Space and Growth: a Thünen-Schumpeter Perspective

Herbert Giersch

Chapter 11 in Trade, Development and Political Economy, 2001, pp 194-212 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Competition among economists is presently generating an abundant supply of books and articles which display a high level of professional quality. We are free to choose but must select from too large a heap of reading material. A rational choice is quite time-consuming. One way out is to concentrate on authors who have given us rich food for thought in the past. High up on my own reading list is Anne Krueger. I owe her a great intellectual debt and hence a contribution to the Festschrift in her honour. Moreover, I learned a great deal from her in private discussions when she visited Kiel before and after her successful service in the World Bank. Even a phone call from her is a memorable event.
