Features: Spatial economics incorporates spatial factors into the general equilibrium analysis framework, primarily studying the spatial distribution patterns of economic activities, explaining the causes and formation mechanisms of spatial agglomeration, and exploring the economic development process of a specific region (or country) through the interpretation of these causes and mechanisms. The purpose of this book is to introduce domestic readers, particularly scholars engaged in regional economic growth research, to the core ideas and fundamental models of spatial economics, as well as their applications in economic policy analysis. It aims to broaden the research perspectives of domestic scholars and enable them to utilize tools from a new toolbox to explain emerging phenomena in regional economic growth.
