Spread Effects
Positive effects of the cores growth on the periphery. Core unable
to supply all the products the Core is demanding so supply from
the Periphery to the Core. Core becomes affected by NEGATIVE
EXTERNALITIES (high rents, overcrowding, congestion) so firms
locate in periphery.

Backwash Effects
Negative effects of the cores growth on the periphery. Outmigration of economically active people, outflows of
capital, decreasing tax base, firms of the periphery not able
to compete with the firms of the core and therefore
periphery being flooded with cores products.
