摘要:This paper analyses industrial policy in a high wage open economy
hosting an agglomeration consisting of vertically linked upstream and
downstram …rms. We show that optimal policy towards upstream in-
dustries typically di¤er from the optimal policy towards downstream
industries. Internationalisation impacts on the costs as well as on the
bene…ts related to sustaining an industrial agglomeration. Whether
maintaining the agglomeration is compatible with a welfare maximiz-
ing policy is shown to depend on level of economic integration.
