3. A Brief Intro to Spatial Economics Spatial economics is concerned with the allocation of (scarce) resources over space and the location of economic activity: what, where, and why Spatial economics covers:  Location theory  Spatial competition  Regional and urban economics Some core questions:  Why are there cities?  Why do some regions prosper while others do not?  Why do we observe residential segregation?  Why do firms from the same industry cluster?  What are the drivers of investment?  How important are firing costs to explain unemployment?  What are the returns to education?

Blume, Palgrave Macmillan. http://www2.ef.jcu.cz/~klufova/spatial_economy/Palgrave_spatial_economics.pdf

5. Challenges for Spatial Economics Challenges in theory:  Unified general equilibrium approach to spatial economics  Microfoundations of trade costs  Theory of proximity Challenges in empirical work:  Develop new tools for spatial analysis  Understand the mechanisms behind facts  Distinguish between theories (factor endowments, urban systems and new geography) to explain regional patterns of economic activity

6. A New Vision of Spatial Economics Research Objective: Complex system Research Approach: Spatial analysis Research focus: Spatial economy A Spatial Study of Social Ecosystems Based on Economy Space + Economy + Society

7. The Fundamental Theory of Spatial Economics: Spatial Ecology Basic Assumptions ： -Degenerative system -Increasing ecological risks:  Environmental risk  Health risk  Social risk Core Indicators ： -Biodiversity -Culture diversity

8. Spatial Economics: A Core Component of Spatial Social Sciences  What are the spatial patterns of data?  What are the spatial trends over the time?  What are spatial interactions between different aspects of the society over the time and space?  What are the potential impacts of proposed actions on our complex systems?
