2016年6月29日至7月5日，上海财经大学城市与区域科学学院/财经研究所将邀请日本东北大学的曾道智教授，在上海财经大学开设为期7天的“Research Frontiers of Spatial Economics”的课程。曾道智教授将用一周的时间进一步系统的讲解空间经济学的建模方法、基本理论模型，并为广大学子厘清空间经济学的前沿问题。

本次课程是上海财经大学城市与区域科学学院/财经研究所为本院研究生开设的暑期国际课程，原文地址https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s?__biz ... e0KsT8bFeZroKVId#rd。请有旁听需要的亲们速速报名吧！

一、曾道智教授简介

曾道智教授现为日本东北大学信息科学研究科教授、博士生导师。1996年在日本京都大学取得工学博士后转入经济学领域，从事空间经济学的研究，其成果涉及城市经济学、区域经济学、国际贸易、环境经济学、实验经济学等多个学科，有40多篇论文发表在这些专业的知名SSCI学术期刊上。他曾获得日本应用区域学会的坂下奖，电子情报通信学会的论文奖，美国 Western Regional Science Association的论文奖。现在担任学术期刊Journal of Systems Science and Complexity, Papers in Regional Science, Interdisciplinary Information Sciences, Asian Journal of Management Science and Applications的编辑委员。他还是日本应用区域学会、中国区域科学学会的理事，历任浙江大学和中国科学院大学的客座教授。更多情况详见曾道智教授的个人主页：[url=]http://www.se.is.tohoku.ac.jp/~zeng/[/url]

二、课程简介

Given the unevenness in the spatial distribution of natural resources, climate differences, proximity to coasts and rivers, we observe a lot of agglomerations of economic activities in the world.Spatial economics brings location, distance, and land into economics to explain where economic activities locate. It has become one of the main economic fields that can be used to understand how the new map of economic activities is being redrawn.

Spatial economics is a discipline covering at least international trade and regional economics, which differ in labor mobility. International trade mainly considers the production and consumption flows when labor is immobile while reginal economics focuses on industrial location when labor is mobile across regions. Trade theory will be the first half of our course, followed by regional economics.

Let me emphasize two important features of this class. First, unlike traditional trade theory, spatial economics has more concerns in finite trade costs. While the theory of comparative advantage is based on the comparison between free trade and autarky, spatial economics discloses the economic activities in the wholeprocess of falling trade costs. Thus, spatial economics is considered to have a wide range of applications related to trade integration in the globalizing world (I will give some application examples in the lectures). Second, we learn new trade theory, which takes increasing returns as a cause of trade. This is accompanied with monopolistic competition. We also learn new economic geography, in which labor mobility interacts with increasing returns.

In addition to the production factor of labor,this class puts more weight on another factor---mobile capital. We will see that recent researches based on the footloose capital models lead to deeper and more intuitive insights on economic activities than the previous one-factor literature.

Finally,since we are going to “research frontiers” of spatial economics, this class has no textbooks. The basic frameworks are included in two important books (Fujitaand Thisse, 2013; Fujita, Krugman and Venables, 1999), which are listed in the references. Other materials are chosen from many top scientific journals.

三、课程大纲

■Objectives and outline

Spatial economics  clarifies regional industrial agglomeration and international trade by  incorporating spatial factors into traditional economics. This lecture mainly  focuses on New Economic Geography and New Trade Theory, which exhibit a  remarkable development in recent years. Specifically, we introduce both the basic frameworks  and the research frontier of new trade theory in international  economics and core-periphery models of regional economics, and then show  their applications. To understand this course, you are expected to have some  basic knowledge of microeconomics.      Some specific aims   1. To be able to establish a general equilibrium model.   2. To master some research techniques in social science.

■Class plan

We focus on the following  issues on five weekdays from June 29 to July 5, 2016. 1a. Background of  Spatial Economics 1b. Dixit-Stiglitz  model 2a. Krugman-type  one-factor models 2b. Footloose  capital models 3a. Melitz model 3b. Core-Periphery  model 4a. Quasi-linear  utility and pro-competitive effect 4b. Re-dispersion 5a. Welfare  measurement 5b. VES utility /  Applications

■Evaluation

Students are  evaluated on the level of class participation (30%), assignments (30%) and  the final report (40%).

■References

Fujita, M. and  Thisse, J.-F., Economics of  Agglomeration, (2nd Edition), Cambridge University Press, 2013 Fujita, M.,  Krugman P and Venables A., The Spatial  Economy, MIT Press, 1999. A lot of papers in American Economic Review, Journal of International Economics, Journal of Economic Geography, Journal of Urban  Economics, Regional Science and Urban Economics, Journal of Regional Science, etc.
