China's Market Scale Shifts Spark Regional Economic Evolution and Convergence
The size of a market affects how regions develop economically. In China, the home market effect is crucial in shaping the spatial economic structure. Changes in industry shares happen due to market size and can lead to different structures like single or dual-core setups. The central collapse phenomenon can occur during this process. China's regions may see different development patterns based on market size and transportation improvements. By reducing economic distance and promoting economies of scale, regions can work together for coordinated development.
