The purpose of this research is to quantitatively evaluate the growth phase, position, and priorities of the industrialization policy management of the construction industry at firm level. The goal is to integrate quantitative dynamics into the policy-making process for sustainable policy development in future China. This research proposes an integrated framework, including growth management mo...

Economic integration creates two different forces on industrial location: dispersion and agglomeration forces. The dispersion force relocates industries across integrated countries according to each country’s comparative advantage and achieves the static efficiency of resource allocation. In contrast, the agglomeration force serves as a dynamic source of industrialization but at the same time, ...

A key aspect of industrialization is the adoption of increasing-returns-to-scale, industrial, technologies. Two other well-documented aspects are that industrial technologies (ITs) are adopted throughout intermediate-input chains and that they use intermediate inputs intensively relative to the technologies they replace. These features of ITs combined imply that countries with access to similar...

Abstract Chinweizu’s wide-ranging and copious intellectual output persistently brings into sharp focus penetrating analysis of Asia’s contemporary rise (read in Chinweizuan terms as autonomous modernization industrialization) juxtaposition to Africa’s de-industrialization with it her firm rootedness at the periphery global power. “Africa’s Staticity-Asia’s Rise” is a binary that bothers Chinwei...

The global economy has entered the era of rapid industrialization, especially in developing countries; however, under the dual constraints of resources and environment, the extensive economic growth mode will probably seriously affect the process of China’s industrialization and modernization. To keep a balance between industrialization and environment and energy requirements, the development o...

Through exploratory spatial analysis, this paper found strong spatial dependence in levels of urbanization among 287 prefecture-level cities in China, and the high-high and low-low were the dominant spatial agglomeration types among the neighbor cities. The major socio-economic factors also showed obvious spatial dependence, which might contribute to the spatial agglomeration of the urbanizatio...
