Ciência Regional

Ainda falta aplicá-la aos nossos parâmetros estruturais:


Walter Isard’s research contributions are large and diverse. His interests in regional and urban phenomena were formed during his graduate studies, leading to his first major book, Location and Space Economy (1956). Next, he initiated research on the economic and social consequences of atomic power and industrial complexes and intensified his research on methods of regional and urban analysis, including interregional interindustry models, interregional linear programming models, and migration and gravity models. This resulted in his second major book, Methods of Regional Analysis (1960), later thoroughly updated as Methods of Interregional and Regional Analysis (1998). During the 1960s Isard turned to more theoretical pursuits related to individual behavior and decision making as well as general equilibrium theory for a system of regions as presented in his third major book, General Theory (1969). Concurrently, he and his students undertook a major interindustry study of the Philadelphia region and other empirically-oriented research.
