Monocentrical Enterprise Concentration, Comparative Statistical ModelAbstract
This paper contrasts the hypothesis that, in the city of Santa Cruz de la Sierra (Bolivia), companies/enterprises are still concentrated in a monocentrical way. To proof this hypothesis, a statistical model is estimated to compare local densities. Indices concerning concentration and activities diversification, based on empiric data from 2007, give the hint of relevant concentration patterns according to rings and possible sub – centers.
