This book explains the relationships between equality and
efficiency, as well as between government and market, in
urban-rural and regional development by providing theoretical
frameworks and empirical evidence. Urban-rural development in China
is understood from a regional perspective, while the core issue of
urban-rural and regional development is cross-regional resource
reallocation driven by the trends of globalization, marketization
and urbanization and their influence on growth and inequality. The
book puts forward the following arguments: An urban-rural and
regional balance should not be achieved by limiting agglomeration
effects in eastern regions. For some time now, China has lacked a
suitable mechanism to enable residents in underdeveloped and rural
areas to share in the achievements of economic agglomeration. As a
result, China should not slow down economic agglomeration and
development in eastern regions simply by depending on
administrative means to balance urban-rural and regional
development. In the final analysis, arriving at a regional balance
depends on growth in the eastern regions, provided a reasonable
mechanism is implemented to enable inland areas to share in the
development achievements of eastern regions. In turn, finding an
urban-regional balance rests on urban development, as long as more
rural workers can move to and prosper in cities.
