Location Theory, vol Two volume set

Edited by Jacques-François Thisse, Kenneth Button and Peter Nijkamp

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: In recent years a growing number of social scientists have become increasingly interested in the study of location problems. This interest has been fostered by the integration of national economies within broader spaces such as the EU or NAFTA as well as by their impact on the development of regions and cities. Another important reason for this attention is the growing awareness among economists that a comprehensive economic theory can no longer put space aside. Most economic activities are distributed over space, and for such activities space moulds the very nature of competition between firms.
