International spatial economics

International spatial economics studies how economic activities, resources, and industries are distributed and interact across different countries and regions. It examines factors like location advantages, transportation costs, trade policies, and geographical features that influence where businesses establish themselves and how goods and services flow internationally. By analyzing these spatial patterns, the field helps explain global economic relationships, regional development disparities, and the impacts of infrastructure and technology on economic integration. Ultimately, it provides insights into how geography shapes international economic dynamics and influences prosperity and growth worldwide.
