%X The purpose of this article is to analyze if spatial dependence is a synchronic
effect, as it has usually been defined. It is known that in many
socio-economic phenomena spatial dependence can be not only contemporary
but also time-lagged. In this paper, we use two Moran-based
space-time autocorrelation statistics in order to evaluate the simultaneity
of this spatial effect, allowing for mixed specifications with instantaneous
and space-time dependence terms. Some applications with economic data
for Spanish provinces shed some light upon these issues.
