ABSTRACT

In conclusion, note that the G uesnerie-O ddou, G reenbergW eber, and Stahl-V araiya models have no spatial dimension-e.g., there are no locationally-fixed factors in these models. Previous sections have indicated the im portant role such factors can play in determining equilibrium locations and in influencing local govern­ ment decisionmaking. It might therefore be of interest to extend these models to a spatial setting.
