Geographical economics: a historical perspective

Primary tabs

Thisse, Jacques-François [UCL]

It is organized around three main ideas (and authors): (i) land use and urban economics (Thünen), (ii) the nature of competition across space (Hotelling), and (iii) new economic geography and the emergence of economic agglomerations (Krugman).
