Description
Papers from an October 1996 conference examine the history of the way in which spatial categories have been introduced into industrial organization, within the context of current movements towards globalization, regionalization, and localization. They re-examine the work of von Thnnen, Marshall, Weber, and Perroux, as well as less well-known authors such as Quesnay, George, and Hearn, and discuss related issues not strictly from the discipline of economics. Of interest to historians of economic thought, economists, and scholars of international economics. The editors are associate professors of economics at the University of Jean Monnet, France.
