Agglomeration, Enterprise Size, And Productivity, Edward J. Feser
Agglomeration, Enterprise Size, And Productivity, Edward J. Feser
Edward J Feser
Much research on agglomeration economies, and particularly recent work that builds on Marshall's concept of the industrial district, postulates that benefits derived from proximity between businesses are strongest for small enterprises. This paper investigates this hypothesis, examining the degree to which local business externalities differ in magnitude and type among large and small enterprises in two U.S. manufacturing sectors. A four factor micro-level production function with oft-cited sources of agglomeration economies (local input supply, labor pools, knowledge spillovers) modeled as technology parameters and dummy variables representing varying definitions of plant size (and type, i.e., single or multi establishment unit) are …

On The Ellison–Glaeser Geographic Concentration Index, Edward J. Feser
On The Ellison–Glaeser Geographic Concentration Index, Edward J. Feser
Edward J Feser
I use confidential employment data to investigate the empirical properties of a recent industry geographic concentration index (and related index of industry co-agglomeration) proposed by Ellison and Glaeser (1997). The results show that Ellison and Glaeser’s theoretical finding that their concentration measures are robust to differences in the level of spatial aggregation in the underlying employment data does not generally hold in practice. This implies that sensitivity testing for alternative spatial units should accompany any analysis with the concentration measures.

Revegetating Desert Plant Communities, David A. Bainbridge
Revegetating Desert Plant Communities, David A. Bainbridge
David A Bainbridge
Desert revegetation is possible but not easy. Careful attention to plant production (root:shoot), site prep, planting, irrigation and aftercare can lead to good survival even under extreme desert conditions. Cost per survivor is a critical consideration.
Soil Pitting For Revegetation, David A. Bainbridge
Soil Pitting For Revegetation, David A. Bainbridge
David A Bainbridge
Soil pitting provides many benefits in ecological restoration of degraded lands. The pits capture rainwater, trap seeds and soil symbionts and protect seedlings from windblast.
Old And New Theories Of Industry Clusters, Edward J. Feser
Old And New Theories Of Industry Clusters, Edward J. Feser
Edward J Feser
The paper reviews the broad range of theories and ideas that constitute, often implicitly, the logic behind strategic cluster policies. The title of the paper notwithstanding, there is no theory of industry clusters, per se. Even Porter’s (1990) seminal contribution is more a theory of firm competitiveness than clusters. There is, instead, a variety of older and newer theories of 1) the interrelationships between economic actors that clusters describe, and 2) the implications of such interrelationships for economic growth and development. Industry clusters have proven a useful way of characterizing webs of relationships between and among firms and other institutions. …

Breadbox Water Heater Designs, David A. Bainbridge
Breadbox Water Heater Designs, David A. Bainbridge
David A Bainbridge
Integral solar water heaters (batch, breadbox, ICS) provide the most economical and reliable means of heating water. Simple designs can perform well and provide service for decades. Basic design principles include box insulation, orientation and control of heat loss.
Planning For Energy Conservation, David A. Bainbridge
Planning For Energy Conservation, David A. Bainbridge
David A Bainbridge
City planning can provide multiple benefits by considering energy conservation, solar orientation and local resource harvesting. Narrower streets reduce construction costs, reduce urban heat island impacts and are safer. Above ground drainage reduces costs and returns rainwater to groundwater.
