Auteur(s) et Affiliation(s)



Description :
The paper reports on research measuring and describing the growth of three major industry ensembles in 12 metropolitan areas across the United States between 1977 and 1987. The results reveal major interregional differences in patterns of growth, decline and specialization and suggest that the sources of employment growth characterizing the 1980s may no longer be those of the 1990s.
