This book investigates the industrial agglomeration and dispersion
within a country under trade liberalization and interregional
integration by considering both economic forces and geographical
elements. Chapter 1 gives a brief introduction about the
background, research topics and organizations in this book. Chapter
2 provides a detailed explanation of Krugman's new economic
geography (NEG) model and reviews the subsequent refinements of the
original model from mainly geographical viewpoints. Chapter 3
extends Krugman's original model to a two-country and three-region
case where the domestic regions are fully asymmetrical in terms of
their sizes and accessibilities to global markets. To better
explain the reality of developing countries, chapter 4 presents an
analytical model which assumes that unskilled workers are employed
in both traditional and manufacturing sectors. Chapter 5
empirically investigates the home market effect (HME) in terms of
wages in the case of China by using panel data for the period
1980-2012. Chapter 6 gives a summary and implication about the
findings and conclusions in this book.
