An authoritative and cutting-edge exploration of how land, transportation, and economic forces shape cities, regions, and the distribution of economic activities from a local to a global scale. Land, by its very nature, is immobile and unproduced, creating competition for prime locations that drives disparities in economic outcomes. Transportation, meanwhile, serves as the mechanism for overcoming spatial frictions but imposes costs that influence where firms and individuals choose to locate. Together, these factors explain the emergence and persistence of cities, regional disparities, and even global patterns of economic concentration. In Spatial Economics, Hans R.A. Koster, Stef Proost, and Jacques-François Thisse explore how cities, regions, and the global economy are shaped by the interplay between location, land use, and transportation. The authors examine why economic activities are clustered in large metropolitan areas and dispersed in vast areas, driven by the balance between the gains from concentration and various congestion and pollution costs. Blending classical theories with modern data and modeling approaches, the book addresses urbanization, spatial inequality, and the effects of policies like infrastructure investments and land regulations. Accessible yet rigorous, it offers valuable insights for understanding the geographic organization of economic activity in today's interconnected world.

The Urban Book Series

Major cities in China have witnessed unprecedented expansion towards outer suburban areas through various forms of mixed-use, clustered development. The peripheries of Chinese cities often comprise diverse residential communities, such as urban villages, workers' dormitories, privatised work-unit compounds, and new commodity housing estates, where local residents and migrants from different backgrounds coexist in a transition period. Chinese migrants now have more housing choices within such areas, but residence in specific neighbourhoods can affect social status, thereby impacting migrants' pathways to integration into the city. This book offers a detailed examination of migrants' integration processes through these peri-urban neighbourhoods.
 Drawing on a rich and fine-grained examination of migratory individuals, their families, and their trajectories in four types of peri-urban neighbourhoods, the book provides a new perspective on internal migration within China. It illuminates 
 shiminhua
 , the fluid integration policy for converting migrants into residents in urban China, conceptualises&nbsp;urban migrant integration, and investigates socio-spatial restructuring among the migrant population of China's metropolises. This book offers an understanding of migrant integration into labour-receiving cities through the lens of neighbourhoods in peri-urban Beijing, an emblematic case that illustrates core patterns of internal migration, politics, and socio-spatial changes in contemporary China.

WIDER Studies in Development Economics

An open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 IGO licence. It is free to read at Oxford Academic and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations. This book explores the emergence of wartime governance and its enduring effects on post-conflict state-building, development, and institutional change. Drawing on rich empirical research and original case studies from conflict-affected countries across Africa, Latin America, and Asia, it brings together leading scholars in political science, development studies, and economics to examine how non-state and hybrid actors govern during war, and how these forms of governance interact with, challenge, or complement state authority in the long term. Rather than portraying war solely as a period of state collapse and institutional erosion, this volume reveals the emergence of complex systems of rule that provide public goods, administer justice, and collect revenues. These wartime institutions often reshape postwar political settlements, influencing patterns of state legitimacy, social cohesion, and local development trajectories. By bridging disciplinary boundaries and combining theoretical innovation with grounded fieldwork, the book sheds light on key policy debates about peacebuilding, humanitarian interventions, and institutional reform in fragile contexts. It argues for a nuanced understanding of wartime governance - not merely as a symptom of conflict but as a central force in the political and institutional evolution of societies affected by war. This volume is essential reading for scholars, policy-makers, and practitioners seeking to understand the dynamics of authority, legitimacy, and governance in the world's most challenging settings.

Initiative for Policy Dialogue at Columbia: Challenges in Development and Globalization

One of the most pressing issues in development today is the employment challenge in low- and middle-income countries. As more young people enter the labor force--and as structural transformation unfolds amid deindustrialization, technological disruption, and global competition--the question of how to create sufficient decent jobs has become central to the economic future of the Global South. Although this is a shared challenge across developing regions, it is particularly acute in Africa, where rapid demographic change and urbanization are colliding with limited industrial expansion. Bringing together leading international scholars, The Future of Work in Developing Countries examines the employment problem from multiple perspectives. Early chapters develop conceptual frameworks around corporations and the global hierarchy of production. Subsequent contributions investigate the dynamics of structural transformation, the role of firms in linking production and labor to surplus, and the design of industrial and technology policies. Later chapters turn to detailed case studies--especially from Africa--that illustrate the possibilities and limits of different growth paths, and comparative insights from Asia and Latin America provide further perspective. By combining rigorous theoretical analysis with grounded empirical research, this book demonstrates that employment creation is not an automatic byproduct of growth but a political and institutional project. It offers fresh insights for scholars of development, political economy, and economic history, as well as for policy makers seeking strategies to promote inclusive transformation in Africa and beyond.

