy Consumption Structure and Greenhouse Gas Emission: Heterogeneous Panel Evidence from the EU Countries (2019, methodology): “According to the Center for International Development at Harvard University, the Economic Complexity Index (ECI) is an expression of the diversity and complexity of a country’s export basket [20].”
How Regions React to Recessions: Resilience and the Role of Economic Structure (2016, background): “Others, however, argue that it is the diversity – the complexity – of a region’s or a city’s economic structure (its industries or its products) that imbues it with higher growth and greater stability (e.g., HAUSMANN et al., 2013).”
Neighbors and the evolution of the comparative advantage of nations: Evidence of international knowledge diffusion? (2014, methodology): “Data on exports in the period 1962–2000 comes from the World Trade Flows (WTF) Dataset (Feenstra et al., 2005) and was extended until 2008 using data from the UN COMTRADE website by Hausmann et al. (2011).”
Economic Complexity and Environmental Performance: Evidence from a World Sample (2019, methodology): “The index is calculated by applying the methodology described in [60] on dataset 2.”
Quantifying China's Regional Economic Complexity (2017, background): “The Economic Complexity Index (ECI) [18] is proposedbased on the intuition that, in our case, sophisticated economies are of high diversity (the number of industries one province has) and have industrieswith lowubiquity (the number of provinces with that industry), because only a few provinces can d”
Smart specialization policy in the European Union: relatedness, knowledge complexity and regional diversification (2019, background): “Hausmann et al. (2014) proposed a similar strategy to identify future economic opportunities for countries.”
Technological complexity and economic growth of regions (2020, background): “Until now, empirical evidence of the economic benefit of knowledge complexity is scarce and restricted to economic complexity as measured by the product portfolio of an economy (Hidalgo and Hausmann, 2009; Hausmann et al., 2013; Bahar et al., 2014).”
The Charmed Life of Superstar Exporters: Survey Evidence on Firms and Trade Policy (2017, background): “China, Mexico, and the European Union are all among Costa Rica’s five greatest trade partners (Hausmann et al. 2014).”
Rebalancing the Spatial Economy: The Challenge for Regional Theory (2015, background): “For an interesting approach to measuring and tracking how national regional and city economies ‘fit into’ product and technological space, and how the complexity of that fit seems to be correlated with economic success, see HAUSMANN et al. (2013).”
Does Institutional Quality Foster Economic Complexity? (2019, positive): “In line with this long-standing viewpoint, improvements in economic complexity, achieved by acquiring new productive capabilities and resource transformation towards productive activities, are arguably reinforced by the quality of human capital (Hausmann et al., 2014; Zhu & Li, 2017; Lapatinas & Lit”
Economic complexity and the green economy (2020, methodology): “Following Hausmann et al. (2014), we standardise the ECI and PCI measures by subtracting their mean values and dividing the result by the standard deviation.”
The Principle of Relatedness (2018, background): “Knowledge intense economies tend to grow faster [27, 28] and be less unequal [29] at the national level, than less knowledge intense economies, at the same levels of income, human capital, and similar institutions.”
Varieties of capitalism in light of the euro crisis (2018, methodology): “For comments on earlier versions of this article, I am grateful to Dorothee Bohle, Martin Höpner, Torben Iversen, Vytautas Kuokstis, Gary Marks, Waltraud Schelkle, David Soskice, Mark Thatcher and two insightful reviewers.”
Economic structure and environmental Kuznets curve hypothesis: new evidence from economic complexity (2020, background): “1For more details on economic complexity, see Hidalgo and Hausmann (2009), Hausmann et al. (2011), and Can and Doğan (2017).”
Keys to the City: How Economics, Institutions, Social Interaction, and Politics Shape Development (2013, background): “A useful approach, even if regional data do not exist, would be to engage with Hausmann et al. (2011) and Hidalgo et al.’s (2007) notions of product space of traded products and economic complexity.”
Economic complexity, human capital and economic growth: empirical research based on cross-country panel data (2017, background): “In addition, Hausmann et al. (2014) find that there is a positive relationship between complexity and human capital.”
UpSet: Visualization of Intersecting Sets (2014, methodology): “We also added a measure of economic complexity—the Economic Complexity Index (ECI) [12]—that captures the diversity of products that a country exports.”
The Link between Economic Complexity and Carbon Emissions in the European Union Countries: A Model Based on the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) Approach (2019, positive): “ECI is considered to be an accurate predictor of income per capita growth [2,3,8].”
