Studies in the structure of the Stockholm economy : towards a framework for projecting metropolitan community development
- 1959
-
Doctoral thesis (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The purpose of the present study is mainly exploratory. It is founded upon a belief that many tools and concepts developed in economic theory, and hitherto applied almost exclusively to the study of nationaleconomies, may be fruitfully applied also in the study of the economics of metropolitan areas and other large cities. A logical consequence of the lack of such applications is that the organized body of economic data pertaining to metropolitan areas, etc., is extremely limited. The present investigation of the Stockholm area aims to make a contribution in this field of metropolitan area research. It will explore the possibilities of application, and adaptation, of the theoretical scheme used by Leontief in his studies in the structure of the American economy….. The present application of these tools and concepts represents an attempt to uncover relationships, by means of which some light may be thrown on the very functioning of a metropolitan economy. Seen from a different point of view, this study aims to comprehend a great mass of phenomena and events in such a way that one of the outcomes of the study will consist of an organized set of economic data, pertaining to the Stockholm area. Again, seen from a practical point of view, it is my hope that the theoretical framework to be provided here may help to throw some light on the future developmental possibilities of the economy of the Stockholm area, and, further, that the findings to be presented here may be of some interest to city planners….
