On the spatial scale of industrial agglomerations
Mori, Tomoya; Smith, Tony E. - 2015
Standard approaches to studying industrial agglomeration have been in terms of scalar measures of agglomeration within each industry. But such measures often fail to distinguish spatial scales of agglomeration. In a previous paper, Mori and Smith (2014) proposed a pair of quantitative measures...

Modelling migration and regional labour markets : an application of the new economic geography model RHOMOLOI
Brandsma, Andries; Kancs, D'Artis; Persyn, Damiaan - 2013
The present paper describes the modelling of regional labour markets in the newly developed dynamic spatial general equilibrium model RHOMOLO, where the labour market equilibrium is determined by firms' labour demand, a wage-curve determining unemployment, and interregional labour migration. The...

Spatial aspects of agent-based modeling of large economy
Suslov, Viktor Ivanovič; Domozhirov, Dmitry; … - 2015
The paper presents a pilot version of spatial agent-based model simulating the national economy of Russia. The model is supposed to be used for evaluation the effects of industrial and spatial policies. The object of modeling is multi-regional economic space of Russia in its interaction with...

Why do empirical tests tend to accept the NEG? : an alternative approach to the 'wage equation' in European regions
Bruna, Fernando - 2015 - Draft 1.2, September 2015
This paper posits a new approach to the 'wage equation' of the New Economic Geography (NEG). On one side, it is shown that the NEG provides a spatial explanation of marginal costs, instead of wages. On the other side, and focusing on the statistical properties of the data, it is explained why...

Application of a new spatial computable general equilibrium model for assessing strategic transport and land use development options in London and surrounding regions : paper to be...
Zhu, Jie; Jin, Ying; Echenique Talavera, Marcial - 2012
This paper reports the application of our new spatial computable general equilibrium (SCGE) model for analyzing the wider effects of strategic transport and land use development options. We examine the insights afforded by a SCGE model relative to those provided by existing land use and...

Second-best cost-benefit analysis with a microfoundation of urban agglomeration
Kanemoto, Yoshitsugu - 2011
Modeling a micro-structure of agglomeration economies, this article derives a second-best benefit evaluation formula for urban transportation improvements. Without explicitly modeling the sources of agglomeration economies, Venables (JTEP 2007) investigated the same problem. This article...
