Abstract

Lever W. F. (1975) Mobile industry and levels of integration in subregional economic structures, Reg. Studies 9, 265–278. The paper seeks to assess the impact of interregional industrial movement on the subregions which supply the mobile firms hypothesizing that the impact is most severe where these subregional economies are highly integrated. Using Census of Production data and graph theory an empirical measure of the probable level integration is developed. A rank correlation test indicates a significant negative relationship between the level of economic integration in the sixty-two subregions and the propensity to export mobile employment. Only the West Midlands region with its integrated economies and high levels of employment export appears not to conform to this general relationship.
