• Functional specialisation in trade (2018, background): “But functions are different from industries and there is no simple one-to-one mapping, as emphasised in earlier literature on urban development, such as Duranton and Puga (2005) and Barbour and Markusen (2007).”
• Why and where do headquarters move (2009, unknown): “The results we obtain are in line with recent economic geography models (Ekholm and Forslid 2001, Duranton and Puga 2005; Fujita and Thisse 2005).”
• The determinants of regional specialisation in business services: agglomeration economies, vertical linkages and innovation (2015, background): “– Jacobs’ externalities deriving from the variety of activities within urban contexts (Jacobs, 1969; Duranton and Puga, 2000; Duranton and Puga, 2005).”
• The Number Average Size Rule: A New Empirical Relationship between Industrial Location and City Size (2008, unknown): “However, there have so far been very few formal empirical studies of intra-firm spatial organizations (with the notable exception of Duranton and Puga, 2005, and Duranton and Overman, 2007).”
• Micro-Foundations of Urban Agglomeration Economies (2003, unknown): “Duranton and Puga (2001a) give evidence of a strong transformation of the urban structure of the United States from a mainly sectoral to a mainly functional specialisation.”
• Separate Worlds? Explaining the current wave of regional economic polarization (2018, unknown): “A number of authors have documented the precipitous decline in trade costs that underlie waves of geographical change (Glaeser and Ponzetto, 2010; Duranton and Puga, 2005; Beaudry, Doms, Lewis, 2010; Anderson, van Wincoop, 2004).”
• Agglomeration, clusters, and industrial policy (2013, background): “Other researchers (Ellison and Glaeser, 1997; Duranton and Puga, 2005; Peri, 2005; Crescenzi et al. , 2007; Lobo and Strumsky, 2008; Breschi and Lissoni, 2009; Ellison et al. , 2010) have considered the scope of such spillovers and specifically whether diverse or specialized environments lead to…”
