Spatial Economics (The International Library of Critical Writings in Economics series, 188)

This authoritative two-volume collection presents a selection of seminal articles investigating the spatial aspect of economic processes and development. Special attention is given to the economics of agglomeration and examining the fundamental issue of the formation and concentration of economic activity in geographical space. These volumes comprise the most important articles published during the last 50 years on the economic modelling of endogenous mechanisms leading to agglomeration. Spatial Economics will be essential reading for students and researchers alike.
