Since the seventies a restructuration of the industry has taken place, generating changes in the industriallocation; therefore rural space has undergone a remarkable but limited industrialisation process. - (AAG)
The location theory of firm revisited impacts of rising energy prices in Energy problems and regional development.
The impact of rising energy prices on the locational pattern of industries is analyzed by a simple two-firm straight line location model. The concavity of average cost function of final consumer's good with respect to locational variables is proved
for the case of linear homogeneous Cobb-Douglas production functions and this leads to the possible three cases of end-point location. The rise in energy prices induces double location at the market or double location at the port instead of separate location
of two industries, i.e., intermediate good industry and consumer's good industry.
The location of branch offices of manufacturing industries in Japan
Branch plant ; Enterprise ; Industriallocation ; Industry ; Japan ; Urban system
Entreprise ; Industrie ; Japon ; Localisation industrielle ; Succursale ; Système urbain
The offices location is examined under the existing hierarchical (Christaller-type) urban system. This is analyzed by mainly comparison between industries. For example, the A. indicates the next point as an important result. From a nationwide
Towards a relational view on industriallocation theory
Decision ; Flexibility ; Industriallocation ; Location choice ; Theory
The A. puts forward a relational view on industriallocation theory. Such an approach implies that site selection and suitability should be defined and modelled as a matching problem. It involves taking into account the links between the spatial
Available area for location of industry is getting fewer and more valuable in the Great Plain, too. Therefore owing to the natural pace of development the problems concerning modern industriallocation in this area require a close and detailed study
Question de la localisation des industries extractives (sablières, gravières et carrières de calcaire) dans la ville de Caledon située dans l'agglomération de Toronto en Ontario du sud, au Canada.
there are similarities in locational strategies at the level of the assemblers, distinct differences are emerging in terms of the location of Japanese component firms. European assemblers are to some extent following similar peripheral location strategies to those
The formation and the development of central cities based on the theory of the location of industries : with reference to Weber's theory of the location of industries
The author discusses three topics in relation to the historical approach. First, in order to deal with the concentration of industries and the formation and the development of central cities, he began with the review of theoretical framework
of the historical method. Secondly, he examined the traditional concepts of the locational unit, and he proved evaluations of them. Finally, the orientation of the locational, unit is analyzed in accordance with Weber's method, namely, transport orientation, labor
Locational dynamics and spatial structures in the Japanese manufacturing industries : a review on the Japanese industrial restructuring process of leading sectors
This paper compares some of the methodological and empirical studies in western countries and Japan, especially those which examine locational dynamics and spatial structures of leading industries in the recent restructuring process. - (SGA)

Agglomération ; Complexe industriel ; District industriel ; Electronique ; Entreprise ; Espagne ; Exportation ; Industrie de pointe ; Localisation industrielle ; Madrid ; Recherche-développement
The relationship between intra-metropolitan location, research and development and the outsourcing of production is analysed to determine differences in, and the supportive character of, intra-metropolitan areas for high-technology production
. Madrid's electronic industries have shown a remarkable resilience, in the face of extensive economic restructuring and the change in trade regimes that has accompanied continental integration.
