Abstract

There are two classical and opposite perspectives on the effects of information and communication technology (ICT) on spatial economic development: dispersal or concentration. In this paper we analyse the dynamics in the spatial pattern of the ICT using industries in the period 1991–2002. We conclude that particularly the urban centres and the areas just outside of these centres had a loss of their share in the ICT‐related employment and that the more rural areas are catching up. There is not a general dispersal of ICT‐related employment over non‐central areas though, but rather an emergence of new agglomeration areas at both the urban fringe and non‐central locations within the urban system. ICT use as such does lead to spatial developments different from general spatial changes: not in general trends but particularly in a much larger magnitude of the dynamics.
