Urban Competitiveness in Developing Economies
Plenty has been written on the competitiveness of megacities, capital cities, and regional hubs. Cities in developing countries have not yet received the same attention – this book fills that gap.

Spanning Asia, Africa, and Latin America, this book homes in on specific city cases and examines how they relate to the rest of the global economy.

This volume will be valuable reading to advanced students, researchers, and policymakers in urban and regional studies, economic geography, and economic development.

想像統獨--兩岸統合研究
在「統獨」的光譜中間，『統合』，是否會成為兩岸的下一個階段？ 兩岸對峙長達數十年，臺灣主政者由蔣介石時代「漢賊不兩立」的立場，轉為蔣經國時代「三民主義統一中國」「不接觸、不談判、不妥協」的態度，再經李登輝政府透過「兩國論」為臺灣獨立運動奠下政策基石，從而來到陳水扁政府進一步以「一邊一國」明示臺灣獨立的追求目標；目前則是馬英九政府所提倡的「不統、不獨、不武」政策，藉此全力化解兩岸緊張情勢，經濟文化的交流也轉趨緊密。【秀威資訊科技股份有限公司製作】
