Spatial equilibrium : urban economics and geographic economics

The 2008-2009 lecture was a continuation of previous ones, aimed at providing a synthetic overview of the main chapters of economic theory at the beginning of the twenty-first century. The lecture was devoted to " l'équilibre spatial : économie urbaine et économie géographique ". Like previous years' lectures, it was based on the so-called " positive " economic viewpoint, as opposed to the " normative " economic viewpoint that will be adopted in the 2009-2010 lecture.
