• Factor market distortion correction, resource reallocation and potential productivity gains: An empirical study on China's heavy industry sector (2018, background): “Significant segmentations also occur in China's labour market (Cai et al., 2002; Knight and Li, 2005; Hertel and Zhai, 2006) and energy market (Ouyang and Sun, 2015; Shi and Sun, 2017; Ju et al., 2017).”
• Does regional economic integration promote urban land use efficiency? Evidence from the Yangtze River Delta, China (2021, background): “For workers, the expansion of the market size means more employment opportunities, better living conditions and more colorful cultural and recreational activities, which attract many workers into t integrated areas (Angel & Blei, 2016b; Cai et al., 2002).”
• Why Has China Grown so Fast? The Role of Physical and Human Capital Formation (2011, neutral): “…convergence is widely supported by empirical evidence in both the cross-country growth literature (for example, MRW, 1992; Islam, 1995; Bond et al., 2001; Ding and Knight, 2009) and cross-province growth studies of China (for example, Chen and Fleisher, 1996; Chen and Feng, 2000; Cai et al., 2002).”
• Regional Development in China: Transitional Institutions, Embedded Globalization, and Hybrid Economies (2007, positive): “These findings reject the hypothesis of absolute convergence, and suggest polarization of the coastal-interior divide, as well as the formation of distinct regional “clubs” (e.g., Yao and Zhang, 2002), although some have presented evidence of conditional convergence (e.g., Cai et al., 2002).”
