THE CENTRE-PERIPHERICAL MODEL WITH DIFFERENT VALUES OF THE COSTS OF TRANSPORT AT THE INDUSTRIAL AND AGRICULTURAL GOODS
Abstract
This item refers to the cent re-peripherical model due to Paul Krugman (1991) with all its merits in grounding of the economic crowdings, and which at the same time meant also the arising of a new field in the economic theory, known as “The New Economic Geography”. They also criticized it for the symmetry of the transport costs of the industrial and agricultural products. These criticisms could be avoid by improving the model, so as it is trying in this work. Simultaneously, the achieving of an informatics program is useful in making numerical simulations, necessary for the study of the model, taking into acc ount that the model could not be analytically solved. Key words : core-peripherical model, transport costs, industrial products, agricultural products.
