保罗·克鲁格曼（Paul Krugman）澄清了空间经济聚集和国家和国际层面区域不平衡的微观经济基础。他通过一系列非常原创的论文和书籍实现了这一目标，这些论文和书籍成功地将不完全竞争、收益递增和运输成本以新的、强有力的方式结合起来。然而，在新经济地理学中，并非所有东西都是全新的。准确地说，在城市经济学和区位理论方面，有几个不同的高质量的工作。本文的目的是通过经济学和区域科学这两个领域的视角，为经济地理学提供新的见解。(C)2008 Elsevier B.V.保留所有权利。
Paul Krugman has clarified the microeconomic underpinnings of both spatial economic agglomerations and regional imbalances at national and international levels. He has achieved this with a series of remarkably original papers and books that succeed in combining imperfect competition, increasing returns, and transportation costs in new and powerful ways. Yet, not everything was brand new in New Economic Geography. To be precise, several disparate pieces of high-quality work were available in urban economics and location theory. Our purpose in this paper is to shed new light on economic geography through the lenses of these two fields of economics and regional science. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
