Much of the world's economic activity takes place in between cities
and nations - the geographical containers that we have taken for
granted for hundreds of years now. In this book Nicholas Phelps
provides a guide to this uncharted territory within urban and
economic geography. He highlights the importance of intermediary
actors and processes in shaping this economy in between. From the
airports, shopping malls, and office parks that have sprung up on
the road between cities, to work done on the move in cars and
trains, to the decisions made by internationally mobile networks of
experts in conferences and negotiations. The geography of the
economy in between is revealed as one involving four recurring and
coexisting economic geographical formations - the agglomeration,
the enclave, the networks, and the arena. Phelps sets out a
multidisciplinary perspective and agenda on the question of the
how, why, and where much contemporary economic activity takes
place.
