A Study on the Development Index of International Central Cities in Northeast Asia, chiefly edited by the renowned economist and president of Liaoning University, Yu Miaojie, was recently published. Yu Miaojie is the first Chinese economist awarded the Royal Economic Society Prize and has been appointed to be an expert consultant by the United Nations, the Asian Development Bank, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ministry of Commerce.
Presently, Northeast Asia, as an essential region that contributes to the development of the world economy, plays a vital role in regional economic cooperation and global economic competition. Northeast China is an important gateway for the country’s northward opening-up, and its strategic position and role in strengthening regional cooperation in Northeast Asia and the interplay between domestic and international markets and resources are becoming increasingly prominent. Against this backdrop, establishing a high-quality urban development index is a major proposition for building international central cities in Northeast Asia.
A Study on the Development Index of International Central Cities in Northeast Asia utilizes scientific methods to thoroughly evaluate the comprehensive development capabilities of cities, which is of great significance to promoting high-quality urban development. With high-quality development as its essence, the book focuses on major strategies, such as the construction of international central cities in Northeast Asia and that of national central cities. It selects 32 sub-provincial cities and provincial capitals, and four municipalities as research samples, and sets up special indexes from 10 aspects, including politics, finance, trade, sci-tech, culture, education, health care, transportation, information and ecology, further synthesizing the comprehensive development index of international central cities in Northeast Asia.
The urban development index can not only scientifically measure the comprehensive development conditions of cities, but also provide strong support for achieving sustainable urban development, thus improving the quality of residents’ living conditions, attracting investment, and promoting global urban cooperation.
