Looking for multiple equilibria when geography matters : German city growth and the WWII shock
Bosker, E. Maarten; Brakman, Steven; Garretsen, Harry; … - 2005
Many modern trade and growth models are characterized by multiple equilibria. In theory the analysis of multiple equilibria is possible, but in practice it is difficult to test for the presence of multiple equilibria. Based on the methodology developed by Davis and Weinstein (2004) for the case...

The Crisis and Regional Resilience in Europe: On the Importance of Urbanization and Specialization
Brakman, Steven; Garretsen, Harry; van Marrewijk, Charles - 2014
Using a rich data set on the EU regions, we analyze the relevance of two possible determinants of a region’s resilience to shocks, the degree of urbanization and specialization. We take the Great Recession, the economic and financial crisis that started in 2008, as our shock and then analyze...

In explaining the uneven spatial distribution of economic activity, urban economics and new economic geography (NEG) dominate recent research in economics. A main difference between these two approaches is that NEG stresses the role of spatial linkages whereas urban economics does not do so. We...
