Fujita, P. Krugman, A.J. VenablesCambridge, MA MIT Press19991 online resource (382 p.) Originally published: 1999.0-262-06204-6 Includes bibliographical references and index.The authors show how a common approach that emphasizes the three-way interaction among increasing returns, transportation costs, and the movement of productive factors can be applied to a wide range of issues in urban, regional, and international economics.Since 1990 there has been a renaissance of theoretical and empirical work on the spatial aspects of the economy--that is, where economic activity occurs and why. Using new tools--in particular, modeling techniques developed to analyze industrial organization, international trade, and economic growth--this "new economic geography" has emerged as one of the most exciting areas of contemporary economics.The authors show how seemingly disparate models reflect a few basic themes, and in so doing they develop a common "grammar" for discussing a variety of issues. They show how a common approach that emphasizes the three-way interaction among increasing returns, transportation costs, and the movement of productive factors can be applied to a wide range of issues in urban, regional, and international economics. This book is the first to provide a sound and unified explanation of the existence of large economic agglomerations at various spatial scales.Economic geographyInternational tradeRegional economicsSpace in economicsUrban economicsElectronic books.Economic geography.International trade.Regional economics.Space in economics.Urban economics.330.9Fujita Masahisa128029Krugman Paul R118463Venables Anthony122454MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910455979003321The spatial economy2479389UNINA
