Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we examined the interdependency between social and geographical distance, incorporating both social and transportation networks explicitly. To this end, first, we propose a theoretical framework that incorporates both social and transportation networks into an equilibrium model of social interactions in order to examine how the level and the spatial pattern of interactions between agents depend on both networks. Second, location choices and socialization (link formation in social networks) choices were examined in this framework. We showed that a decrease of transportation cost would lead to locational dispersion and decline the level of social welfare in a city. Third, we discussed evolutionary implementation of optimal toll scheme on social interactions and traffic congestion. Finally, we estimated the causal effect of agent’s position in the social network on its spatial location within a city, using micro date of inter-firm transaction network.
