 note = {application/pdf, IDP000212_001, Inspired by the observed contrasting patterns of industrial distribution in East Asia and Europe,
this paper conducts an empirical clarification of the difference in spatial relationships among
countries within a region for the electric machinery industry by use of spatial econometric
analysis. The results indicate that, while production in the electric machinery industry in a
country is positively correlated with that of neighboring countries in East Asia, there is no
significant spatial correlation in Europe. Such a difference in spatial interdependence has
important implications for economic development in those regions.},
