摘要
Economic theory of urban growth controls by Engle et al. (Journal of Urban Economics, 1992, 32, 269-283) is extended to the direction of endogenous residents' utility in a closed two-city economy. It is shown that the growth control policy is justified strictly only in the case in which there exist some size-related externalities in the process of urban growth. It is also shown that if the growth control policy is needed anyway, it is necessary to have an intervening policy concerning the population allocation among cities even before growth.
