Abstract
ABSTRACT We investigate the cumulative causation between agglomeration of skilled workers and technological growth across cities with human capital externalities and agglomeration economies. We classify industry sectors in terms of technological growth: a modern sector with improving technology and a traditional sector with mature technology. Our model includes multiple specialization patterns of modern and traditional sectors across cities. We show that both ‘the cumulative causation between the agglomeration of skilled workers and technological growth’ and ‘the impacts of transport costs on that causation’ differ across industrial specialization patterns, implying that industrial specialization patterns matter for technological growth.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
