Zooming-in: Expanding the micro-geographic perspective in economic geography
Résumé
While economic geography is mainly concerned with regional and global dynamics, this paper examines the relevance of the micro-geographical perspective that has recently emerged to study the specificities of what happens within city-regions. This perspective aims to produce analysis closer to economic agents, with a particular focus on small-scale spatial units to provide a more nuanced understanding of economic dynamics at the neighborhood, street or building levels. We advocate embracing the potential of this line of research to advance economic geography, given that micro-geography can intersect different theoretical paradigms, methodological approaches and emerging themes.
