The rural-urban population balance again.
"This paper explores further the economics of the rural-urban population balance, using the method of comparative statics.  It confirms the results obtained by Artle and his colleagues, using the method of excess demand analysis, thus demonstrating that the two methods of analysis are equivalent in this context.  In analysing the effects of non-neutral technological change upon urbanization, it is essential to distinguish between the total elasticity of demand for manufactured products, and the income and (compensated) price elasticities, respectively.  The empirical plausibility is questioned of assuming that total demand for the aggregate of manufactured goods is elastic."
