Using Average Propagation Lengths to Identify Production Chains in the Andalusian Economy

Abstract

"In this paper, we adopt the viewpoint that not only the size of sectoral linkages is relevant but alsothe economic distance between sectors. To measure distance, we define the average propagation lengthas the average number of steps it takes an exogenous change in one sector to affect the value of productionin another sector. This distance does not depend on whether the linkages are forward or backward innature. Combining the size of the linkages and the distance between sectors, allows us to visualize theproduction structure in terms of production chains. The empirical application studies the Andalusianeconomy."
