| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
(1) Frontiers in spatial econmics. I investigated land use and land price formation in large cities and conducted their theorertical analysis. I also incorporated product differentiation theory into spatial economics and performed some analysis.
(2) New economic geography and new trade theory. Focusing on trade and labor economics, I analyzed the impact of trade liberalization on international economies under labor heterogeneity and derived some policy implications. Furthermore, I considered multiproduct firms in international oligopolistic markets and investigated the effect of falling trade costs on the economic activities.
