摘要：
This paper discusses a model of the New Economic Geography, in which the seminal core-periphery model of Krugman [Krugman, R. 1991. Increasing returns and economic geography, journal of Political Economy 99, 483-499.] is extended by endogenous research activities. Beyond the common 'anonymous' consideration of R&D expenditures within fixed costs, this model introduces in an analytically tractable approach vertical product differentiation in combination with a de-integrated R&D sector. In the context of international factor mobility, the destabilizing effects of a mobile scientific workforce are analyzed. Based upon a simple welfare analysis, a consideration of R&D promoting policy instruments and their spatial implications. this paper makes a contribution to the brain-drain debate.
