Tourism and Industrial Agglomeration
Tourism generates increased income and employment in host countries and regions which substantially improves local economies. On the other hand, the manufacturing sector remains the most important part in regional and national economies. By explicitly embedding a nontraded good sector into a new economic geography model, we were able to investigate the interdependence between the tourism sector...
متن کاملAgricultural Sector and Industrial Agglomeration∗
In many developing countries, agriculture hires at least as many workers as manufacturing industries. We investigate an economic geography model in which agricultural goods are costly to transport and in which manufactures hire labor from the local agricultural sector as unskilled labor. Our conclusions show that the parameters in the agricultural sector are crucial to determine the spatial con...
متن کاملPollution Havens and Industrial Agglomeration
Pollution-intensive industries are generally characterized by imperfect competition, increasing returns to scale and large transportation costs. We investigate two countries, N and S, each with two sectors. Manufacturing generates cross-border pollution which reduces agricultural production. Firms can freely move across country borders, but not workers. First, we show that pollution lowers loca...
متن کاملTrends and Determinants of China’s Industrial Agglomeration
This paper investigates trends and determinants of the spatial concentration of China’s manufacturing industries using a large firm-level data for the time period of 1998 to 2005. It is found that the overall industrial agglomeration in China has increased steadily in recent years though it is still much lower than those of the well-developed market economies (such as United States, United King...
متن کاملParallel Agglomeration Strategies for Industrial Unstructured Solvers
An industrial aerospace code has been parallelised for execution on shared memory and distributed memory architectures. The flow solver uses an explicit time integration approach and utilises an agglomeration multigrid strategy to accelerate the convergence. A novel method has been used to efficiently parallelise the multigrid solver that also minimised any intrusion into the flow solver. The p...
