It has been debated that effective essential public services delivery is crucial to inculcate inclusive growth in cities over the past decades. Cities continue to be central to the debate; however, the current study focuses on industrial towns. As industrial towns' development around cities attract investment and promote economic growth, the present research studies the impact of essential public services delivery on promoting inclusive growth for inhabitants of industrial towns in developing countries.

This paper empirically analyzes the determinants of rural poverty in developing countries. Using data from a sample of 32 developing countries we are able to show that income redistribution in favor of the poorest 10 percent of the population, improving the productivity of agricultural workers, raising the economic and social status of women, especially of rural women, government policies aimed at reducing systemic discrimination against ethnic minorities, encouraging tourism where possible, and programs designed to assist the irrigation of croplands are called for in the quest for alleviating

Purpose Entrepreneurial ecosystems are receiving growing attention from scholars, practitioners and policy-makers in both developed and developing countries. Studies of this phenomenon have focused almost exclusively on ecosystems in large, urbanized regions and metropolitan areas, located primarily in developed economies. However, the prevalence of small cities across the globe and the increasing acknowledgment that entrepreneurship in small towns is a key determinant of their economic development and rejuvenation suggests that entrepreneurial ecosystems research would benefit from a broader

Abstract:
Strengthening the service function of small towns, using its fundamental role in the urban system to drive rural development, is the main issue that needs to be addressed urgently in numerous developing countries. County towns are unique types of small towns in China. Analyzing the spatial-temporal patterns and differentiation mechanisms of comprehensive service functions of county towns in China from a geographic point of view can not only provide a basis for the macro-control of county towns but also provide typical regional research results for the study of urban systems and urban–rural coo

Dumping is one of the inevitable societal behaviours because waste can only be controlled but not eliminated completely. The rapidly growing developing countries have cities, towns and trading centres emerging daily coupled with increasing populations can be well related to poor drainage and irresponsible dumping in water channels.

The dissertation explores how distinctive institutional factors related to property rights determine urban development patterns and housing tenure modalities in a developing economy context. The first part proposes a choice-theoretic model that explains the existence of the Antichresis contractual arrangement as a way to temporarily divide property rights. The model explains why the Antichresis contract dominates the Periodic-Rent contract in terms of landlord profits for certain types of property in which the gains in expected profits from solving the problem of adverse selection of tenants o

This paper studies the impact of a fragmented labor market on city structure to explain the spatial coexistence of formal and informal labor sectors characteristic of cities in developing countries. I explore reasons for structural differences among cities in developed and developing countries, which current models in urban economics and New Economic Geography have not yet considered. While existing models suggest that poorer people will live in the periphery of the city, I relax assumptions of uniform space requirement and commuting costs to show that clusters of informal labor will form with

Abstract:
AbstractDigital technologies are an increasingly important part of societies and economies. International benchmarks suggest that countries and cities worldwide are progressing in their digitalisation efforts. Unfortunately, some parts of society and the economy are under-represented in extant measurement frameworks and composite indices and are in danger of being left behind. This chapter presents an integrated framework for measuring and benchmarking the evolution and development of digital towns. The Digital Town Readiness Framework can be used to obtain an initial characterisation and understanding of key sectors and enabling infrastructure in smaller and rural towns, develop plans for the digital transformation of towns, and benchmark progress against regional, national and international indicators. Methodology and implementation considerations are also presented.

Abstract:
Municipal bonds are an innovative external source of financing for strengthening the financial sustainability of cities—one of the main objectives of Strategy 2030 of the Asian Development Bank (ADB). This publication provides timely information to both ADB staff and its developing member countries on how to leverage municipal bonds as an important instrument to finance climate-resilient infrastructure and make cities more livable. It documents valuable experiences and lessons learned from advanced and emerging economies. This publication recommends strategies on how to promote greater issuanc

Abstract:
This policy brief offers the following recommendations to local policymakers in developing economies to overcome critical obstacles to closing cities’ climate finance gaps: (i) prepare city-level climate finance plans and investment strategies; (ii) diversify financial approaches and build community-driven sustainability financing; (iii) improve internal capacity, information disclosure, and prudential regulations; (iv) develop bankable projects and provide incentives to strengthen private sector engagement.

Abstract:
Climate change and urbanisation are inextricably linked. With the acceleration of urbanisation in many developing countries, urban areas play a major role in energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. This is true of Nepal, which has experienced rapid urbanisation in recent decades. However, no studies were identified that evaluate the efforts of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from low carbon cities in rapidly urbanising developing countries. Although, there is literature out there on this that focuses on developed countries and the Global North, this is outside the scope of thi

Abstract:
There is evidence to show that Chinese companies, with some state credit backing, are selling digital surveillance technologies to developing countries, which are then sometimes used in authoritarian practices. However, there is little direct evidence to show that surveillance technologies sold by Chinese companies have more authoritarian potential than the technologies sold by non-Chinese companies. Some researchers define “surveillance technologies” as including any form of digital infrastructure. There is data to show that developing country governments are contracting Chinese companies to

Full text
Abstract:
This paper examines why a larger share of COVID-19 deaths occurs among young and middle-aged adults in developing countries than in high-income countries. Using novel data at the country, city, and patient levels, we investigate the drivers of this gap in terms of the key components of the standard Susceptible-Infected-Recovered framework. We obtain three main results. First, we show that the COVID-19 mortality age gap is not explained by younger susceptible populations in developing countries. Second, we provide indirect evidence that higher infection rates play a role, showing that variables

Abstract:
Under rapid urbanization that took place from around 1960 to 1990, the Republic of Korea has been facing various urban problems such as the expansion of urban slum, traffic congestion and environmental pollution. Among the various responses to these challenges, New Town development can be regarded as one of the most successful and effective strategies, which hasover 50 years of development history in five phases. Korea's New Towns were developed with three main purposes according to the periodic needs: industry support, housing supply, and nationwide balanced development. Phase I New Towns (19
