Hub Effect

A good traffic hub position has important significance for the development of a city, but it also strengthens the polarization effect, diffusion effect and return effect of the regional central cities for other cities. Does the development of urban hub economy strengthen or weaken these effects? Does hub effect also need other conditions to promote urban economic development? From the perspective of technological innovation, this paper analyses the mediating effect of technology absorption and innovation in the process of urban transportation hub promoting economic development. It is found that the people flow effect in the hub effect can better promote the economic development of cities through the mediating role of knowledge absorptive and innovative ability. In the influence of logistics effect on urban economic development, the mediating role of knowledge absorptive and innovative ability is not significant.

Urban Economic Development

In recent years there has been a growing interest in the process of urban economic development and the role of housing markets in this process is as essential as it is obvious. In order to make progress towards providing answers to some of the important questions relating to the development of towns, it is necessary to try to obtain more precise information on trends in house prices, the level and structure of housing demand and the character of the supply side of the markets. Studies of local housing markets, however, have been constrained by the lack of reliable data on the most important variables and are, therefore, characteristically qualitative and descriptive. Our main objective, therefore, when embarking on the study described below, was to obtain reliable data on which to base analyses of local housing markets.

Three transformations are occurring at present in OECD countries: (1) economic systems are undergoing structural adjustments, (2) the role of government with regard to the economy is being redefined, and (3) the relations among different levels of government as well as between public and private institutions are being revamped. The central question of this paper is what are the impacts of changing intergovernmental relations on planning and implementing urban economic development programmes. Appropriate initiatives necessarily involve a wide range of policies and institutions. The public efforts to confront local economic problems constitute the hub of activities of numerous governmental and quasigovernmental institutions.

Ghana’s national economic transformation has been widely celebrated, but the role of its cities in this transformation is poorly understood. Typically, the contribution of cities in Ghana to the country’s transformation is seen as negative, or non-existent to negligible, at best. This characterization is quite common for cities in Africa for which The State of Africa Cities reports mostly brand as rural poverty-driven settlements. None of these claims, however, is based on a systemic analysis of urban economic development. It is this gap that the present chapter seeks to fill. By developing a particular spatial political economy approach and drawing on a wide range of data, this chapter argues that most urban residents are either born in cities or are attracted to them from the countryside, but urbanization cannot be explained as ‘poverty driven’, especially when rural poverty in the country has been falling and the urban economies of many cities are booming.

Operational Excellence

Leadership Style has been since long acknowledged by management scholars as being an important subject in relation to organizational executions and outcome. An effective leadership would not only be able to prevent job stress and burnout among group members, but would also be successful in enhancing the motivation and engagement of the employees. It has been widely accepted that operational excellence in an organization can only be maintained through engaged employees. In this study the researchers have strived to enhance the understanding of the complex relationship between the organic leadership style and the engagement level of the employees and to further comprehend the mediating role of social relevance of work in association of the two constructs i.e. leadership style and employee engagement, in context of faculty members in higher education sector.
