| description | This paper examines the impact of industrial agglomeration in the city of Baghdad, and in
particular the trend of regional inequalities rates, between Baghdad and surrounding cities. To
determine rates of change in regional inequalities. Is it increasing or decreasing? And to
determine of cities that are the inequalities between them and Baghdad more than others. There
is more than one method to calculate the regional inequality, but the more popular; Williamson
method, namely weighted coefficient of variation (Vw), but the key indicators were Indicators
spatial, indicators of industrial activity in study areas only. Are not used general indicators, just
like Williamson used. The general trend of the changes was increasing of regional inequalities,
but the most prominent of regional inequalities was the largest share of the cities closest to
Baghdad. |
