Abstract

Este trabajo contrasta la hipótesis de que, en la ciudad de Santa Cruz de la Sierra (Bolivia), las empresas continúan concentradas de forma monocéntrica. Para ello se estima un modelo estadístico que compara densidades locales para contrastar la hipótesis monocéntrica. Los índices de concentración y diversificación de actividades encontrados basados en datos empíricos de 2007, dan la pauta de patrones de concentración relevantes según anillos y posibles subcentros.
