Economists as geographers and geographers as something else: on the changing conception of distance in geography and economics
这篇论文探讨了地理学家和经济学家在研究经济活动区位时路径不同但结果相似的现象，指出这种相似性背后隐藏着不同的解释和矛盾的政策，呼吁加强两学科间的互动。
In the lifetime of the Journal of Economic Geography geographers and economists have followed diverging paths to the study of the location of economic activity which, paradoxically, have resulted in very similar spatial configurations: a world dominated by large metropoli, where intermediate and peripheral spaces tend to matter less and less. These similar outcomes hide, however, different explanations and lead to different and contradictory policies. Such a situation raises both important questions and highlights the limitations of narrowly-defined disciplinary approaches, calling for a greater interaction between the two disciplines. © The Author (2010).
