Alfred Weber
Definition
- The younger brother of the famed German sociologist Max Weber, Alfred Weber developed an enormously influential model of corporate location based on the minimization of transportation costs that powerfully shaped economic geography, particularly location theory, spatial science, and regional science, for decades to come. Weber's famous model was originally developed for the analysis of manufacturing, although it can be applied to other sectors such as services as well.
