This article examines the microgeography of diplomacy, particularly its localized embodiment in a corps diplomatique and international governmental organizations. Drawing on the case of The Hague, we map embassies and consider the locations of organizations engaged with interstate and transnational relations. The article raises questions about diplomatic form and function, whereby urban, economic, and political geographies intersect around issues of diplomacy, representation, and security. Our case study has implications for the study of other diplomatic centers and poses research questions about diplomacy as a spatial practice pertaining to diplomatic buildings, diplomatic clusters, para-diplomacy, and securitization. 相似文献

This paper investigates the spatial and hierarchical patterns of interstate banking, major interstate-banking command and control centers, and the spatial structure of the major interstate-banking organizations in the early 1990s. The research has identified a distinct geographical pattern of interstate banking, a spatially skewed and regionally focused pattern of interstate-banking command and control fields, 15 interstate-banking hierarchical systems, and dominance of regional and western centers over New York and Chicago in interstate banking. In addition, determination of major interstate-banking command and control centers is discussed and the 26 largest centers are identified. Finally, this paper demonstrates that spatial networks of major bank holding companies, especially those of regionals and super-regionals, are the foundation of the spatial structure of interstate banking. 相似文献

Pluralism as Principle in Urban Geography 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0
《Urban geography》2013,34(6):501-502
This paper examines the geographic shifts in the corporate control of banking which have resulted from interstate acquisitions between 1982 and mid-year 1986. Ninety-nine transactions during the study period have resulted in the interstate transfer of corporate control of $88 billion in assets. In the Southeast, North Carolina and Georgia banks have gained control of assets at the expense of the banking industry in Florida and South Carolina. Within the New England region, Massachusetts banks have made major acquisitions in neighboring states. In the West, California banks have been active with acquisitions in Arizona and Washington. The pattern of acquisitions has been influenced not only by the geographyof interstate banking legislation but also by the relative size of banks. The roles of Atlanta, Charlotte, Boston, and Los Angeles as regional money centers have been expanded because of interstate banking acquisitions. 相似文献

Statistical analysis of foreign direct investment in the United States reveals source country differences in interstate location. We relate these differences to the knowledge foreign investors have of the United States. Regression analysis indicates a significant concentration of foreign investment from individual countries in larger states and in border states. Worldwide investment in the United States does not show these preferences. Investment from Japan and Canada accounted for most of the interstate dispersal of foreign employment in the 1980s. 相似文献

对于后危机时期对立国家间在特定领域的合作关系的延续,“复合相互依赖”模式提供了有力的理论解释力。正如乌克兰危机陷入僵局后,西方国家对俄罗斯采取经济制裁,与俄罗斯的政治和军事关系也全面破裂;然而,俄罗斯与西方国家的合作关系却并未完全中断,至少在北极地区的搜救、渔业、航运、北极理事会等功能性领域的合作依然继续,使得北极国际合作呈现出断裂性和连续性的动态组合。现阶段的北极地区关系反映了一个事先存在的“复合相互依赖”状态,通过联系战略、议程设置和国际机制等政治进程,避免国家间关系的全面破裂并抑制危机的外溢,同时为冲突各方保有在有限领域的沟通渠道,推动信任关系的重塑。 相似文献

A method is described for cartographically illustrating interstate flows of federal monies within the contiguous United States, using as data the differences between government collections and expenditures by state. It is assumed that movements between surplus and deficit areas are governed by a potential field, for which the driving potential can be interpreted as political “strength.'’Resulting computer-drawn maps reveal Frostbelt-Sunbelt flows as well as flows toward New England and Washington state. The cumulated total movement, or flux, yields a 48-by-48 table of interstate transfers. These are likewise mapped by computer, the state centroids being connected by arrows whose width is proportional to the magnitude of flows. 相似文献

Impacts of nuclear power plants are generally considered on a local scale only. A schema that considers local and interstate convergence and divergence is found useful in identifying the widespread nature of the impacts, especially those associated with a local decision to build a nuclear facility. Of the four possible subdivisions within this schema, three apply to the Palo Verde power plant near Phoenix, AZ. 相似文献

Successful exit enables businesses to continue with minimal disruption and provides owners with financial returns on their investments. Notwithstanding considerable scholarship in economic geography on rural and regional economic fortunes, experiences of small business exit are seldom explored. In response, this study analyses the barriers and enablers of voluntary exit by regional small business owners. A qualitative research approach with deductive thematic analysis is used to assess enablers and barriers to exit for regional small businesses, drawing upon small business literature, but cognisant of economic geographic factors. Twenty small business owners in Armidale and three business brokers were interviewed. Findings indicate that firm-level factors such as exit planning, market expansion and good performance can help overcome location barriers to exit. The regional setting makes stewardship and cessation exit strategies more feasible than financial reward strategies. Barriers to exit include: the small pool of buyers, small market, dependence on few customers, and inadequate infrastructure. Lack of exit planning and tenancy disputes also hinder exit. 相似文献

Three main kinds of economic-geographical position (EGP) of Siberia: global, international transit and neighboring, and interstate, are considered. A quantitative assessment is made of the macroregion’s global position relative to world markets. The study ascertained the role played by the EGP in the formation of economic-settlement patterns of Siberia. The possible avenues for more intense use of this position are suggested. 相似文献