The Future of Work in Developing Countries

This book explores the evolution of sovereign wealth funds in Africa and their increasing significance for facilitating transaction-based economic development. How sovereign investment can address sustainable economic growth, infrastructure development, and sovereign debt reduction is presented.
 
 Innovations in sovereign investment based on climate finance solutions, asset recycling and monetization, overcoming donor gaps in social sectors, capital markets products, and mobilizing co-investment funds from commercial institutions are also highlighted. An empirical framework for assessing the potential of African sovereign wealth funds to become economic powerhouses is also offered.
 
 The book provides a roadmap for how every African country can and should establish a sovereign wealth or development fund, including those not endowed with a generous supply of natural resources.&nbsp; It will be relevant to fund managers, development professionals, commercial investors, students and researchers interested in African political economy.
 Wilmot Allen, Phd
 , is a political economist, entrepreneur and visiting researcher with the Africa Studies Program at the Walsh School of Foreign Service of Georgetown University. Based in Nairobi, he is an emerging market investor, trade specialist and advisor to sovereign funds.
 Michael Kottoh&nbsp;
 is the founder of Konfidants, a policy and investment advisory to corporates, governments, sovereign funds and international development institutions. Based in Accra, he is also the creator of the Africa Sovereign Wealth Funds Index.
 
 Together the authors launched Sovereign Wealth Africa, an economic research and industry information platform on Africa sovereign investors.

Transaction-Based Development From the Periphery to the Center of Sovereign Investment Strategy

African Sovereign Wealth Funds and New Directions in State Capitalism

This book is the first work to systematically study the development of large-size economies. From a completely new perspective, it defines and selects a set of representative large-size economies. It first analyzes the basic characteristics of large-size economies and the mechanisms behind economic growth, and then explores how a country’s scale shapes industrialization, urbanization, institutional change, and governance structures, describing a path for a major economy to an economic powerhouse. The book is selected for China’s National Achievements Library of Philosophy and Social Sciences and has made notable contributions to the development of China’s economic discourse system.

The Handbook of Large-Size Economies Development

This book examines how economic resilience and sustainable development can be achieved within Southern African cities through the integration of Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) into urban planning. It combats the challenges poised by rapid urbanisation, something that it exacerbated by climate change and weak infrastructure, through economic policy and practice that addresses the unique social, political, and environmental conditions found within the region. Evidence-based and empirical case studies are presented to highlight real-world successes and offer tangible solutions. Particular focus is given to land management within developing cities, infrastructure planning for resilience, climate change adaptation, institutional development, and community engagement.

This book presents a multidisciplinary framework to navigate Southern African cities through uncertainty and towards sustainable development. It will be relevant to students, researchers, and policymakers interested in development, African studies, and urban economics.

Agricultural Statistics

Agricultural Statistics is published each year to meet the diverse need for a reliable reference book on agricultural production. It covers an extensive list of issues related to agriculture including livestock, farm values, crop production, and foreign trade. The estimates for crops, livestock, and poultry made by the U.S. Department of Agriculture are prepared mainly to give timely current state and national totals and averages. They are based on data obtained by sample surveys of farmers and of people who do business with farmers. The survey data are supplemented by information from the Census of Agriculture taken every five years. Being estimates, they are subject to revision as more data become available from commercial or government sources. Unless otherwise indicated, the totals for the United States shown in the various tables on area, production, numbers, price, value, supplies, and disposition are based on official estimates. They exclude states for which no official estimates are compiled. Professionals in farming, ranching, agricultural consulting, and animal science will find this most valuable.

Ethics and Social Licence in the Blue Economy squarely confronts the vexing and urgent ethical challenges related to the economic and development potential of the seas. A work of applied moral philosophy, incorporating interdisciplinary elements in law, governance and social science, it provides a multifaceted philosophical interrogation of social licence, explaining its complex relationship to concepts like legitimacy, social contract and legal licence. From this basis, it interrogates the ethics of the Blue Economy, exploring the key moral principles at stake and how they play out in the unique context of marine industries, ocean ecologies and coastal communities.This book delves deeply into how the world's oceans are increasingly seen as an untapped resource, with great promises of commercial development delivering profound goods to humanity. Yet this economic growth raises serious ethical questions. It partitions off resources that are currently open for all, threatens precious ecosystems and impacts wildlife. The aspirational idea of the 'Blue Economy' aims to capture the ocean's economic development potential but also the need for that development to be done sustainably, equitably and legitimately. This need for legitimacy highlights the growing ethical importance of community acceptance and the 'social licence to operate'. Yet social licence is itself an emerging and contested concept, giving rise to its own vexing ethical concerns. This book also offers a deep dive into the many challenges posed and promises offered by expanding marine development.This book will be of great interest to scholars from a range of governance disciplines (ethics and philosophy, law, policy, governance studies and social sciences) as well as those researching in the marine management, governance and policy space.
