An exploration of how key provinces in China shape urban and regional development
The rise of major metropolises across China since the 1990s has been a double-edged sword: although big cities function as economic powerhouses, concentrated urban growth can worsen regional inequalities, governance challenges, and social tensions. Wary of these dangers, China's national leaders have tried to forestall top-heavy urbanization. However, urban and regional development policies at the subnational level have not always followed suit. China's Urban Champions explores the development paths of different provinces and asks why policymakers in many cases favor big cities in a way that reinforces spatial inequalities rather than reducing them.
Kyle Jaros combines in-depth case studies of Hunan, Jiangxi, Shaanxi, and Jiangsu provinces with quantitative analysis to shed light on the political drivers of uneven development. Drawing on numerous Chinese-language written sources, including government documents and media reports, as well as a wealth of field interviews with officials, policy experts, urban planners, academics, and businesspeople, Jaros shows how provincial development strategies are shaped by both the horizontal relations of competition among different provinces and the vertical relations among different tiers of government. Metropolitan-oriented development strategies advance when lagging economic performance leads provincial leaders to fixate on boosting regional competitiveness, and when provincial governments have the political strength to impose their policy priorities over the objections of other actors.
Rethinking the politics of spatial policy in an era of booming growth, China's Urban Champions highlights the key role of provincial units in determining the nation's metropolitan and regional development trajectory.

Описание: This volume contains selected refereed papers based on lectures presented at the "Integers Conference 2011", an international conference in combinatorial number theory that was held in Carrollton, Georgia, United States in October 2011. This was the fifth Integers Conference, held bi-annually since 2003. It featured plenary lectures presented by Ken Ono, Carla Savage, Laszlo Szekely, Frank Thorne, and Julia Wolf, along with sixty other research talks. This volume consists of ten refereed articles, which are expanded and revised versions of talks presented at the conference. They represent a broad range of topics in the areas of number theory and combinatorics including multiplicative number theory, additive number theory, game theory, Ramsey theory, enumerative combinatorics, elementary number theory, the theory of partitions, and integer sequences.
