The productivity effects of polycentricity: A systematic analysis of urban regions in Europe
We focus on the extent to which polycentric urban regions can substitute for the agglomeration economies provided by large cities. Building on an open‐source software tool that helps identifying polycentric developments in urban regions, we analyze the ...
