The review covers three areas. First, we examine reductions in spatial frictions through hukou reform and transportation expansion, and their effects on migration, productivity, welfare, and spatial inequality. Second, we review urban and rural land reforms, housing reform, land-based public finance, and the promotion tournament, which improved allocation but distorted land use, infrastructure, and local debt. Third, we discuss place-based policies and agglomeration, including special economic zones as bundled institutions combining economic incentives with political support. We highlight China’s contribution to core questions in economic geography.","PeriodicalId":48251,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Geography","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2026-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148895352","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using transaction-level customs data from the Bangladeshi garment sector (2018–24), we exploit the sharp depreciation of the Bangladeshi Taka in 2022 to compare maritime and air-based trade corridors through Chittagong seaport and Dhaka airport. We show that ERPT to exporter prices is incomplete on average and systematically lower in buyer–seller relationships that rely more intensively on air transport. This differential is concentrated in destinations and products where delivery speed is especially valuable, notably European fast-fashion markets.","PeriodicalId":48251,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Geography","volume":"379 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2026-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148895358","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We exploit the introduction of a 2012 Italian reform mandating female candidate representation in municipal elections for municipalities above 5,000 inhabitants, and implement a difference-in-differences event-study design comparing municipalities first exposed to the reform with never-treated municipalities, restricting attention to a narrow population window around the binding threshold. Using a balanced panel of 607 municipalities observed from 2007 to 2022, we find that quota exposure increases female entrepreneurship by approximately 2–3 per cent. The effect is concentrated in regions with lower baseline gender equality, consistent with a catch-up mechanism whereby female political visibility matters most where it is most novel. We find no evidence that the effect operates through increased municipal spending on childcare or social-care services, providing no support for the most natural policy channels. The evidence is instead broadly consistent with a role-model interpretation: the increased visibility of women in local political leadership appears to shift the perceived feasibility of entrepreneurial entry among women in gender-unequal environments.","PeriodicalId":48251,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Geography","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2026-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148894995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article asks whether the arrival of high-speed Internet can weaken firms’ monopsony power, particularly in a developing country context. Using firm-level data from China and leveraging the quasi-exogenous expansion of broadband Internet around the year 2000 in a difference-in-differences design, we find that broadband access leads to a significant reduction in firm-level wage markdowns. This effect is driven by four channels: reduced search frictions, increased labor mobility, enhanced firm entry, and stronger worker bargaining power. The resulting decline in labor market power is associated with a higher labor share of income and an increased pass-through of productivity gains to wages. Our findings challenge the conventional view that information and communications technology exacerbates inequality, demonstrating that by promoting labor market competition, it can also have a significant pro-labor equalizing effect.","PeriodicalId":48251,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Geography","volume":"8 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2026-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148894996","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a firm-to-firm transaction-based interprovincial input–output table to construct exposure measures, we find that a one-standard-deviation increase in downstream lockdown exposure reduces export growth by 13.6 log points, whereas upstream lockdown exposure has negligible effects. The impact is short-lived and concentrated in ordinary trade, differentiated products, and durable goods. These findings indicate complementarity between domestic sales and exports. Our evidence supports the economies of scale channel over liquidity constraints.","PeriodicalId":48251,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Geography","volume":"379 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2026-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148894999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using administrative firm-level accounting data, a shift-share instrument, and an event-study design, we find that STR growth increases exit rates among underperforming firms, while surviving firms experience relative gains in sales and profits, with no effects on employment or investment. Corporate tax revenues accruing to the central government also rise, pointing to broader fiscal spillovers. STR expansion stimulates entrepreneurship, though new entrants face higher costs and lower initial profitability.

We argue that the persistence of a singular global time zone standard depends on technical infrastructures operating largely independently of state and non-state actors. The apparent neutrality of time zones as technical artifacts supporting international coordination required for economic globalization obscures locally negotiated practices shaped by social, biological, political, and economic rationales. The study highlights how globally uniform technical systems can coexist with locally differentiated yet politically contested practices.","PeriodicalId":48251,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Geography","volume":"217 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2026-07-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148440901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
