The history of Taiwan has formed the developed structure of Taiwan cities, policies of industry development caused the main markets focusing in north Taiwan, generating the problem of uneven development between regions. This article adopts ¡§New Economic Geography¡¨ proposed by Krugman to discuss the differences between north region and south region in Taiwan. Moreover, this article extends the issue to real estate market and researches the influence of industrial clusters, transportation construction, labor market and migration of employed population. The empirical results indicate that money supply, industrial cluster and the construction of transportation will affect the development of regional house prices.

Base on Krugman¡¦s NEG model, we subsume urban cost in this study. Referring to study procedure of Murata and Thisse, make few changes of the model. Then, we get 3 conclusions of this study: (1) Due to the difference between commuting costs of each region, the symmetric distribution of workers will no longer make the largest total mass of varieties. While a region attend to traffic construction in order to drop people¡¦s commuting cost, agglomeration economic will not certainly make a negative impact on urban cost or effect people¡¦s variety consumption behavior. (2) In the case of an agglomeration, if the transportation costs are sufficiently large, the agglomeration equilibrium will be stable. The larger the transportation costs between regions, the larger cost of consuming other regions¡¦ commodity. Thus, chose to agglomerate in a bigger region can get cheaper and variety manufacturing commodities easily. And the agglomeration equilibrium will be stable. (3) Any change of commuting cost of the other region will not influence the stable of agglomeration equilibrium.

Além disso, as unidades produtivas contratam serviços, desde atividades mais comuns, tais como: segurança, limpeza, alimentação, por exemplo, até serviços mais sofisticados, quais sejam: marketing, design, informática, etc. Tais serviços envolvem uma gama de atividades que podem ser intensivas em capitais, tecnologias e mão de obra altamente especializada. Para operar na economia global, as indústrias tiveram que se tornar principalmente mais "flexíveis". Dessa forma, fica evidente que há circuitos espaciais da produção desde a extração da matéria-prima até os serviços pós-venda, em nível local, nacional e global. Ademais, existem círculos de cooperação entre empresas, indústrias, fornecedores e clientes, havendo interação entre os agentes e, quanto maior for a troca de informações ou conhecimentos, maior será a vantagem competitiva de uma unidade produtiva, em um processo de divisão do trabalho e da produção. A análise dos processos e das estratégias empregadas pelas empresas automotivas selecionadas, nas relações interindustriais e nos serviços ...

Furthermore, the productive units have hired service businesses, from simple activities, such as: security, cleaning, feeding, for instance, to sophisticated ones, which are: marketing, design, computer, etc. These service businesses involve a group of activities that can be intensive in capital, technology and highly specialized labour force. To operate in global economy, industries have been especially more flexible. In this way, surely, there are spatial circuits of production since raw material extraction until after sales service businesses, in local, national and global levels. Besides, there are cooperation circles among companies, factories and customers and how much more is the exchange of information or knowledge, the competitive advantage of a productive unit will be higher, in a production and labour division process. The analysis of processes and of strategies applied by automotive companies selected, in linkages and service businesses demanded by factories that have been performing, contemporaneity, in spatial circuits of production and cooperation circles of these economic activities was the objective of this research.

Orientador: Elson Luciano Silva Pires / Banca: Ricardo Toledo Neder / Banca: Maria Monica Arroyo / Abstract: The Metropolitan Accumulation of Curitiba faces a new reality characterized for the insertion to the local economies of great groups in the dynamic sectors, especially to the automobile industry, segment of light vehicles. This process reflects the current phase global of territorial expansion of the capitalist relations, with accented transformation of the innovations social techniques and of production and of the organization modes standards of the local space. The insertion of the Economic Group in a new territory obeys a new organization mode dynamics and of relations where the place also if detaches, constructing strategical agreements that provoke significant changes in the relations between Group and territory. The thematic central office of this work is to understand and to analyze the relation between the sector (automobile - Grupo Renault) and the territory (AMC - Agglomerated Metropolitan of Curitiba), its construction dynamic and crumbling dynamic. A new dynamics of industrial centerless and permanence of the sectors in the place has been broken of the central hypothesis of that the global processes that characterize a new economic phase reflect in the relation between the Economic Groups and the territory, imposing. From this idea it was analyzed influence of the global processes in the organization of the industries, as well as the relations that if process between the Economic Group and the territory, having itself in sight the local dynamics of the auto industries and the competitiveness between the places. Therefore, the characterization of the territorial dynamics of the automobile industry (genesis, determinative and displacements) in the world became excellent, specifying itself the new territories of this sector in Brazil and exposing the logics of localization in the AMC (the new territoriality imposed for the auto industry and its impacts for the local development)...
