Regional Development Research in China addresses long-range planning for the development of science and technology in the field of regional development research. The text forecasts regional development in China to the year 2050, and determins key projects for further research.

This book provides a critical account, a state-of-the-art review, as well as novel research methods of information technology development and the corresponding changes of socio-economic spatial organization in China.With the rapid development of the Internet over the past three decades, the development of information technology and its impact on social economy have become an important frontier issue of human and economic geography. Actually, the influence of information technology is complex and dynamic, involving almost all aspects of socio-economic activities and our daily life. It is also influencing the methods and disciplines that we use to understand it. In general, industrial development and regional management and innovation are the core contents of socio-economic spatial organization. Therefore, changes in industrial clusters, transportation logistics, regional development and innovation, urban planning and management, and rural development under the background of the information age were analysed to understand the relationship among information revolution, socio-economic spatial organization, and human and economic geography.Primarily intended for scholars and graduate students across a range of disciplines, such as geography, urban-rural planning, information science, urban science, economics and sociology, and people engaged in regional planning, urban management and information management, this book proves to be an innovative and up-to-date resource.

This book describes the progress and prominent theories of regional development research in the past decades, especially in the past decade, discusses the industrial structure, spatial structure, resources, and environment, as well as a series of practical issues, and reveals the general characteristics of spatial structure evolution in the process of regional development. The research on the issues of regional development has become the frontier of relevant disciplines since the 1950s, and much progress has been made in the process of solving practical problems in social and economic development. This book provides an in-depth and systematic demonstration of the "point-axis system" theory of regional exploitation and development as well as the T-shaped structure of China's regional economic action in theory and practice and discusses the impact of location differential rent, restricted accessibility, technological innovation, etc., on regional development theoretically. This book is used as a reference for planning, scientific research, and teaching personnel in territorial expansion, regional economy, human geography, etc.
