“…Moreover, Brülhart (1998) found out that, during the 1980s, localisation increased in 14 of the 18 European industries considered, especially labour-intensive industries and increasing returns to scale industries. In contrast, analysing the period 1970-1997Midelfart-Knarvik et al, 2004 suggested that the upward trend of the 1980s was a brief interlude before returning to decreasing localisation across European countries. Focusing on the spatial concentration of manufacturing value added between 1985 and 1998, Aiginger and Pfaffermayr (2004) suggested that an upward trend occurred in the pre-Single Market period while dispersion dominated afterwards, and the changes are significant for each period.…”

“…As for specialisation, earlier studies employed export data to assess country specialisation patterns (see, among others, e.g., Aquino, 1978;Sapir, 1996), while other studies analysed country specialisation using production data, such as employment, value-added, or output (see Combes and Overman, 2004 for a comprehensive survey). While Amiti (1999) reports a general increase in relative specialisation in EU countries from 1968to 1990, Midelfart-Knarvik et al (2004 tend to suggest that the process of relative specialisation is more complex at least from the early-1980s until the end of the 1990s. Recent studies, focussed on EU-27 countries, suggest increasing specialisation of the new member states (see e.g., Bagoulla andPéridy, 2011 andVechiu andMakhlouf, 2014).…”

“…8 As concisely summarised by Krugman and Venables (1996), increased integration is "a reduction in the cost of doing business across space" (p. 961). 9 For a recent assessment of the impact of European integration on market concentration, industry location, price dispersion, and productivity, see European Commission (2002) and Dierx, et al (2004). The report concludes that the integration process has raised the level of competition on European product markets, resulting in efficiency gains.…”
