In this paper we explore the relationship between the presence of agglomeration economies and regional economic growth in Spain during the period 1870-1930.

In doing so, we present alternative indicators for agglomeration economies and estimate conditional growth regressions at province (NUTS3) level. In line with new economic geography models, agglomeration economies in a context of market integration widened regional i…

The effect of the financialisation in the production of urban s…

Son muy pocos los trabajos que se han elaborado con relación a los clústeres de servicios, pues en la investigación ha dominado el interés la industria manufacturera (K…
