继承传统开拓创新纪念《经济地理》创刊25周年

25年前的1981年,改革开放的春风吹拂着祖国的大地,科学事业蓬勃发展。在我国老一辈地理学家吴传钧先生和中国地理学会及其经济地理专业委员会的领导下,《经济地理》杂志创刊。这是我国经济地理学发展史上具有划时代意义的大事件。25年来,在我国现代经济地理学著名学者宋家泰、胡序威等主编的努力下,《经济地理》为我国经济地理学的发展提供了重要的学术平台。通过这个平台,     

《经济地理》征订启事

《经济地理》(月刊)创刊于1981年,是由中国地理学会、湖南省经济地理研究所联合主办的国家级学术刊物,主管单位系中国科学技术协会。《经济地理》期刊以"倡导和谐人地关系、服务社会经济建设"为宗旨,兼容地理学和经济学优势,突出战     

关于《中国经济地理》教材的修改建议

由中国财经出版社出版的商业部系统中等专业学校教材《中国经济地理》(下称教材),是经国家商业部教材编审委员会审定,由商业、供销、财贸、粮食等部门中专学校大量使用的教材。此教材按照经济地理学的学科体系,运用较新的理论和统计资料,比较系统、科学地阐述了中国经济地理的基本知识,具有一定质量。但在编写上,也存在某些不足之处,迫切需要改进和修改。     

李小建教授经济地理研究的学术论题和价值取向——读《中国特色经济地理探索》有感

《经济地理》创刊以来的知识溢出特征与变化

基于引证关系,利用知识图谱、社会网络分析等方法,对1981—2019年《经济地理》创刊以来知识溢出的特征与变化规律进行分析。经济地理学研究的专业综合性、学科交叉性特点,在《经济地理》期刊知识溢出的特征与变化中得以充分诠释。期刊知识溢出的作用与变化,不仅体现在促进作者合作网络形成与机构合作关系的深化上,也体现在对城市化、区域经济发展、区域旅游发展等研究领域的推动作用与变化上。期刊知识溢出的特征与变化在其主题构成、作者贡献、机构力量与前沿引领等的探讨中进一步得以明确。具体地,城市化研究的知识溢出作用,从城市化和城镇化、土地利用、生态环境等方面,逐渐转向新型城镇化、城市网络、生态环境、协调发展等主题;区域经济发展研究的知识溢出作用,经历了从经济联系转向产业集群、再转向空间相互作用关系的主题变化;区域旅游发展研究的知识溢出作用,则从旅游资源、旅游业、生态旅游等方面,逐步转向乡村旅游、旅游经济与协调发展等主题。以国家战略与发展政策为主要导向,促进国内经济地理学的研究与发展,是《经济地理》期刊知识溢出的核心内容与集中反映。     

国外环境经济地理研究进展

在梳理国外经济地理学重大理论思潮下对环境问题关注程度变化的基础上,借助CiteSpace软件分析国外环境经济地理研究的主要研究团队、学术机构及热点关键词演变特征,并对热点研究主题进行述评。研究发现：(1)新古典经济地理、新区域主义和新经济地理学的演化和关系转向对环境问题的关注为环境经济地理提供了丰富的理论分析思路。(2)从2004年开始,国外环境经济地理研究的发文量和被引频次均进入快速增长阶段;以Bridge G、Gibbs D、Bailey I等为代表的研究团队为环境经济地理的发展起到重大引领作用。(3)伴随自然资源的稀缺性和环境监管的刚性化,资源环境问题由经济地理学的外围逐渐上升为影响经济活动空间逻辑的内在因素。追求环境可持续性所带来的经济效益使得经济地理学的理论开始被大量应用于研究环境问题。(4)当前经济地理学的理论和方法对资源环境问题的研究主要集中在环境规制、生态创新、网络资源环境效应和区域绿色发展路径等研究主题。相比之下,未来需着力于建设我国环境经济地理优秀研究团队,及时把握相关研究的国际前沿和国家发展的战略需求,准确定位困扰绿色发展的“卡脖子”环境问题,拓展研究主题,推动我...

《经济地理》杂志创刊至今,已走过了30个春秋。她作为几代经济地理学家和科技工作者辛勤培育的重要学术园地,见证了中国改革开放的全过程,推动了经济地理学科的繁荣和发展,其学术地位不断提高,影响力不断扩大。值此刊庆30周年之际,特撰此文,以为纪念。     

《世界海洋经济地理》书讯

<正>韩增林和张耀光两位教授的新作《世界海洋经济地理》一书已于2017年1月由科学出版社出版,这是辽宁师范大学海洋经济地理研究机构30多年来对世界海洋经济地理研究与实践的系统总结,是对党的十八大提出建设海洋强国的国家战略的积极响应。该书也是《中国海洋经济地理学》(张耀光著,2015年东南大学出版社出版)的姊妹篇,可作为提高全民海洋意识的教材,并可为国家在海洋经济强国建设中提供参考。     

Health, Wealth, Fertility, Education, and Inequality

The authors use a new cross-country dataset to estimate the strength of the links between different dimensions of social and economic development, including indicators of health, fertility, and education, as well as material wellbeing. This differs from previous studies in employing data for different income groups in each country in order to provide direct evidence on factors driving inequality, and in using a unique measure of material wellbeing that does not rely on PPP comparisons.     

