This paper seeks to understand how the determinants of economic growth in Brazil may manifest themselves differently on various spatial scales between 1991 and 2000.Analysing this issue sheds light on the modifiable areal unit problem (a measurement issue).In addition, it also suggests potential explanations for the origin of this variability.This latter issue relates to the scale-dependent determinants of economic growth (a structural issue).The analysis reveals that the results change as the scale level changes and suggests a general framework for dealing with multiple spatial scales and model uncertainty.Moreover, the extent of the effects of spatial externalities and the issue of spatial heterogeneity are investigated.
