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.

New Frontiers in Regional Science: Asian Perspectives

This book integrates diversified disciplines, research approaches, and methodologies of area studies, regional economic development, and regional science. With its huge population, China has accomplished rapid economic growth since the 1990s, although the significant income gap among regions and individuals has become a serious problem for its society. China's accession to the WTO in 2001 has had various influences on the entire food system, from agriculture to consumers, through the food manufacturing and distribution industries. The changes in the Chinese food system are considered to have also affected the agriculture and food industries in Asian countries where economic interdependence has been promoted in past decades. The author argues these issues based on interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary methods and approaches and has successfully derived empirical and theoretical results that are rich in policy implications. The topics addressed include food security and sustainability of agriculture especially in the suburbs of big cities; poverty reduction in rural agricultural areas amidst prosperity in urban and coastal areas; regional networks and international trade of the food industry in East Asia; creation of innovative knowledge and human capital for clustering of the agro-food sector; regional development strategy; and international cooperation. The book is interesting for researchers in the field, especially for those who are concerned with the food system that has been changed dynamically in the past two decades, and it is informative, as well, for practitioners who are engaged in related business.

Global Trends and Dynamism of China's Agro-Food System

Development and Its Discontents is a critical examination of development studies' history and what it has become, and what it might yet be. It argues that the field is increasingly differentiated along competing modes of thought, worldviews, and claims to knowledge, bringing long-running debates about the study of development back into sharp focus. Drawing on cross-disciplinary thinking on development, from the rise of classical development economics and the anti-colonial momentum of the Bandung era to contemporary decolonial critiques, the book maps the intellectual currents that have shaped development studies and the tensions and debates that now structure it. The result is a framework for recognising the field's internal pluralism and for taking interdisciplinarity more seriously, without pretending that its disagreements are merely semantic. For scholars and students, Development and Its Discontents offers a guide to the intellectual architecture of development studies, its contested boundaries, and the questions now shaping its future.

Sustainable Development Goals Series

This book explores the potential for economic development within rural areas. With a particular focus on African economies, it examines the challenges facing rural areas, including inadequate infrastructure, limited access to essential services, low population density, and ineffective governance. Through integrated approaches to development, community participation, and technological upgrading, the ways that rural areas can be developed to attract investment and utilize natural resources is evaluated. By encouraging community participation, development plans can be created that prioritize sustainability and protect biodiversity and indigenous agriculture.

This book presents a policy framework for economic growth and integration within rural areas. It will be relevant to students, researchers, and policymakers interested in rural, resource, and development economics.

Policies and Strategies for Rural Development and Economic Growth

Economic Development of Rural Areas

Innovation gilt als zentraler Treiber wirtschaftlicher Entwicklung. Gleichzeitig zeigen zahlreiche empirische Befunde, dass Innovationsprozesse selten frei von historischen Prägungen verlaufen. Die Autorin untersucht das Spannungsfeld zwischen Innovationsfähigkeit und Pfadabhängigkeit und analysiert, wie vergangene Entscheidungen, Routinen und institutionelle Strukturen die Entwicklung von Geschäftsmodellen langfristig beeinflussen.
Die Arbeit verbindet dafür Ansätze der Forschung zu Komplexität, Interdependenz, Modularität und Geschäftsmodellen mit der Theorie der Pfadabhängigkeit. Neben dieser neuartigen Kombination von Theorien folgt sie auch methodisch einem aufkommenden Trend: Der Integration von historischer Forschung in Managementstudien. Auf Basis der empirischen Analyse wird aufgezeigt, unter welchen Bedingungen Pfadabhängigkeit Innovationen hemmen, stabilisieren oder gezielt genutzt werden kann. Der untersuchte Fall eines Top-Players der Systemgastronomie zeigt anhand von Uses of the Past, dass Geschichte nicht nur eine Folge von Ereignissen in der Vergangenheit ist, sondern eine Ressource, mit der die Zukunft von Unternehmen gestaltet werden kann.
Das Buch leistet einen Beitrag zum besseren Verständnis der Dynamik von Innovationsprozessen und bietet zugleich praxisrelevante Implikationen für Unternehmen und politische Entscheidungsträger, die vor der Herausforderung stehen, etablierte Pfade zu überwinden oder bewusst weiterzuentwickeln.

Geschäftsmodelle zwischen Tradition und Innovation

Deutschland – europäisches Kraftzentrum und ökonomische Supermacht – steht vor einem epochalen Umbruch. Seine über Jahrzehnte stabile und erfolgreiche Wirtschafts- und Gesellschaftsordnung gerät zunehmend ins Wanken. Im Zentrum dieser Entwicklung steht ein Geflecht an systemischen Herausforderungen, das weit über den nationalstaatlichen Rahmen hinausreicht. Es betrifft nicht nur die Zukunftsfähigkeit der Europäischen Union, des Eurosystems und der internationalen Klimagemeinschaft, sondern stellt in seiner Gesamtheit eine beispiellose Belastungsprobe für das wirtschaftliche und gesellschaftliche Erfolgsmodell der Bundesrepublik seit ihrer Gründung dar. 

Dieses Buch analysiert die zentralen Herausforderungen im nationalen und europäischen Kontext und zeigt Lösungsansätze auf. Für diese Auflage wurde es grundlegend erweitert und aktualisiert und ein neuer Schwerpunkt auf Europa gesetzt.
