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. 606 $aSpace in economics 606 $aRegional economics 606 $aEconomic geography 606 $aUrban economics 606 $aInternational trade 606 $aMathematical models 610 $aECONOMICS/Trade & Development 615 0$aSpace in economics. 615 0$aRegional economics. 615 0$aEconomic geography. 615 0$aUrban economics. 615 0$aInternational trade. 615 0$aMathematical models. 676 $a330.9 700 $aFujita$b Masahisa$0128029 701 $aKrugman$b Paul R$0118463 701 $aVenables$b Anthony$0122454 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778637503321 996 $aThe spatial economy$93763705 997 $aUNINA
