Migration selectivity and the evolution of spatial inequality (2005, background): “…the new economic geography.3 In these models, as labor migrates in response to a real wage differential the size of the market grows in the destination region and, through a variety of mechanisms related to scale economies, the real wage in the destination region increases rather than decreases.”
Does University Quality Influence the Interregional Mobility of Students and Graduates? The Case of Italy (2014, background): “…universities (in terms of number of students) are, generally, located in the largest and wealthiest cities, where the opportunities offered to skilled and young graduates are relatively higher, giving rise to what is known as an ‘aggregation effect’ (KANBUR and RAPOPORT, 2005; VENABLES, 2005).”
Cities in the developing world (2005, background): “(In terms of figure 1 the PR(n) schedule is shifted up for the primate city, but not for 9 It is possible that point e is to left of point m, see Venables (2005).”
The continuing debate about urban bias (2010, methodology): “Henderson’s conclusion has more recently been endorsed by Henry Overman and Anthony Venables in a paper prepared for Department for International Development (DFID) (Overman and Venables, 2005).”
Do Public Transport Improvements Increase Agglomeration Economies? A Review of Literature and an Agenda for Research (2011, background): “Increasing the speed and reducing the monetary cost of travel increase the number of workers willing to participate in the labour force and willing to commute, which leads to increased productivity (Venables, 2005).”
FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT AND URBAN CONCENTRATIONS: UNBUNDLING SPATIAL LAGS a (2009, unknown): “2 Venables (2005) argues that spatial inequality is caused by natural advantages of some regions and by agglomeration forces inducing clustering of economic activity, but increasing returns to scale in cities can lead to sub-optimally sized urban structures.”
The Rise of the “City-region” Concept and its Development Policy Implications (2008, background): “In fact, most New Economic geography models show that with declining transportation costs (Puga, 1998; Venables, 2005) or increasing diversification in cities (Duranton & Puga, 2000, 2001; Dascher, 2002) agglomeration forces outweigh dispersion forces, giving rise both to a greater polarization with”
The spatial-temporal hierarchy of regional inequality of China (2010, background): “Such a neoclassical approach emphasizing convergence has once again been criticized and challenged (e.g., Silva, 2007; Venables, 2005).”
The spatial effects of trade openness: a survey (2011, methodology): “Another exercise in the same vein is the analysis of Fujita, Krugman and Venables (1999, chapter 18). They add a sectoral dimension to the Krugman-Livas Elizondo (1996) model.”
