Central place theory and its reemergence in regional science
Abstract This paper presents an interdisciplinary review—from the perspectives of geography, economics, and urban planning—of the literature on central place theory (CPT) and its important role in regional science. Along the way, CPT is compared to a more recent description/explanation of the space economy, the new economic geography (NEG). The main arguments of the paper are that for a host of reasons: (i) CPT is ripe for reemergence and; (ii) NEG models are best viewed as complements to, not competitors of, CPT. Some general observations for future research in regional science follow from these conclusions.
