The book first focuses on the intrinsic relationship between economic globalization, Westward Development, and specialized economies, with an emphasis on the drivers and sources of western economic development. It delves into the modes of western economic growth and long-term stable funding support channels. Using modern economic theories and methods, we establish a specialized model for western economic growth to explore and identify the sources of growth, analyze the shortcomings of the existing economic mechanisms in western regions, break through traditional thinking, and propose more rational and effective models for economic development and growth. These proposals are put into practice.
Through the practice in Baotou, we use facts to prove the correctness of the growth models and pathways for Westward Development proposed in this book.
