The Empirics of Agglomeration Economies [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2014 We propose an integrated framework to discuss the empirical literature on the local determinants of agglomeration effects. We start by presenting the theoretical mechanisms that ground individual and aggregate empirical specifications. We gradually introduce static effects, dynamic effects, and workers' endogenous location choices.

Tracing the Evolution of Agglomeration Economies: Spain, 1860–1991 [PDF]
The Journal of Economic History, 2018 Using district population in Spain between 1860 and 1991, recorded approximately every decade, this article examines whether initial population affects subsequent population growth. While such a relationship between these two variables hardly existed during the second half of the nineteenth century, this link increased significantly between 1910 and ...

Microfoundations of Urban Agglomeration Economies [PDF]
, 2003 This Paper studies the theoretical micro-foundations of urban agglomeration economies. We distinguish three types of micro-foundations, based on sharing, matching, and learning mechanisms. For each of these three categories, we develop one or more core models in detail and discuss the literature in relation to those models.

Sectoral Agglomeration Economies in a Panel of European Regions [PDF]
Regional Science and Urban Economics, 2008 We estimate agglomeration economies, defined as the effect of density on labour productivity in European regions. The analysis of Ciccone (2002) is extended in two main ways.
