【摘要】The   paper estimates agglomeration effects for France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and   the UK. Estimation takes into account endogeneity of the spatial distribution   of employment and spatial fixed effects. Empirical results suggest that   agglomeration effects in these European countries are only slightly smaller   than agglomeration effects in the US: the estimated elasticity of (average)   labor productivity with respect to employment density is 4.5 percent compared   to 5 percent in the US.
