Abstract: Abstract There are two basically different ways of dealing with the spatially extended economy. We can ask the question: “Where should a certain activity be located?”; or we can ask: “Which activity should be chosen at a certain location?” Location theory deals with the first question, land use theory with the second. Both, of course, address the principles underlying the spatial layout of an economy.
