"As a young man, my fondest dream was to become a geographer. However, while working at the customs office, I thought deeply about the matter and concluded it was far too difficult a subject. I then turned to Physics as a substitute." Albert Einstein, great scientist is reported to have said in despair about Geography. The present series aptly titled “Geography Made Simple” is our humble attempt at removing fear of Geography subject from minds of students by presenting books that are written in lucid, simple and easy-to-understand language. The present eBook in full colours caters to needs of students of as diverse a field as Economic Geography, International Trade, Management, Economics, Political Economy, Commerce, Industrial Geography, Regional planning and development, International Business Management, Foreign Trade, International Finance, Trade and Transport Geography, etc. This evergreen book has stood the test of time since its first edition was published in October, 2002. This book is recommended as a reference-book by Geography teachers and used as a text-book by undergrads and postgraduate students even today. This second edition carries a 'Preface' by Jaiprakash Jadhav, Head of Geography Department, Dr. D. Y. Patil Arts, Commerce & Science College, Pimpri in Pune, India. Praise for Geography, Economics & Economic Geography “Hello, Parmar! Thanks for introducing the book of Economic Geography. I got it from my friend. I am modern college student of MA. I am Ram Shripati Payal.”-Ram Shripati Payal, student of Modern College, Pune “Hi there! I just clicked on the website where your book will appear next month. I will try to do it next month…as I’m teaching Economic Geography in the fall at CWU. I haven’t used a text in a couple of years because I didn’t like any on the market. Thanks for your help!”-Ms Nancy, Central Washington University Jaiprakash Jadhav, Head of Geography Department, Dr. D. Y. Patil Arts, Commerce & Science College, Pimpri had presented in 2003 a few hardcopies of this eBook to the members of national accreditation agency, the National Assessment and Accreditation Council (NAAC) as the evidence of high quality of education at the College. He later personally acknowledged before Sher Singh Parmar that outstanding quality of his book made NAAC give a higher credible rating to Geography Department, Dr. D. Y. Patil Arts, Commerce & Science College. Noteworthy Features Possibly until the publication of the second edition of the book “Geography, Economics and Economic Geography” by Sher Singh Parmar in October, 2003, the Indian intelligentsia, Indian and the world mass media had not attributed the liberalization of the Indian economy to the Balance-of-Payment Crisis that India had faced in the year 1991. It was possibly for the first time in the world that this second edition by Sher Singh Parmar correctly pointed out, described and explained the balance-of-payment crisis faced by the Indian government in 1991 to be the main cause that had forced India into adopting the liberalization-mode for the Indian economy. The book contains for the first time many of the Economic terms/jargons that have been rephrased/paraphrased/elaborated/redefined/repurposed to make these Economic terms inclusive, better and more understandable. For example, see following definition of the term Trade included in this e-book: "10.2 BASIC CONCEPTS 1. TRADE: Exchange of goods, services or information." The definition of TRADE given above by Sher Singh Parmar is more inclusive than the following definition of TRADE that had been given until then in numerous Standard Texts/Books on subject of Economics: "TRADE: Exchange of goods" The book introduces altogether new fresh concepts called idealised perfectly balanced pentagonal model and realistic isostasically balanced amorphous model to understand economic landscapes. Author applies these two economic models to real life situations past and present to successfully build his thesis that "...even a slight imbalance in economic landscapes at any level is sufficient enough to engineer political and other problems. World peace may be achieved if the whole globe is developed into a perfectly balanced economic landscape." He brings in new insight to understand and appreciate dignity of labour in light of these new concepts. This new conceptual framework introduced by author definitely helps us understand and resolve present day problems in much better and peaceful ways. The book introduces new concepts of Economic Liberalization Model, Four Stages of Globalization model, and Tricellular LPG model. These models give us fresh incisive insight into vexing issues of Globalization, Liberalization, and Privatisation. Worth mentioning also is author's creative description, elaboration, and explanation of factors of international trade and business.

This volume in the celebrated Critical Introductions to Geography series introduces readers to the vibrant discipline of economic geography. The authors provide an original definition of the discipline, and they make a strong case for its vital importance in understanding the dynamic interconnections, movements, and emerging trends shaping our globalized world. Economic Geography addresses the key theories and methods that form the basis of the discipline, and describes its “communities of practice” and relations to related fields including economics and sociology. Numerous illustrative examples explore how economic geographers examine the world and how and why the discipline takes the forms it does, demonstrating the critical value of economic geography to making sense of globalization, uneven development, money and finance, urbanization, environmental change, and industrial and technological transformation. Engaging and thought-provoking, Economic Geography: A Critical Introduction is the ideal resource for students studying across a range of subject areas, as well as the general reader with an interest in world affairs and economics.

The impact of economic geography both within and beyond the wider field of geography has been constrained in the past by its own limitations. Drawing together the work of several eminent geographers this superb collection assesses the current state of knowledge in the sub discipline and its future direction. In doing so, the contributors show how economic geographers have offered explanations that affect places and lives in the broader context of the global economy. Offering a discussion of theoretical constructs and methodologies with the purpose to show the need to combine different approaches in understanding spatial (inter) dependencies, contributors also demonstrate the need to engage with multiple audiences, and within this context they proceed to examine how geographers have interfaced with businesses and policy. This excellent collection moves economic geography from a preoccupation with theory towards more rigorous empirical research with greater relevance for public policy. With excellent breadth of coverage, it provides an outstanding introduction to research topics and approaches.

