Agglomeration and networks in spatial economies
We consider the parallel developments in the economics of agglomeration and the economics of networks.

متن کاملSpatial Concentration in The Irish Pharmaceutical Industry: The Role of Government Intervention and Agglomeration Economies
This paper examines the spatial pattern of the pharmaceutical industry in Ireland and in particular the drivers accounting for spatial concentration in the industry. 1 Spatial concentration indexes indicate a particularly high level of spatial concentration in one of the industry's sub-sectors, namely, drug substance production. This high level of concentration has been attributed to the operat...
متن کاملKnowledge Externalities , Agglomeration Economies , and Employment Growth in Dutch Cities
This paper extends the work of Glaeser et al. (1992) by looking at effects of agglomeration economies on employment growth in Dutch city-industries and in very small (postal) zip code-industries in the Dutch province of South-Holland. At both levels of geographic detail, findings are broadly consistent with results from the earlier study in that employment growth is enhanced by industrial diver...
متن کاملMarket Structure, Financial Dependence and Industrial Growth: Evidence from the Banking Industry in Emerging Asian Economies
In this study, we examine the role of market structure for growth in financially dependent industries from 10 emerging Asian economies over the period of 1995-2011. Our approach departs from existing studies in that we apply four alternative measures of market structure based on structural and non-structural approaches and compare their outcomes. Results indicate that higher bank concentration ...
متن کاملLocation Strategies for Agglomeration Economies
Geographically concentrated industry activity creates pools of skilled labor and specialized suppliers, and increases opportunities for knowledge spillovers. The strategic value of these agglomeration economies may vary by firm, depending upon the relative value of each economy, and upon firm and agglomeration economy traits. To better determine when a firm will be attracted to agglomeration ec...
