As production and economic activities shaped the growth of cities during pre-industrial era, they are still most important factors explaining modern urbanization. Economic restructuring is being reshaped with agglomeration economies, bringing spatial it. Regional growth, emergence new centers foci formed in equilibria positive negative externalities agglomeration. Positive do not arise solely f...

Core equivalence and shrinking of the core results are well known for economies. The present paper establishes counterparts for bargaining economies, a specific class of production economies (finite and infinite) representing standard two-person bargaining games and their continuum counterparts as coalition production economies. Thereby we get core equivalence of the Nash solution. The results ...

Alternative economies respond to the precarious conditions underpinning the everyday lives of individuals, and their lack of access to and scarcity of resources and competences. Recently there has been increasing interest in the field of macromarketing towards such alternative forms of exchange and marketplaces. Nonetheless, current understandings of alternative economies remain fragmented. The...

Information Technology (IT) is an important resource that facilitates growth and development in both the developed and emerging economies. The increasing forces of globalization are creating a wider digital divide between the developed and emerging economies. The smaller emerging economies are the most venerable. Intense competition for IT resources means that these emerging economies would nee...

Prior laboratory experiments have studied general equilibrium economies constructed from “induced preferences” for artificial goods. We introduce new methods that allow us to study economies constructed instead from subjects’ actual, “homegrown” preferences. Our subjects reveal their preferences by choosing portfolios of Arrow securities from budget lines through fixed endowments for a series o...

The emergence of information technology (IT) projects for developing economies is becoming a trend, as developing economies are striving to achieve modernization and industrialization. The IT project environment in developing economies is complex and susceptible to the economies' unique social, cultural, political, and financial contexts. This study proposes a framework for identifying the risk...

We explore the impact of geographically bounded intra-firm spillovers (internal agglomeration economies) and geographically bounded inter-firm spillovers (external agglomeration economies) on firms’ location strategies. Using data from the Census Bureau’s Longitudinal Business Database and the U.S. Cluster Mapping Project, we analyze organic expansions of biopharmaceutical firms (by both new es...

The current research aims to contribute to the debate on whether China competes with its neighbouring economies for inward foreign direct investment (FDI). Our results indicate that China has not diverted inward FDI from other Asian economies as a whole. If we view FDI inflows in the region as part of systemic globalization strategies adopted by transnational corporations, China may in fact hav...

Some economies in the Former Soviet Union and Central and Eastern Europe (FSU&CEE) are known as cybercrime hotspots. FSU&CEE economies have shown complex and varied responses to cybercrimes due partly to the differential incentives and pressures they face. This study builds upon literatures on white-collar crime, institutional theory and international relations (IR)/international political econ...
