The Regional Differentiation of Rural Economic Transformation Development in Jiangsu Province
Economic Geography, 2014Co-Authors: Zhao TonAbstract:This paper took 63 counties in Jiangsu Province as its research unit, based on the rural Economic development dates in 2000-2005、2005-2010 and the rural Economic Transformation indicator system. According to this, we used mathematical statistics method and spatial analysis to analyze the spatial distribution and the types of rural Economic transition. Major conclusions can be drawn as follows.(1) The rural Economic development in Jiangsu Province has a significant spatial autocorrelation characteristic during 2000-2010.(2)The distribution of hot-spot region, cold-spot region and abnormal area of rural Economic Transformation is relatively showing aggregation distributions and the quantity of hot-spot region grows fast at the same time.(3)Then we divide rural Economic Transformation into 4 types through its Transformation speed and provide countermeasures to promote the sustainable development of rural economy.

support for agriculture during Economic Transformation impacts on poverty and undernutrition
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2012Co-Authors: Patrick Webb, Steven A BlockAbstract:This paper explores trends in poverty and nutrition during Economic Transformation and especially the impacts linked to government support for agriculture during the process. Analysis of multiyear data for 29 developing countries confirms that structural Transformation raises total income and that poverty falls faster with strong support for agriculture. In turn, poverty reduction supports improved nutrition, especially in rural areas. However, Transformation brings problems through health risks associated with rising obesity in rural as well as urban areas. Thus, the transition process must be managed better, through targeted support for smallholder agriculture and health interventions, if the negative consequences of obesity and chronic disease are to be mitigated.

REVIEW ON Economic Transformation OF CHINA'S RESOURCES-BASED CITIES
Resources and Industries, 2015Co-Authors: Zhang Wen-jAbstract:According to"the Sustainable Development Planning of National Resources-based Cities 2013-2020",China has 262 widely-spreading resources-based cites with protruding significance. Their sustainable development is outstanding which requires Economic Transformation. This paper discusses the connotation,views,mode,alternative industrial selection,new industries,and supports regarding the Economic Transformation. The existing research which is mainly concentrating on static cases,less in long-term dynamic analysis needs validating in practice. This paper presents paths to Economic Transformation in resources-based cities that need to further quantitatively studied with Economics theory. Also further studies shall pay attention on resources enterprises at a microscopic level.

Rural diversification and socio-Economic Transformation in Croatia
GeoJournal, 1998Co-Authors: Dražen Njegač, Aleksandar ToskićAbstract:Rural diversification in Croatia is well advanced because many rural families have been able to find work in secondary and tertiary activities without the need to migrate to the towns. Many rural settlements have now attained an urban character although there are regional variations, including a contrast between the continental zone with a relatively high level of commitment to agriculture and the coastal areas, with pronounced ‘deagrarisation’ where the ports and tourist resorts are well developed and the natural resource conditions for agriculture are poor. These variations are examined at the municipality level with reference to two key indicators: the share of nonagricultural population and the share of workers in the total active population. Four categories of socio-Economic Transformation are recognised: more urbanised, urbanised, less urbanised and rural. The main regional differences between the continental and coastal areas are confirmed with the latter showing a relatively high level of socio-Economic Transformation through the prominence of more highly urbanised municipalities.

emissions trading systems for global low carbon energy and Economic Transformation
Applied Energy, 2020Co-Authors: Xiliang Zhang, Andreas Loschel, Joanna I Lewis, Da Zhang, Jinyue YanAbstract:Abstract Emissions trading systems have been increasingly adopted by jurisdictions across the globe to facilitate the low carbon energy and Economic Transformation. Serving as an instrument to price greenhouse gas emissions generated in a variety of Economic activities, emissions trading systems are reshaping producer behavior, consumer demand, and the future growth of the economy. Compared to command-and-control regulations or carbon taxes, emissions trading systems possess some unique features. First, if not auctioned, the allowance allocation to producers greatly affects the competitiveness of firms and hence the political acceptance of carbon pricing. Second, emissions trading systems allow potential linking of allowance markets in different jurisdictions, within the same country or internationally. Designs of linking could significantly change the overall policy efficiency and its distributional effects. Third, carbon prices that emerge from the emissions trading systems naturally exhibit volatility. Understanding and predicting this price volatility is crucial for market players in making production and investment decisions. Studying behaviors of producers and consumers at both the micro and macro level is of crucial importance. This paper introduces the special issue “Emissions trading systems for global low carbon energy and Economic Transformation,” summarizes key findings from the papers selected as well as some recent studies, and provides directions for future research.
