Collaborating in future states—Contextual instability, paradigmatic remaking, and public policy
Abstract Collaboration is ubiquitous in public policy life, with its presence and profile determined by prevailing governance conditions. Commitments to globalisation and marketisation in the latter part of the 20th century marked the onset of an era defined by collaboration, between and across tiers and spheres of government, with non‐state actors ...

Resilience in a noisy urban system
Abstract The ability of cities to recuperate from disturbances and return to their evolutionary pathways depends, first and foremost, on the type of damage that the shock created. But in addition, it depends on how information is transmitted in the urban system and on how noise filters distort the information that reaches economic agents.

The benefits and costs of agglomeration: insights from economics and complexity [PDF]
There are many benefits and costs that come from people and firms clustering together in space. Agglomeration economies, in particular, are the manifestation of centripetal forces that make larger cities disproportionately more wealthy than smaller cities, pulling together individuals and firms in close physical proximity.

Modélisation spatiale de la formation des agglomérations dans la zone algéroise [PDF]
The goal of this study is to analyze the dynamics underlying Algiers urban area formation with reference to The New Economic Geography (NEG) theories and more precisely to the paper of Paul Krugman (1991), "Increasing returns and economic geography" which explains the mechanisms of economic activities concentration through two types of forces ...

Agglomeration Externalities and Urban Growth Controls [PDF]
Should constraints on urban expansion be relaxed because of external agglomeration economies? In a system of heterogeneous cities, we demonstrate that second-best land use policy consists of a tax on city creation and a subsidy (tax) on urban development

Second-Best Cost-Benefit Analysis in Monopolistic Competition Models of Urban Agglomeration [PDF]
経済学 / EconomicsMany sources of urban agglomeration involve departures from the first-best world. By modeling the microstructure of agglomeration economies, we derive second-best benefit evaluation formulae for urban transportation improvements. Previous
