Beschreibung:
Shift-share analysis is a decomposition technique that is commonly used to measure attributes of regional change. In this method, a large region is decomposed into its relevant functional and regional parts. By decomposing smaller regions embedded in a large region, it allows us to understand larger regions through a process of decomposition of its important components. This technique has been used to measure various economic dynamics, such as employment change, productivity, and international trade. This paper introduces traditional shift-share method and its extensions with examples
