In this chapter, we illustrate some classic spatial models. We provide a collection of the principal classic spatial models, by illustrating their characteristics and their main results. In particular, we discuss the Hotelling linear market and the Salop circular market, both under uniform...

Space is a crucial variable in any economic activity. Spatial Economics is the branch of economics that explicitly aims to incorporate the space dimension in the analysis of economic phenomena. From its beginning in the last century, Spatial Economics has contributed to the understanding of the...
