Herrera Gómez, M.; Cid , J. C. and Paz , J. (2012): “Introduction to Spatial Econometrics: An application to the study of fertility in Argentina using R” MPRA Working Paper No. 41138, September.

Spatial econometrics is a relatively young branch econometric but with a great growth in the last decades. The complexity of spatial analysis and the estimation of spatial models has been the major obstacle for appliedstudies. The aim of this paper is to contribute to the diffusion of spatial tools developed. Specifically, this paper performs a concise review of the theoretical aspects that involve the spatial treatment. We also present an empirical application of the techniques discussed. Using the statistical program R, we analyze the determinants of fertility in Argentina.
