In contrast to what several papers have argued recently, we show that firm heterogeneity fosters agglomeration of … propensity to export. This renders the home market more important speaking against agglomeration. We also relate changes in firm …

The introduction of horizontal multi-region firms dampens the strong agglomeration …, agglomeration tendencies are strengthened.

This paper studies how firm heterogeneity in terms of productivity affects the balance between agglomeration and … endogenous markups. It shows that firm heterogeneity matters. However, whether it shifts the balance from agglomeration to … ‘evenness’. Accordingly, the role of firm heterogeneity in selection models of agglomeration can not be fully understood without …
