- The Rise of Second-Rank Cities: What Role for Agglomeration Economies? (2015, background): “…cities grow economically without a physical expansion: their location in polycentric urban systems substitutes for their individual physical size (Meijers & Burger, 2010), since borrowed size allows single cities to upgrade their economic functions without necessarily increasing their…”
- Urban Networks: Connecting Markets, People, and Ideas (2016, background): “More broadly, Meijers and Burger (2010) study city productivity and find that interconnected smaller cities benefit from network externalities, but that these are insuffi cient to substitute fully for the agglomeration economies of a single larger city.”
- Questioning Polycentric Development and its Effects. Issues of Definition and Measurement for the Italian NUTS-2 Regions (2012, neutral): “The main idea at the base of the virtuous effects attributed to polycentricity is that networks externalities that take place within regions can substitute simple agglomeration externalities, by allowing the emergence of regionalised urbanisation economies (Meijers and Burger, 2010).”
- How did urban polycentricity and dispersion affect economic productivity? A case study of 306 Chinese cities (2018, methodology): “Recent urban theories have in various ways contemplated that how urban form could affect economic competitiveness, social cohesion, and environmental sustainability of cities (Anas, Arnott, & Small, 1998; Fujita & Thisse, 2002; McMillen, 2001; Meijers & Burger, 2010; Xiao, Orford, & Webster, 2016).”
- Stretching the concept of ‘borrowed size’ (2017, background): “According to Partridge et al. (2008), factors relevant to metropolitan growth such as agglomeration, industry mix and congestion also hold for smaller cities, though the role that these factors play is mediated by a city’s proximity to large metropolitan areas.”
