Fifty years of population concentration
Introduction This study examines whether contemporary population density patterns are primarily driven by historical demographic persistence or by economic and urbanization dynamics. While economic development is often considered a key determinant of population concentration, long-run structural inertia may play a more important role in shaping spatial distribution. Methods The analysis uses a cross-country panel dataset covering approximately fi…
