Beskrivning

This book is intended to provide the narratives and analytics of China's spatial (dis)integration. Indeed, the Chinese nation is far too large and spatially complicated and diversified to be misinterpreted. The only feasible approach to analyzing it is, therefore, to divide it into smaller geographical elements through which one can have a better insight into the spatial mechanisms and regional characteristics.

Provides a combination of narratives and analytical narratives
Includes annexes which evaluate provincial and interprovincial panel data and information collected and compiled by the author
Offers specialized mathematics and statistical techniques