The uneven geographical distribution of economic activities is a huge challenge worldwide and also for the European Union. In Krugman’s New Economic Geography economic systems have a simple spatial structure. This book shows that more sophisticated models should visualise the EU as an evolving trade network with a specific topology and different aggregation levels. At the highest level, economic geography models give a bird eye’s view of spatial dynamics. At a medium level, institutions shape the economy and the structure of (financial and labour) markets. At the lowest level, individual decisions interact with the economic, social and institutional environment; the focus is on firms’ decision on location and innovation. Such multilevel models exhibit complex dynamic patterns – path dependence, cumulative causation, hysteresis – on a network structure; and specific analytic tools are necessary for studying strategic interaction, heterogeneity and nonlinearities.

This book is a serious attempt to cover all of the relevant subdisciplines in the geographical economics framework. . . I would recommend the book to students of economic geography, regional economics, and related disciplines. Frans Boekema, Journal of Regional Science . . . this book is empirically and theoretically comprehensive in its scope. The nearly eighteen authors who have contributed to this book present a truly transatlantic perspective on NEG. . . this volume will be extremely useful to those dealing with rigorous modelling to examine spatial issues in economics, geography and planning. Rajiv Thakur, Regional Science Policy and Practice I recommend the book. . . The papers of a high quality, well written and organized; empirical analyses are based on the most advanced empirical techniques, and the reader enjoys their application. Roberta Capello, Growth and Change A very interesting volume indeed, recommended reading for everyone interested in theorizing space in economics or working in the empirical spatial-economic research arena. Economic Geography Research Group This important book explores original and alternative directions for economic geography following the revolution precipitated by the advent of so-called new economic geography (NEG). Whilst, to some extent, the volume could be regarded as part of the inevitable creative destruction of NEG theory, it does promote the continuing role of theoretical and empirical contributions within spatial economic analysis, in which the rationale of scientific analysis and economic logic maintain a central place. With contributions from leading experts in the field, the book presents a comprehensive analysis of the extent to which NEG theory is supported in the real world. By exploring whether NEG theory can be effectively applied to provide practical insights, the authors highlight novel approaches, emerging trends, and promising new lines of enquiry in the wake of advances made by NEG. Rigorous yet engaging, this book will be an essential tool for academics and researchers specialising in regional studies, urban and spatial economics and economic geography. It will also have widespread appeal amongst policymakers involved in planning and land use.

It balances coverage of 'traditional' areas such as regional development and labour markets with insight into new and evolving topics like neoliberalism, consumption, creativity and alternative economic practices. An Introduction to Economic Geography is an essential textbook for undergraduate students taking courses in Economic Geography, Globalisation Studies and more broadly in Human Geography.

Economic Geographies Of Globalisation written by Martin Sokol and has been published by Edward Elgar Publishing this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2011 with Political Science categories.
This introductory text is about economic geography and globalization in all their different stripes and colours. It introduces clearly the subject matters in economic geography through a wide range of important conceptual lenses and theoretical perspectives. It does so without a facts-based rendition of what globalization actually is. Instead, Sokol offers a refreshingly light touch on the various approaches in understanding contemporary economic geographies and applies these conceptual insights, in a helpful and straightforward manner, to our appreciation of such key challenges of globalization as inequality, instability, and uneven development. It is both wide in coverage and contemporary in relevance. The text will be well adopted in courses on economic geography, global studies, development studies, and international political economy. Henry Yeung, National University of Singapore Telling it like it is in a direct and engaging style, this is a book without preconceptions. It is a vital intervention that makes sense of the sorry state of the contemporary global economy and its formative geographies and shows what is involved in constructing an alternative. Roger Lee, Queen Mary University of London, UK This well-researched book provides a concise contribution to a large-scale debate on economic globalisation. Martin Sokol introduces key theoretical approaches that help us to understand how economies work, why they suffer recessions and crises, and why economic inequalities at various levels are growing in the context of globalisation. He introduces key economic geography concepts and theories, demonstrating their application to our contemporary globalising world. The role that economic geography may play in informing policymaking is highlighted, and debates surrounding the recent global financial and economic crisis are expounded. This highly accessible book will prove an essential reference tool for academics, students and researchers focusing on geography, economics, planning and regional development, development studies, international politics and international business. Policymakers and practitioners in local, regional and national authorities, international bodies and non-governmental organisations will also find this book to be an invaluable resource.

Economic Geography is the most complete, up-to-date textbook available on the important new field of spatial economics. This book fills a gap by providing advanced undergraduate and graduate students with the latest research and methodologies in an accessible and comprehensive way. It is an indispensable reference for researchers in economic geography, regional and urban economics, international trade, and applied econometrics, and can serve as a resource for economists in government. Economic Geography presents advances in economic theory that explain why, despite the increasing mobility of commodities, ideas, and people, the diffusion of economic activity is very unequal and remains agglomerated in a limited number of spatial entities. The book complements theoretical analysis with detailed discussions of the empirics of the economics of agglomeration, offering a mix of theoretical and empirical research that gives a unique perspective on spatial disparities. It reveals how location continues to matter for trade and economic development, yet how economic integration is transforming the global economy into an economic space in which activities are performed within large metropolitan areas exchanging goods, skills, and information. Economic Geography examines the future implications of this evolution in the spatial economy and relates them to other major social and economic trends. Provides a complete introduction to economic geography Explains the latest theory and methodologies Covers the empirics of agglomeration, from spatial concentration measurement to structural estimations of economic geography models Includes history and background of the field Serves as a textbook for students and a resource for professionals
