The economic geography of beer production in the context of trade liberalization and economic nationalism: The Mexican experience
The US is the most important export market for Mexican beer, generally accounting for over 80% of export sales. While the success of Mexican beer can be explained by a number of many factors, geography is the backbone. It explains not only the cultural underpinnings of Mexican beer's success (e.g., immigration) but also other mechanisms and arrangements (e.g., geography-based trade policy) that have powered its industrialization in Mexico. This s…

Craft breweries as a neighborhood amenity: Evidence From Residential Real Estate Listings
In this paper, we make an argument for craft breweries as a neighborhood amenity. Through an examination of the literature, we suggest that craft breweries act as a particularly important type of neighborhood amenity, namely Third Places. Next, in a case study of Charlotte, NC, we use natural language processing and machine learning techniques to show how craft breweries are being advertised as a neighborhood amenity in residential real estate li…
Economies, Institutions and Territories: Dissecting Nexuses in a Changing World
If individuals don't like bribery but it's widespread, then how does bribery happen?The question of how people choose to engage in bribery-and what their choices imply for individuals and for the market for bribes-remains unanswered.In a novel analysis of the logic of first moves-how invitations to exchange bribes are extended and by whom-I reveal that, in a context where bribery is prevalent and the threat of punishment is weak, service-provider…

Just‐In‐Time Production System
Just‐in‐time (JIT) is a production system that allows manufacturers to minimize the volume of inventory (component parts) at the point of production. This is achieved by ordering parts and arranging for their delivery as they are needed for incorporation into the production process. This reduces costs associated with inventory storage. While some have argued that JIT necessitates close geographic proximity between suppliers and customers, there i…
Metropolitan Innovation in the New Economy
This paper analyzes the high-tech economies of 350-plus metropolitan areas across the U.S. during 2010. Attention is given to 20 different production attributes—including the age and education of the workforce, patent production, business startups, per capita productivity of the workers, and the like. Multivariate analysis is used to reduce these 20 attributes down to 10 orthogonal dimensions; then the scores on these dimensions are used to ident…

The Current Health of Metropolitan Labour Markets in the United States
Much recent research on US labour markets has turned to tracing out the dramatic changes that accompanied and followed the events of the Great Recession (2007–2009). But to date this research has led to more temporal as opposed to spatial detail about those changes. This paper uses an online data set to assess the relative economic health (performance) of the US's more than 350 metropolitan labour markets during and after the Great Recession. The…

Collaboration in Local Economic Development: The Case of Toledo
Many American communities place a high priority on retaining and attracting innovative industries. However, in most American metropolitan areas, the responsibility for local economic development is fragmented along jurisdictional and institutional lines. The result of this fragmentation is that local economic development is often chaotic with no one individual, agency, or jurisdiction in control, which may inhibit the effectiveness of local econo…
The Cultural Politics of Local Economic Development: The Case of Toledo Jeep
This paper examines the inter–relationship between local dependence and local culture, reviews the historical development of Toledo’s industrial bases with an emphasis on automobiles and Jeep, and considers the historical context of the recent Jeep Crisis. The authors assert that the shared culture practices of Toledo residents – locality as cultures of production – contributed to community–wide mobilisation, the construction of a unique business…
Acquisition versus Greenfield Investment: The Location and Growth of Japanese Manufacturers in the United States
O HUALLACHAIN B. and REID N. (1997) Acquisition versus greenfield investment: the location and growth of Japanese manufacturers in the United States, Reg. Studies 31, 403-416. Investigating foreign direct investment by principal modes of entry helps explain the location of Japanese manufacturers in the United States. Japanese greenfield start-ups and acquired plants had distinct interregional distributions in different decades. We use ordinary le…

Just-in-time Inventory Control and the Economic Integration of Japanese-owned Manufacturing Plants with the County, State and National Economies of the United States
REID N. (1995) Just-in-time inventory control and the economic integration of Japanese-owned manufacturing plants with the county, state and national economies of the United States, Reg. Studies 29, 345–355. This paper attempts to shed light on the ongoing debate concerning the spatial implications of just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing systems. The central issue around which this debate has focused concerns the extent to which use of JIT inventory …
Technological Change and the Concentration of the U.S. General Cargo Port System: 1970-88
The diffusion of containerization has changed not only how general cargo is handled, but where. Using the Gini coefficient, we show that general cargo port traffic has become more concentrated from 1970 to 1988 because of four technological changes: containerization, larger ships, larger trains, and computerization of freight tracking and billing. These four technological changes have spawned four kinds of intermodal services: microbridge, minibr…
Phoenix in Flux: Household Instability, Residential Mobility, and Neighborhood Change
The linkages between household instability and residential mobility underlie patterns of population change in the city. To explicate these linkages in Phoenix, Arizona, a rapidly growing Sunbelt city with high population turnover, we queried a sample of residents about their living arrangements and mobility status from 1986–88. The terms stable and unstable refer to household status; movers and stayers refer to mobility status. Results indicate t…
The Location and Growth of Business and Professional Services in American Metropolitan Areas, 1976–1986
The economic base of American metropolitan areas relies increasingly on business and professional services. We explore the causes for fast growth of these sectors in metropolitan areas for 1976–86. Business and professional services produce new types of inputs to a large number of sectors. They encompass far more than externalization of activities once produced internally by manufacturers. We emphasize localization of business and professional se…
A Safe Way to First Solo: A Flight Training Curriculum and Instructional Innovation
A structured flight training syllabus to first solo, with accompanying student notes and instructional records was trialled in one aero club. Student progress was contrasted with flight training in two other clubs. Both quantitative and qualitative monitoring data were collected. This paper outlines the project, reports the data and general outcomes, and notes the difficulties encountered in implementing and monitoring this innovation in a loosel…
Determinants of short- and long-term mobility expectations for home owners and renters
Confusion about the role of residential satisfaction vis-a-vis structural factors in the mobility process stems from the failure to examine the determinants of mobility over varying time frames and housing tenures. Using survey data for a random sample of 580 Phoenix-area households, we test models of short-term (l year) and long-term (5 years) mobility expectations for home owners and renters. The results show that residential satisfaction media…
