研究19世纪西班牙区域工业化差异的原因,发现比较优势和规模报酬递增效应几乎完全解释了各地区工业化水平的差异,部分地区的工业化不足主要源于要素禀赋和缺乏本土市场效应。

Abstract

Spain provides an opportunity to study the causes of regional differences in industrial development over the nineteenth century. As transportation costs decreased and barriers to domestic trade were eliminated, Spanish manufacturing became increasingly concentrated in a few regions. This article combines Heckscher-Ohlin and economic-geography frameworks and finds that comparative-advantage and increasing-return effects were economically very significant and practically explained all differences in industrialization levels across regions. The deficits of some regions in terms of industrialization appear to have been largely attributable to their factor endowments and the absence of home-market effects for modern industries.
