Expressways in China: Impacts on Growth and the Environment

Guojun He

No 2017-18, HKUST IEMS Thought Leadership Brief Series from HKUST Institute for Emerging Market Studies

Abstract: Guojun He, Faculty Associate of HKUST IEMS, explains why a single, unified economic or environmental policy may backfire, using the case of China’s national expressways. He found that while the cross-nation system was originally conceived as a unified economic policy, counties along the roads were affected very differently in terms of economic growth and pollution.
