Title: The effect of public infrastructure on private activity: Evidence from the spanish regions
Abstract: This paper considers the measurement of infrastructure capital in the Spanish economy and 
	investigates the technical relation among the inputs, which offers information about the way 
	infrastructure enters in the production process. Using a translog production function we present 
	panel estimates for the 17 Spanish regions for the period 1980-1995. The results indicate that 
	productive infrastructure encourages private investment and can therefore be considered to be essential 
	for economic growth.
Keywords: Translogarithmic Production Function, Inputs Technical Relations, Regional growth, Productive
