The relevant question is how the effects of agglomeration can affect economies. For this, were derived clustering models to verify the socalled: Price Index Effect Effect Market Place and Lack of Black Hole for the period 1994 to 2007. The estimates were made using the econometric analysis of panel data with fixed effects for the twenty-seven states. The results were as expected for the price index effect, statistically significant, proving the agglomeration proposition, and a drop in prices caused by increased competition and also the lowest cost of transport in the regions. For the local market index, the results showed that the market where the sector is higher there will be greater demand for employment. It was also possible to state that for the Brazilian economy there is not empirical evidences of the black hole condition. / O texto busca explorar e aplicar os modelos de aglomera????o da Nova Geografia Econ??mica para os estados brasileiros. A quest??o relevante ?? como os efeitos da aglomera????o podem afetar as economias. Para isso, foram derivados modelos de aglomera????o para verificar os chamados: Efeito ??ndice de Pre??os, Efeito Mercado Local e Inexist??ncia de Buraco Negro para o per??odo de 1994 a 2007. As estimativas foram realizadas com a utiliza????o da an??lise econom??trica de dados em painel com efeitos fixos para os vinte e sete estados da federa????o. Os resultados encontrados foram os esperados para o efeito ??ndice de pre??os, estatisticamente significantes, comprovando a proposi????o de aglomera????o e uma queda nos pre??os causada pela maior concorr??ncia e tamb??m o menor custo de transporte nas regi??es. Para o ??ndice mercado local, os resultados apontaram que no mercado onde o setor ?? maior haver?? uma demanda maior por emprego. Foi tamb??m poss??vel constar que para a economia brasileira n??o h?? evidencias emp??ricas sobre a exist??ncia da condi????o de buraco negro.
