Productivity growth in the Old and New Europe: the role of agglomeration externalities (2013, unknown): “For a critical review of different methodologies applied to identifying correctly the causal relationship between agglomeration and productivity one can refer to Combes et al. (2011). 4An inverted-U shape of productivity gains from agglomeration is found in the study for China by Au and Henderson (2”
The birth of edge cities in China: Measuring the effects of industrial parks policy (2017, unknown): “Physical proxmity between firms who seek to co-agglomerate facilitates loal economic growth through stimulating trade by lowering trans- ortation costs and by facilitating learning and social interaction Combes et al., 2011 ).”
