The New Economic Geography - better than it´s reputation. Economic geography often criticizes the New Economic Geography, but it does not take into account that the core-periphery-model of 1991 is only the initial one and new developments have been taken place since then. The article presents some thoughts about the relevance of this kind of regional economic concept and indicates how economic geography can benefit from the further advancements. Thus, the New Economic Geography should not be rejected before attempts to incorporate it into economic geography have been performed and empirical tests have been made to form a final opinion.

In this paper, we test empirically for the increasing returns-based agglomeration and investigate the impact of the economic integration with the European Union on regional wage inequalities in Poland. In our study, we use the wage data for 16 Polish regions over the period of 1995-2009. Our results are consistent with the predictions of the core-periphery models of the New Economic Geography. In particular, we find that wages decrease as one moves away from the Mazowiecki capital region, as well as from the border with Germany.

The Real

Peck’s (2012) reaction to the colonizing impulse of economics is a call to consolidation of economic geography, better connecting diverse sites of inquiry. This appears to be a reaction to the current incursion of orthodoxy in the form of the New Economic Geography into the domain of the old economic geography. This incursion carries with it the ideological eminence of the market which oversimplifies the nature of exchange and consequently obscures the processes which shape places. I question Peck’s proposition. From an applied perspective our understanding of the real world benefits from the heterogeneity of economic geography. Academic resilience comes from diversity. As a result, economic geography already provides a strong and grounded basis for resisting the monotheism of orthodox economics. (I also question the use of the island life analogy as a didactic device in a critique of a similar device, the neoclassical market model.)
