Keywords:
economic activities, location theory, regional development, industrial geography, transportation geographyAbstract
Economic geography is a multidisciplinary field that explores the spatial organization and distribution of economic activities. It provides valuable insights into how economic processes shape and are influenced by geographical factors, such as location, resources, and transportation networks. To understand the intricacies of economic geography, it is essential to examine its main categories, which provide a framework for analyzing the spatial dynamics of economic systems. This article will introduce and delve into four key categories: location theory, regional development, industrial geography, and transportation geography. Location theory focuses on understanding the process of site selection by individuals, firms, and industries. It examines why economic activities are concentrated in certain locations and how spatial factors influence economic decision-making.
