Endogenous formation of a city without agglomerative externalities or marketimperfections: marketplaces in a regional economy

Article Abstract:

A general equilibrium model describing the development of acity without agglomerative externalities or market imperfections is developed and analyzed. The model imposes interregional transactions costs and redefines the social optimum concept. It is shown that such a set-up generates a unitary central business district. In addition, the absence of trust in the economy mayyield a standard monocentric city.
