Show moreThis study deals with development, estimation, and application of a constrained welfare maximization model to the counties of the state of Florida. This model was suggested by James M. Henderson and is developed from microeconomic concepts. A survey of the literature concerning public expenditure begins the study. This is proceeded by the derivation of the regression equations which are derived from the concept of constrained welfare maximization. Estimation of the model involves aggregation into metropolitan counties and non-metropolitan counties of Florida county data and the subsequent categorization of counties. Empirical estimation of the desired coefficient enables the exumination of the involved elasticities and the endogenous variable response to changes in the exogenous variables.

Abstract/Description
-
The objective of this thesis is to determine the extent to which the growth patterns of South Florida can be described in terms of the stages-of-growth and center- periphery growth hypotheses. To this end a survey of the relevant economic literature is provided , along with a demographic and economic history of South Florida and Florida. Also a brief economic history of the United States, Italy and South Italy is given as an example of the growth hypothesis.
