Chapter Chapter 1 in Employment Location in Cities and Regions, 2013, pp 1-8 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In this chapter the state-of-the-art of the modelling of the spatial distribution of employment in cities and regions is presented. Different economic approaches are described such as input–output analysis; Computable General Equilibrium models and utility maximising behaviour, translated into logit functions as probabilities. The models presented here are rich in content and build on decades of evolution.