宅基地退出外部环境地域差异实证分析——基于武汉市东西湖区84个样点的分析 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
现阶段中国宅基地“乱象”引起了全社会的高度关注,学者们围绕宅基地退出问题从各个视角进行了广泛的探讨。宅基地退出外部环境作为外生约束条件,对农户宅基地退出意愿具有重要影响。本文以收益性空间界限理论为基础,构建了宅基地退出外部环境收益空间界限模型;并以2015年武汉市东西湖区84个宅基地样点为对象,从微观尺度单元视角对城乡宅基地退出外部环境综合收益地域差异进行系统分析。结果发现：城乡结合区农户宅基地退出外部环境综合收益为正(B>0),宅基地退出外部环境较好,农户宅基地退出意愿较高;而城市中心区和偏远农村地区宅地基退出外部环境综合收益为负(B<0),宅基地退出外部环境较差,农户宅基地退出意愿不高。研究结论可为政府在宅基地退出管理中“因地施策”,构建“城乡互助”宅基地退出机制提供决策参考依据。 相似文献

中国的地区企业进入与退出关联研究 总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1
企业的进入退出存在显著的前后关联,关联机制可以分解为竞争效应与乘数效应。本文探讨了1998-2013年间中国制造业企业的空间格局演化过程,发现地级市尺度的企业动态存在明显的时空关联。16年间,企业动态空间格局发生了剧烈演变,逐渐表现出同类型地区集聚现象。利用差分GMM的动态面板模型验证了企业动态在时间上的前后依赖关系。前期的进入与退出对本期企业动态有不同的影响,竞争效应决定企业的进入,乘数效应决定企业的退出。前期企业动态对后期进入的影响会立即显现出来并随时间衰减,而对退出的影响则存在明显滞后效应,在两年之后达到峰值。同时,产业动态关联机制存在显著的空间差异,其中东部地区显示出更强的竞争效应。不同发展水平的地区应采取差别化的政策来指导地区的产业发展,实现产业更新、结构升级和区域经济的可持续发展。东部地区应建立企业准入门槛,降低低效企业退出壁垒;西部地区应该积极吸引新企业进入,并保护在位企业,防止企业退出导致的连锁性萧条。 相似文献

As demand and competition for water resources increase, the river basin has become the primary unit for water management and planning. While appealing in principle, practical implementation of river basin management and allocation has often been problematic. This paper examines the case of the Krishna basin in South India. It highlights that conflicts over basin water are embedded in a broad reality of planning and development where multiple scales of decisionmaking and non-water issues are at play. While this defines the river basin as a disputed "space of dependence", the river basin has yet to acquire a social reality. It is not yet a "space of engagement" in and for which multiple actors take actions. This explains the endurance of an interstate dispute over the sharing of the Krishna waters and sets limits to what can be achieved through further basin water allocation and adjudication mechanisms – tribunals – that are too narrowly defined. There is a need to extend the domain of negotiation from that of a single river basin to multiple scales and to non-water sectors. Institutional arrangements for basin management need to internalise the political spaces of the Indian polity: the states and the panchayats. This re-scaling process is more likely to shape the river basin as a space of engagement in which partial agreements can be iteratively renegotiated, and constitute a promising alternative to the current interstate stalemate. 相似文献

Interstate migration exchanges in the United States are temporally and spatially transitory. Both the early and mid-1980s exhibited significant fluctuations in the origins and destinations of U.S. migrants, while the late 1980s and early 1990s were even more unstable. Regions once favored by interstate movers such as the West and the South, while remaining attractive, showed evidence of declining favor in the early 1990s. Meanwhile, numerous states in the national interior regained their attractiveness, including several that gained net migrants for the first time in decades. California exhibited a major turnaround in its migration, perturbing the entire U.S. migration system. 相似文献

In many industries, insufficient attention has been given to how location affects prices. One such industry is lodging. This article examines room rates for budget hotels and motels in four southwestern U.S. states during 1998. Using hedonic analysis, published prices are estimated for nearly 600 establishments belonging to six national chains. OLS regression uncovers how site attributes (pools, spas, and complimentary breakfasts) and situation attributes (temperature, interstate location, and specialization of the local economy) affect room rates. Prices for overnight stays during summer and winter seasons are examined. Differential effects of site and situation attributes on price heterogeneity are discussed. 相似文献

"Despite the widespread interest in the changing geographies of national migration regimes, it is somewhat remarkable that no widely accepted measure of the spatial concentration or focus exhibited by such geographies has emerged. We examine four of the most popular indices of inequality in this paper and contrast their performance as measures of spatial focus. Adopting the coefficient of variation as our preferred alternative, we go on to examine the spatial focus of aggregate interstate migration steams in the U.S. over time. Then we consider disaggregations of the migration streams by age, race and nativity, and examine the role of states as national redistributors of these same subpopulations." 相似文献

二战后,为解决严重的住房短缺问题,美国联邦政府一方面继续鼓励发展郊区住宅,如为退伍军人制定优惠贷款政策、修建州际高速公路,另一方面发起了城市更新运动,试图通过拆除城市中心衰败社区来改善居住环境,为城市中心的发展注入新的活力。然而,这些政策在推动郊区化的同时,也加剧了城市中心的衰落。这些政策的实施,既塑造了战后美国城市面貌,也对诸如城市暴乱、社会分化等问题负有责任。 相似文献

Cities have been a prominent source of water pollution over the years. Historians have argued an instrumental conception of water-use that developed in New-England-sanctioned environmental abuses in the interest of economic development. This interpretation assumes both a geographic and temporal consistency in policy responses to water-quality degradation. Several historical assessments of state laws, a review of court cases responding to complaints to pollution, and conference proceedings of federal intervention in interstate pollution disputes provide a means to re-examine the instrumental interpretation. Both early nuisance law suits and early federal enforcement bypassed the country's urban-industrial core. Yet outside the region with the greatest concentration of urban population and industrial discharges, the instrumental perspective was less pronounced exposing geographic and temporal variation in the development of both state and federal pollution policy. 相似文献
