Abstract: A rural country in the 1950's, Italy is now a large industrial economy. In this paper we show through a joint analysis of spatial autocorrelation and concentration of employment that this development has not been driven by centre-periphery mechanisms.

Keywords: Italy; economic geography; centre-periphery model; spatial autocorrelation; spatial concentration. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
