商品描述
Bridging theory and empirical analysis, this book offers a comprehensive and data-driven exploration of urban-rural labour markets across advanced economies, shedding light on their structure, efficiency, and evolving dynamics.
Through an extensive literature review and comparative statistical analysis, the book examines key indicators such as labour force participation, unemployment, productivity, and wages. It highlights regional disparities and convergence trends in advanced economies, while emphasizing the critical role of entrepreneurship in balancing labour supply and demand--exploring both Schumpeterian innovation and necessity-driven enterprise.
A standout feature is a unique empirical study using Eurofound data, which investigates whether living in rural areas increases the likelihood of becoming an entrepreneur--offering valuable insights into the potential for rural-urban convergence.
Concluding with forward-looking reflections and directions for future research, this volume is essential reading for scholars and students in economics, geography, sociology, and planning. It also serves as a vital resource for policymakers, regional planners, and practitioners engaged in shaping the future of spatial labour markets.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書橋接理論與實證分析，提供對先進經濟體中城市與農村勞動市場的全面且數據驅動的探索，揭示其結構、效率及不斷演變的動態。
透過廣泛的文獻回顧和比較統計分析，本書檢視了勞動力參與率、失業率、生產力和工資等關鍵指標。它突顯了先進經濟體中的區域差異和趨同趨勢，同時強調了創業在平衡勞動供需中的關鍵角色，探討了熊彼特式的創新與需求驅動的企業。
一個突出的特點是使用Eurofound數據進行的獨特實證研究，調查居住在農村地區是否增加成為企業家的可能性，提供了對農村與城市趨同潛力的寶貴見解。
本書以前瞻性的反思和未來研究方向作結，對於經濟學、地理學、社會學和規劃領域的學者和學生來說，是必讀之作。它同時也是政策制定者、區域規劃者及參與塑造空間勞動市場未來的實務工作者的重要資源。
