This chapter examines previous research on intra-urban population and employment distribution and change. The classical monocentric theory of urban development (Alonso 1964; Milles 1972; Muth 1969) involves early studies of intraurban population distribution, with strict assumptions about the concentration of jobs at the city center.

In this
Banks hold financial assets promising a risk-free payoff equal to $ iskfreeassets$, with households as their counterpart for this financial position. Banks also hold $Facevalue$ government bonds. Each government bond has a face value equal to one, payable at the end of the second period. The government, however, may default on its debt, so the payoff may be lower than one. Let $govtpayoff(Y) leq 1$ be the actual payoff of one government bond, where $Y$ is the aggregate output---the payoff, $govtpayoff(Y)$
