REVERSE COMMUTATION IN A MONOCENTRIC CITY*
用一个城市土地利用的一般均衡多期线性规划模型,证明反向通勤是应对经济变化的理性选择,能避免土地利用变更的成本。
ABSTRACT. A general equilibrium multiperiod linear programming model of urban land use is used to identify reverse commutation as a rational response to economic change. Information about future economic conditions is complete, and capital is replaceable at finite cost. Export mixes are defined exogenously, and temporal shifts between activities of different land intensities are shown to induce reverse commutes as one way of avoiding the cost of land use change.
