Abstract: | This study analyses a model of economic development in which international differences in industrial structure and income are caused by agglomeration of industry in a subset of countries. Economic development may not be a gradual process of convergence by all countries, but instead involve countries moving sequentially from the group of poor countries to the group of rich countries. |
