A Multi-Regional Model for China Based on Price and Quantity Equilibrium

  • Chapter
Regional Science: Perspectives for the Future

However, it is generally difficult to conduct such studies, particularly in the regional context, since sufficient regional statistics are difficult to obtain for developing countries.
