本文研究了运输价格如何以及为何相对于装运方向变得不平衡,以及这如何影响经济地理 结果表明,特定方向上的装运平衡运输价格是装运区域相对大小的非递减函数 此外,我们表明运输价格的方向性不平衡增加了对称模式稳定的可能性,并降低了核心-外围模式可持续的可能性 简而言之,不平衡充当了分散力 (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc保留所有权利
This paper examines how and why transport prices become imbalanced with respect to the direction of shipments and how this affects economic geography It is shown that the equilibrium transport price of the shipment in a particular direction is a nondecreasing function of the relative size of the embarkation region Furthermore we show that the directional Imbalance in transport prices increases the likelihood of the symmetric pattern being stable and decreases the likelihood of the core-periphery patterns being sustainable In short the imbalance acts as a dispersion force (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc All rights reserved
