Agglomeration Economies of China's Three Major Urban Agglomerations, 1994–2008

International Area Review, 2010
It is considered that the result of agglomeration in a region is natural enough to provide high level of benefits for the firms and agents located in the region, so the study measures the potential benefits. Efficiency, technological progress and increasing returns to scale are examined through empirical analysis of most developed three urban ...

Agglomeration Economies and the Built Environment: Evidence from Specialized Buildings and Anchor Tenants

Journal of Urban Economics
Previous work on agglomeration economies ignores the built environment. This paper shows that the built environment matters, especially for commercial sectors that dominate city centers. Buildings are specialized beyond random assignment, in part because

The Micro-Empirics of Agglomeration Economies

2007
Economics is the study of the allocation of scarce resources. Urban economics focuses on the allocation of resources across space. In considering this sort of resource allocation, a striking fact becomes apparent immediately: economic activity is highly concentrated.

Economies and Diseconomies of Agglomeration

1995
The paradox in urban economics over the last thirty years is that agglomeration economies (and diseconomies) are the driving force behind explanations of geographical concentration of economic activity and population within cities, yet remain something of a black box. There have been, as we shall see, several diverse attempts to measure these economies,

Determinants of agglomeration economies and diseconomies:

Socio-Economic Planning Sciences, 2001
Abstract This paper presents an empirical study on the economies and diseconomies caused by the agglomeration of population and industries in the Tokyo metropolitan area. Through an econometric estimation, it is confirmed that while the economies of agglomeration resulted mainly from the spatial concentration of corporate headquarters, financial ...

Economies of transport density and industrial agglomeration

Regional Science and Urban Economics, 2002
Abstract This paper develops a model of a spatial economy in which interregional trade patterns and the structure of the transport network are determined endogenously as a result of the interaction between industrial location behavior and increasing returns in transportation, in particular, economies of transport density .
