Acknowledgements Five years ago, I came to the University of Birmingham to attend a program, Master of International Money and Banking. After one year’s study and one year’s experience of being research assistant, I became a PhD Student in the Department of Economics. In the past four years, I received lots of generous help from many persons around. Firstly, I am heartily thankful to my Chief Supervisor, Prof. Robert J Elliott, whose encouragement, guidance and support from the initial to the final level enabled me to develop an understanding of the geographical concentration and regional economy subject. Many thanks to Prof. Robert J Elliott, his knowledge and insight gave me a strong support during my whole study, not only the academic work but also the daily life. Also thanks to my co-supervisor Dr. Nick Horsewood who gave me quite a lot of valuable suggestions and indications throughout my thesis. Special thanks go to Prof. Eric. A. Strobel and Dr. Michael Henry. Without their friendly help and encouragements, I could not make my thesis meaningful. Besides my supervisors, I would like to show my gratitude to the staff in the Department of Economics, as they inspired me a lot and shared their expertise with me. And I express my great thanks to Marleen, who offered her support in a number of ways. Many thanks also go to the fellows: Liyun Zhang, Bing Liu, Enrico, Charlie, also my wife, Yi Liu, who is also my classmate. I owe my deepest gratitude to their friendship and encouragement. Finally, I wish to thank my family, which provides the solid support to me. I share the achievement with my family members. 1 / 346 A study of industrial agglomeration and co-location in China 目录 A study of industrial agglomeration and co-location in China ..................................................... 2 Chapter 1.

  • Competitiveness Analysis of China's Main Coastal Ports
    2019 International Conference on Economic Development and Management Science (EDMS 2019) Competitiveness analysis of China's main coastal ports Yu Zhua, * School of Economics and Management, Nanjing University of Science and Technology, Nanjing 210000, China; [email protected] *Corresponding author Keywords: China coastal ports above a certain size, competitive power analysis, factor analysis, cluster analysis Abstract: As a big trading power, China's main mode of transportation of international trade goods is sea transportation. Ports play an important role in China's economic development. Therefore, improving the competitiveness of coastal ports is an urgent problem facing the society at present. This paper selects 12 relevant indexes to establish a relatively comprehensive evaluation index system, and uses factor analysis and cluster analysis to evaluate and rank the competitiveness of China's 30 major coastal ports. 1. Introduction Port is the gathering point and hub of water and land transportation, the distribution center of import and export of industrial and agricultural products and foreign trade products, and the important node of logistics. With the continuous innovation of transportation mode and the rapid development of science and technology, ports play an increasingly important role in driving the economy, with increasingly rich functions and more important status and role. Meanwhile, the competition among ports is also increasingly fierce. In recent years, with the rapid development of China's economy and the promotion of "the Belt and Road Initiative", China's coastal ports have also been greatly developed. China has more than 18,000 kilometers of coastline, with superior natural conditions. With the introduction of the policy of reformation and opening, the human conditions are also excellent.

  • Tianjin Travel Guide
    Tianjin Travel Guide Travel in Tianjin Tianjin (tiān jīn 天津), referred to as "Jin (jīn 津)" for short, is one of the four municipalities directly under the Central Government of China. It is 130 kilometers southeast of Beijing (běi jīng 北京), serving as Beijing's gateway to the Bohai Sea (bó hǎi 渤海). It covers an area of 11,300 square kilometers and there are 13 districts and five counties under its jurisdiction. The total population is 9.52 million. People from urban Tianjin speak Tianjin dialect, which comes under the mandarin subdivision of spoken Chinese. Not only is Tianjin an international harbor and economic center in the north of China, but it is also well-known for its profound historical and cultural heritage. History People started to settle in Tianjin in the Song Dynasty (sòng dài 宋代). By the 15th century it had become a garrison town enclosed by walls. It became a city centered on trade with docks and land transportation and important coastal defenses during the Ming (míng dài 明代) and Qing (qīng dài 清代) dynasties. After the end of the Second Opium War in 1860, Tianjin became a trading port and nine countries, one after the other, established concessions in the city. Historical changes in past 600 years have made Tianjin an unique city with a mixture of ancient and modem in both Chinese and Western styles. After China implemented its reforms and open policies, Tianjin became one of the first coastal cities to open to the outside world. Since then it has developed rapidly and become a bright pearl by the Bohai Sea.

  • Study on the Economic Competitiveness
    6th International Conference on Management, Education, Information and Control (MEICI 2016) Study on the Economic Competitiveness Evaluation of Coastal Counties: Example as Liaoning Province Qiang Mao School of Management, Bohai University, Jinzhou 121013, China. [email protected] Keywords: Economic competitiveness; Competitiveness evaluation; Coastal counties Abstract. The competitiveness of coastal county is an important area of study on regional competitiveness, and evaluation study on county economy is important basis and foundation to improve the competitiveness of coastal county economy. Based on a brief description of literature review, a method based on stakeholders’ perspective is proposed to solve the competitiveness evaluation problem. In addition, the effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated by the example as Liaoning province. Finally, some countermeasures are proposed to promote coastal county economy according the evaluation result and characteristics. Introduction Due to convenient transportation conditions for international trade, coastal counties get prosperity for trading with the world and will be easy to form manufacturing bases for processing trade. Many scholars are attracted to the research of economic competitiveness evaluation for its widely application background. Liu(2013) established evaluation index system of county economy for Tangshan, and proposed a method for county economy evaluation based on factor analysis [1]. He(2014) designed evaluation index system based on the perspective of economy development demand in county level, and analyzed the supporting ability of science and technology in Anhui by means of analytic hierarchy process(AHP) [2].Above mentioned methods have each superiority, but evaluation results rely too much on experts’ preference. Evaluation objects are considered as passive objects in the above evaluation problems, while evaluation objects always have more complete evaluation information.
