This research work is to commemorate all Guos' ancestor, who
guarded the border for his Majesty dutifully, and who is the
foremost supporter in my academic career. For the past decades,
economists and geographers from both developed and developing
countries have studied the economic issues either within individual
countries (regions), or between countries (regions). Only a
relatively small part of these efforts has been focused on the
economic affairs of those countries' (regions') peripheral areas
and even less attention has been given to the structural analysis
of economic mechanisms of the border-regions with different
political levels and compositions. My interest in border-regions
more or less directly relates to some personal reasons of mine. The
Chinese family name, Guo, means a guard for an outer city-wall
(herein it used to be a political and military border in ancient
China, e. g., the Chinese Great Wall). It is more interesting that
Guo is written with a different Chinese character from that used
for the like sounding "Guo" (country). The Chinese writing of the
latter is a square frame inside which lies a Chinese character,
Wang (king), in the centre and a point in the comer. It might be
simply supposed that the "point" was used by the inventor to
necessarily represent the "border guard" probably because of its
vital importance to the country."
