Services sectors' agglomeration in the European Union, its development over time, its driving factors and dynamic tendencies will be empirically investigated in this study. Locational gini coefficients are computed taking EU-KLEMS data for 14 European countries covering 22 services sectors over...

We investigate services sectors’ concentration and specialization patterns across the European member countries. Concentration and specialization are measured by Balassa indices, which in turn are constructed with employment data. In general, the tendency for the health and social sector is to...
