Features: Guided by the Scientific Outlook on Development of "Five Coordinations," this book is based on the overall revitalization and comprehensive development of the economy, with a focus on the new pattern of regional economic development in China. It conducts a systematic and rational analysis of the Northeast Old Industrial Base becoming the fourth growth pole. Through an in-depth examination of economic phenomena such as the "South Shenhai-North Haerbin" axis, the "Shenyang-Dalian-Changchun-Haerbin" metropolitan area, and the competition between Shenyang and Dalian for the "leading role," the book provides a fresh perspective for people to grasp the specific connotations of the fourth growth pole. By analyzing individual cases of the Yangtze River Delta, Pearl River Delta, and Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Delta—three existing growth poles—it offers a contextual reference for understanding the fourth growth pole. Through a strong emphasis on the characteristics and patterns of domestic regional economic development, the book provides insights into the future trends of the fourth growth pole. The book consciously applies Western modern economic theories of regional development, skillfully embedding academic viewpoints within concrete narratives. It emphasizes comparisons across different eras and connections across multiple fields, moving from macro-level overviews to specific analyses, and presents the locational features, strategic status, and development prospects of the fourth growth pole to the readers.
