Notes

  • In the big city - as perhaps in all human interaction - there are centrifugal and centripetal forces. The big city is a system of human interaction with particular characteristics. A large number of people crowd in a comparatively small space. Through spatial differentiation and specialisation productivity of goods and services can be augmented as well as providing a more varied supply. The thus attainable gains in living conditions constitute the driving force of centripetalism. Simultaneously there are externatlities of consumption and production that work as a driving force of centrifugalism. Especially residential areas are thrown farther and farther into the periphery. In this chapter I describe the Swedish metropolitan regions in terms of these centripetal-centrifugal forces.
