It is shown that the Alonso model is equivalent to one of Wilson's four standard models depending on the assumption at the outset about which of the total outflows and/or inflows are known. This result turns out to supersede earlier findings—inconsistent only in appearance—which were derived independently by Wilson and Ledent. In addition to this, an original contribution of this paper—obtained as a byproduct of the process leading to the aforementioned result—is to provide an exact methodology permitting one to solve the Alonso model for each possible choice of the input data. date: 1981-02 date_type: published publisher: SAGE Publications id_number: 10.1068/a130217 creators_browse_id: 2102 full_text_status: none publication: Environment and Planning A volume: 13 number: 2 pagerange: 217-224 refereed: TRUE issn: 0308-518X coversheets_dirty: FALSE fp7_type: info:eu-repo/semantics/article citation: Ledent, J.
