Liu L: Low-Altitude Economy

Low-Altitude Economy

A Strategic Transformation of Mobility and Logistics

This book explores Chinese engagement in Africa’s mining sector within the context of international business. Conceptual and empirical contributions by diverse authors examine mining activities of Chinese companies in several African countries. Emerging from those contributions is a theory of minimal investment, defined as the degree to which the companies invest minimally in African operations, communities, and countries just for them to get by (i.e., function as normal).&nbsp;&nbsp; 
The volume presents four conditions that explain why minimal investment persists as a dominant logic of foreign firm behaviour in Africa. Institutions permit it, strategies enact it, heritage legitimizes it, and reactions stabilize it. Minimal investment has produced order, and order is safety both for firms and often for host institutions alike. Optimal investment, by contrast, introduces ‘danger’ because it changes the status quo, redistributes power, and mitigates African rather than firm risk. The Theory of Minimal Investment (TMI) reveals how underinvestment is an intentional, albeit seemingly rational, historically embedded, and institutionally sustained strategy of engagement. 
Coming at a time in which African countries are seeing a surge of Chinese interest in Africa, this book offers a cautionary tale of the consequences of organizations seeking the ‘help’ of Chinese companies. It will appeal to International Business studies and strategy researchers interested in interorganizational relationships, particularly from the African perspective.

Governing China in the 21st Century

‘China’s Urban–Rural Relations: Myths, Lessons, and Legacy of the New-Type Urbanisation Plan’ offers a critical and timely examination of one of the most ambitious transformation agendas of the 21st century. The book examines how China's New-Type Urbanisation Plan has changed the connection between cities and the countryside—spatially, economically, institutionally, and socially—moving beyond celebratory narratives and crude criticisms. This book fundamentally questions the notion that urbanisation is a neutral or consistently advantageous development. It contends that although China's approach has brought about previously unheard-of levels of scale, speed, and connection, it has also resulted in uneven outcomes, enduring inequality, and contentious forms of integration. As described above, urban-rural change is a complicated and frequently conflicting process influenced by distributional dynamics, institutional frameworks, and governance decisions rather than a straight line toward equilibrium. Architects, planners and scholars will find it of interest.Ali Cheshmehzangi
 is Professor and Head of the School of Architecture, Design and Planning at The University of Queensland, Australia. His research focuses on urban sustainability, climate resilience, and the evolving relationships between cities, communities, and technological systems. He has authored and edited more than 70 academic books and published extensively on sustainable urbanism, urban transformation, and the future of cities. His work on China draws on extensive research and academic experience, critically examining the country’s rapid urbanisation, urban–rural transformation, and governance practices within wider debates on sustainable development, carbon neutrality, and long-term urban and regional change.

Contributions to Economics

Artificial intelligence is not just transforming the economy; it is fundamentally redefining the core principles of economic theory.
From the Phillips Curve to portfolio optimization, and from the Laffer Curve to Lewis’s dual-sector model, the core frameworks that have shaped economics for over a century are now evolving through intelligent machines, algorithms, and data-driven decision-making. In this work, Tshilidzi Marwala reanalyzes 18 fundamental principles of economic thought, such as demand and supply, rational choice, information asymmetry, mechanism design, agency theory, comparative advantage, growth, governance, and market efficiency, from an AI perspective.
Drawing on economics, artificial intelligence, finance, public policy, and global governance, the book explains how AI is changing productivity, labor markets, inflation, competition, taxation, and the relationships between states, companies, and citizens. It shows that traditional ideas based on scarcity, human labor, limited rationality, and static institutions are gradually being replaced by a modern economic framework driven by intelligent capital, algorithmic coordination, and autonomous systems. The outcome is a comprehensive and timely framework for understanding the political economy of the AI era, detailed in analysis, globally oriented, and essential for policymakers, scholars, business leaders, and anyone seeking to understand how intelligence is becoming the primary driver of economic transformation.

An in-depth exploration of the network of agencies involved in policing child pornography—and what the future of security and care looks like. Facing the Child investigates the technocratic expertise in the policing of child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Mitali Thakor argues that CSAM has come to be framed as primarily a digital problem, to be resolved digitally, thereby unleashing a new form of corporatized policing helmed by global technology companies. Ambitious in scope, this multi-sited global ethnography draws on 4 years of original fieldwork and interviews with technology companies in the US, the United Nations in Bangkok, Thai and Dutch NGOs, and law enforcement in the US and the Netherlands. The book argues that in the 2010s, a network of technology companies, NGOs, and law enforcement created the notion of a “virtual child” in need of techno-solutionist saving to justify a vast expansion of surveillance technologies. The book examines how pervasive myths of child abuse online were exploited to serve the aims of seemingly disparate groups, from Christian neo-abolitionists to NGOs conducting virtual sting operations. It is this complex relationship between the care and securitization needed to fix the child victim as an object of data, concern, and rescue that the book explores.

Sovereignty, Sacrifice, and Survival in Pakistan’s Necropolitical Order: Death’s Dominion examines how sovereignty, sacrifice, and survival are experienced by individuals living under Pakistan’s militant and counter-militant regimes. Drawing on unstructured, in-depth interviews with sectarian militants and interrupted martyrdom operatives, it transforms first-person testimony into a critical analysis of necropolitics: the power to determine who may live, who must remain vulnerable, and who may be exposed to death. The book shows how selective protection, institutional failure, militant violence, and exceptional security practices can produce “death-worlds” governed through insecurity, abandonment, and differential exposure to violence.Combining phenomenological inquiry with post-structural theory, the study reveals how state and non-state actors participate in overlapping moral and political economies of death, in which martyrdom, refusal, betrayal, and survival acquire political and sacred meanings. It advances the Pakistan-specific NEC Framework—National, Ethnosectarian, and Counterterror Necropolitics—to explain how competing forms of sovereignty intersect in shaping the national order. In dialogue with Michel Foucault, Giorgio Agamben, Achille Mbembe, and Judith Butler, the book also develops counter-necropolitics as a life-affirming project grounded in justice, accountability, rehabilitation, recognition, reparation, and counter-narratives.Munir Ahmad Zia Rao isDeputy Inspector General of Police, Punjab, Pakistan. He has a PhD in Terrorism Studies from the University of the Punjab.
