<!-- Abstract -->
Economic geography often criticizes the New Economic Geography,
        but it does not take into account that the core-periphery-model of 1991
        is only the initial one and new developments have been taken place since
        than. The article presents some thoughts about the relevance of this kind
        of regional economic concept and indicates how economic geography can
        benefit from the further advancements. Thus, the New Economic Geography
        should not be rejected before attempts to incorporate it into economic
        geography have been performed and empirical tests have been made to form
        a final opinion.
