Urban Networks: Connecting Markets, People, and Ideas (2016, background): “In equilibrium, the housing supplied will equal hc,t = Ψc,tT ζ c (τYc,t) 1−ζ , (13)”
Stretching the concept of ‘borrowed size’ (2017, background): “What is the aggregate of local outcomes at the network level in terms of functions and performance? The term ‘city network externalities’ (Boix and Trullen, 2007; Capello, 2000) appears to capture the essence of such network outcomes, as the term may refer to both positive (borrowed size dominating ”
Contrasts in agglomeration: proto-industrial, industrial and post-industrial forms compared (2003, background): “Batten (1995) and Kloosterman and Lambregts (2001) have drawn attention to the same examples cited by Alonso, while Capello (2000) suggests that patterns of urbanization in Italy’s Po Valley are based on ‘network externalities’.”
The Rise of Second-Rank Cities: What Role for Agglomeration Economies? (2015, background): “The concept of city networks adds to that of “borrowed size” the idea that size can be borrowed not only thanks to physical proximity to larger centres, but also thanks to relationships and flows of a mainly horizontal and non-hierarchical nature among complementary or similar centres, located far f”
Summing Small Cities Does Not Make a Large City: Polycentric Urban Regions and the Provision of Cultural, Leisure and Sports Amenities (2008, background): “As Capello argues, The limit that the medium-sized cities come up against, and which often makes them succumb vis-à-vis the great metropolis, is the limit of critical mass and centrality (Capello, 2000, p. 1926).”
Spatial Structure and Productivity in US Metropolitan Areas (2010, background): “externalities has been conceptualised and described by several scholars (Richardson, 1995; Coe and Townsend, 1998), thereby deploying terms such as ‘urban network externalities’ (Capello, 2000), ‘spatial externality fields’ (Phelps et al.”
Agglomeration Economies: Ambiguities and Confusions (2002, result): “It is also consistent with the work of Capello (2000) on `urban network externalities'.”
On the Economic Foundation of the Urban Network Paradigm: Spatial Integration, Functional Integration and Economic Complementarities within the Dutch Randstad (2009, background): “…literature and policy documents on urban networks use the concepts of spatial and functional integration and economic complementarities, only few empirical studies have qualitatively assessed how well the network model fits the reality of contemporary urban systems (Davoudi, 2003; Capello, 2000).”
