The AA. study the Paris region in order to explore the location patterns of 17 distinct high-order business service sectors. The location patterns of these services are found to be complex, each sector behaving differently and each sector displaying
combinations of concentration and dispersal. Hypotheses are put forward relating the various interlocking patterns to the markets, to the internal structure, and to the nature of each sector.
The AA. describe and analyze the distribution of sectoral employment over regions in Spain from 1985 to 1989, using a combination of shift-share analysis and location elasticities. New tendencies have appeared, which have been maintened
for the whole period. The growth in employment is located in the Mediterranean area, and is closely related to the services sector and to a modern and productive agriculture.

This paper proposes a novel method to analyse the key sectors of an economy that differs from the traditional approach in two aspects. First, it uses a supply-side approach comprising exogenous increases in sectoral productivity. Second, it uses
a computable general equilibrium model that captures the complete relations between the economic agents and their optimisation behaviour. The computable general equilibrium model, which assumes perfect competition and cleared markets of goods and factors
, allows to identify those sectors with the greatest impact on consumer’s welfare, which will be considered the key sectors of the economy. In particular, it applies this method to detect key sectors in two regional Spanish economies (Catalonia
