En este trabajo se analizan los desarrollos empíricos que han abordado la estimación de la ecuación nominal de salarios dentro de los modelos de Nueva Geografía Económica. Los resultados de los trabajos empíricos realizados para una muestra mundial de países y al interior de la Unión Europea confirman las predicciones teóricas de los modelos, mostrando que las variables de geografía económica son clave para explicar la estructura espacial de salarios, observada en las distintas áreas geográficas mencionadas.

Abstract:
In this paper we analyze the empirical developments concerning the estimation of the nominal wage equation proposed in the context of the New Economic Geography models. Results from the empirical works carried out for a sample of countries and for the European Union confirm the theoretical predictions of the models, showing that economic geography variables are key in order to explain the spatial wage structure observed in the different geographical areas mentioned.
Keywords: New Economic Geography, Agglomeration, International Trade, Transport Costs, Market Potential. JEL Classification: R11, R12, R13, R14, F12
Résumé :
Dans ce travail nous analysons les développements empiriques qui ont été pris en compte dans l'estimation de l'équation nominale des salaires dans les modèles de Nouvelle Géographie Économique. Pour un échantillon des pays et pour l'Union Européenne, les résultats des travaux empiriques confirment les prévisions théoriques des modèles puisque les variables de la Géographie Economique expliquent, en effet, la structure spatiale des salaires, laquelle a été observée dans les différentes zones géographiques mentionnées ci-dessus.
