Dr. Tanmoy Dhibor discusses how modern economic growth differs from traditional equilibrium concepts, emphasizing growth towards specific locations. The theory considers economic space characteristics and inter-industrial linkages as fundamental aspects. External economics, agglomerations, and linkages are key bases of the Growth Pole Theory explored by Dr. Tanmoy Dhibor.
