N2  - We report results of economic policy experiments carried out in
the framework of the EURACE agent-based macroeconomic model
featuring a distinct geographical dimension and heterogeneous workers
with respect to skill types. Using a calibrated model able to replicate
a range of stylized facts of goods and labor markets, it is examined in
how far effects differ if policy measures aiming at an improvement of
general skills are uniformly spread over all regions in the economy or
focused in one particular region. We find that it depends on the level
of spatial frictions on the labor market how the spatial distribution
of policy measures affects the effects of the policy. Furthermore, we
show that a reduction in spatial frictions does not necessarily improve
the growth of output and household income.
