Trade Policy and Urban-Rural Inequalities In LDCS: A Simulation Experiment With A New Economic Geography Model

Author

  • Ayele Gelan

Abstract

The new economic geography model approach is used to model the relationships between trade policy and spatial agglomeration of production in the context of a small open developing economy. A general equilibrium model with interactions between centripetal forces and centrifugal forces that determine linkages between urban and rural regions is constructed [Paper presented at International Conference on Globalisation and Development].
