The proposed method overcomes the limitations of the Turing … (1952) approach that has been used to analyze the emergence of agglomeration in the multi-regional core-periphery (CP) model … of Krugman (1993, 1996). In other words, the proposed method allows us to examine whether agglomeration of mobile factors …

In 2008, Paul Krugman from Princeton University was awarded the Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences by the Central Bank of Sweden, for his “analysis of trade patterns and location of economic activity”. In this paper we survey the literature, known as the New Economic Geography (NEG), launched...

The New Economic Geography framework supports the idea that economic integration plays an important role in explaining urban concentration. By using Fujita et al. (1999) as a theoretical motivation, and information on the 5 most important cities of 84 countries, we find that the size of main...