IPR,Trade, FDI,and Technology Transfer

In this survey, we discuss how intellectual property rights （IPR） protection in the South affects trade flows, foreign direct investment （FDI） flows, and technology transfers from the North to the South. We also discuss optimal IPR policies and their effect on innovation. Our discussion covers both theoretical studies and empirical evidence. This survey is both comprehensive and critical. It aims to give readers the current state of IPR and globalization literature. Some issues have been studied more thoroughly, whereas for others the surface has only been scratched upon. This survey gives readers a clearer picture of the literature and may help them find future research topics.     

Trade,Remittances, Institutions,and Economic Growth

This paper empirically investigates the role of trade, remittances, and institutions in economic development in a large sample of developing countries using recently developed instruments for all these variables. Both cross-country (over 30 years) and dynamic panel data (over 5-year periods) regressions of growth rates on instrumented trade, remittances, and institutions provide evidence of a significant impact of trade, institutions, and remittances on growth. While institutions foster growth, remittances hamper it. The effect of trade on growth is positive in cross-sectional regressions but ambiguous in dynamic panel data regressions. These results are indicative of a more important role for trade in explaining growth in the very long run compared with over shorter horizons.     

Country terms of trade: trends,unit roots,over-differencing,endogeneity, time dummies,and heterogeneity

The debate about the Prebisch-Singer thesis has focused on primary commodities with some extensions to manufactures. We analyse trends in country terms-of-trade for goods and services rather than those for commodities according to the World Bank income classification. We find that the natural logarithm of the terms of trade for all groups except for the poorest has common unit roots, but none has individual unit roots. As low-income countries have no unit roots over-differencing is inefficient and biases significance levels in first differences against the fall in the terms of trade. For the low-income countries the terms of trade of goods and services are falling at a rate that is significantly negative without and with endogeneity treatment by system GMM. A comprehensive analysis of the effects of time dummies supports the result of falling terms of trade for low-income countries. When all coefficients are country-specific 50% of all low-income countries have falling terms of trade in a simultaneous equation estimation using the SUR method. Food and financial crisis have no effect on the number of countries with falling terms of trade, but (dis-)improve the terms of trade or the significance of the results for a very small number of countries.     

Modinomics: Design,Implementation, Outcomes,and Prospects

This paper presents an analysis of the key elements of Modinomics, defined as “everyone's participation, everyone's progress.” It investigates the reasons why Modinomics was necessary, the key elements of Modinomics, and how this policy was implemented. It argues that India's economic policy has had continuity since the economic reform package of 1991, so Modinomics has involved a high component of better implementation. Nevertheless, there have been some major policy changes as well. The paper discusses the deep structural reforms of demonetization and a Goods and Services Tax as well the new Insolvency and Bankruptcy Act. The paper examines the record of economic growth under Modi as well as new welfare and employment programs to make economic growth more inclusive. Finally, the paper examines the medium and long‐term growth prospects for India.     

Excise taxes,over-shifting,cross-elasticity,and tax revenue

This article examines cross-elasticity effects in excise taxation for markets characterized by monopolistic competition and over-shifting. Extending the constant elasticity demand model to consider cross-elasticity leads to notably different results regarding tax revenue maximization. With nonzero but weak cross-elasticity effects relative to the price elasticity, we derive a higher optimal tax-price ratio compared to prior research. With strong cross-elasticity, revenue can continually be increased by raising the excise tax. Overall, the study offers government greater incentive to use excise taxes to obtain revenue.     

Basic income,liberal neutrality,socialism, and work

Liberal critics often object to basic income (BI) on the grounds that it violates reciprocity and is biased toward those who choose voluntarily to opt out of work and thus violate the principle of liberal neutrality toward conceptions of the good life. In the first part of this paper I argue that liberal neutrality favors BI. Marxist critics of BI are less likely to accept liberal neutrality, but I argue in the second part that the argument for BI in the first part applies with equal force to Marxist objections that BI is unfairly exploitative of workers. Marxists are also less likely to accept current labor market trends, seeing socialism as affording more opportunity for guaranteeing everyone a right to decent work, and suspecting BI of making the unfair inequalities of capitalism a little more palatable while diverting attention from a more equitable socialist alternative. I argue that BI is not incompatible with socialism or Marxism, and should not be opposed to but rather combined with strategies for full employment.
