Geographical concentration of production by leading firms in EU manufacturing

Leo Sleuwaegen and Reinhilde Veugelers

Chapter 1 in Multinational Firms’ Location and the New Economic Geography, 2004 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This book analyses how foreign direct investors choose their locations, whilst exploring the forces which shape international economic geography. Although these two issues are, to some extent, inter-related, researchers have only recently acknowledged the similarity of economic geography and international business approaches to the empirical assessment of likely causes of the degree of spatial concentration observed in many modern industries.
