The study of regions in economics is an old tradition whose value has recently been rediscovered with the advent of local competition for attractive industries as well as the increasing responsibility of local, state, and national governments for development issues. This course explores how economic activity is distributed across space and investigates the implications of including spatial aspects in economic analysis. Prerequisites: Economics 51 and 52. B.
