Services sectors' agglomeration and its interdependence with industrial agglomeration in the European Union
Krenz, Astrid - 2010
Services sectors' agglomeration in the European Union, its development over time, its driving factors and dynamic tendencies will be empirically investigated in this study. Locational gini coefficients are computed taking EU-KLEMS data for 14 European countries covering 22 services sectors over...
