Northernization for Breaking‐through International Isolation: Taiwan’s Trilateral Aid Cooperation in the Middle East Refugee Crisis and beyond
New cities in China: Tracking urban projects in the city fringe
In recent decades, hundreds of new cities have been built in China with a notable acceleration of this trend in the 2000s. Yet despite their numbers and variety, China's new cities remain marginal to a wave of popular and scholarly attention directed at new towns and new cities globally. This article brings China's new cities into these conversations through review of extant literature on the topic. Research on China's new cities has focused on t…
China's Urban Speed Machine: The Politics of Speed and Time in a Period of Rapid Urban Growth
China's urban transformation since 1978 is notable for both its scale and speed. Focusing on the dimension of speed, we propose the concept of the 'urban speed machine' to assess its role in shaping the politics and political economy of Chinese urbanization. We argue that in China speed must not be understood merely by means of measurable outcomes of change, but rather that speed is an essential and vital element embedded within China's specific …
Industrial Districts
An industrial district ( ID ) is a spatially defined production system characterized by the concentration of firms specializing in certain industrial sectors. In addition to the typical notion of agglomeration economies, the ID concept stresses the significance of noneconomic factors, such as culture, norms, and institutions, to account for a region's industrial and economic development. The existence of strong local social networks built on a co…

Newly industrializing economies (NIEs) are those regions and countries that have undergone rapid economic growth via export‐oriented industrialization since World War II. This entry discusses three different, but interrelated, approaches to explain the rise of NIEs: the liberal market approach, focusing on international trade and cross‐border investment; the developmental state approach, emphasizing the role of state interventions behind developm…
Globalization and the local government learning process in post-Mao China: A Transnational Perspective
Since the 1970s, China has changed from a centrally planned economy to a more open and globalized one. Within this context we ask how, under what circumstances and through what means are local governments able to make policy innovations in upgrading the business environment within their jurisdictions. Theoretically, it is possible to learn policy innovations from the past, from neighbours and from aboard. Leading development regions, like the Yan…
