Sinopsis

Over more than two centuries the developmentofeconomic theory has created a wide array of different concepts, theories, and insights. My recent books, Capital and Knowledge (Zhang, 1999) and A TheoryofInternational Trade (Zhang, 2000) show how separate economic theories such as the Marxian economics, the Keynesian economics, the general equilibrium theory, the neoclassical growth theory, and the neoclassical trade theory can be examined within a single theoretical framework. This book isto further expand the frameworkproposed in the previous studies. This book is a part of my economic theory with endogenous population, capital, knowledge, preferences, sexual division of labor and consumption, institutions, economic structures and exchange values over time and space (Zhang, 1996a). As an extension of the Capital and Knowledge, which is focused on the dynamics of national economies, this book is to construct a theory of urban economies. We are concerned with dynamic relations between division of labor, division ofconsumption and determination of prices structure over space. We examine dynamic interdependence between capital accumulation, knowledge creation and utilization, economicgrowth, price structuresand urban pattern formation under free competition. The theory is constructed on the basisofa few concepts within a compact framework. The comparative advantage of our theory is that in providing rich insights into complex of spatial economies it uses only a few concepts and simplified functional forms and accepts a few assumptions about behavior of consumers, producers, and institutionalstructures.

He completed his dissertation on economic growth theory in Sweden, by April 1989. Since then, he had been a researcher at the Swedish Institute for Futures Studies in Stockholm for 10 years. His main research fields are complexity theory in economics (nonlinear economic dynamics, chaos theory, synergetic economics) and sociology, ethics (especially trust and justice), ancient Chinese thought, theory of leadership (focused on Han Feizi and Confucius), American civilization, and the economic development and modernization of Chinese societies (mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore), and Japan. He is the sole author of 410 academic articles (200 in international peer-reviewed journals) and 32 academic books in English by well-known international academic publishing houses available on Amazon'. He published two books of poetry (in Chinese) by a well-known publisher in the field. He is an editorial board member of 12 peer-review international journals. He was ranked 4 Top in World among 69211 registered authors in economics in NJP by Sep 2024 (the address below). Prof. Zhang is the editor of the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Models in Economics (in two volumes) which is a part of the unprecedented global effort, The Encyclopedias of Life Support Systems, organized by UNESCO.
