Study On Economic Development Of Mountain Fastness

Since the 80s and 90s of 20th century, there are two prominent trends of world economy, i.e. globalization and localization. Study on localization of economy mainly considering part, personality category of regional development, in order to explore route of economic development with local characteristics. Mountain fastness is a special geographical area and its economy is a special geographical area and its economy is a ring of multi-layer structures of regional economic development. It is very important to study the peasant living in mountain fastnesses utilizing its peculiar natural conditions and resources to take commercial productive and operational activities, such as planting, breading, processing, service industries, etc.; probe economic development routes of different kinds of mountain fastnesses with typical environment, and then populize and introduces those to other mountain fastnesses with similar environment to promote mountain fastness economies of our country as a whole to be developed, increasing masses income, upgrading their life quality, improving the ecological environment and promoting regions coordinated development.To study the development problem of mountain fastness economy, we must grasp the primary conditions of economic development of mountain fastness. Many factors, such as special geographical position, natural environment, and resources endowment compose the most basic material condition of mountain fastness influencing its economic development, namely ecological environmental factors group; nationalities (ethnicities) which peasants living in the area with special geographical position belong to have gradually formed its own distinctive national features and cultural contest, namely nationality cultural factors group; meanwhile, it also formed its specific mode of production and life style, etc. namely social economic factors group. So, study on mountain fastness economy is different from the research on ordinary mountain area development, and its economy, and also from the research on national economy with a certain national characteristics being in close with national factors. Moreover, to study the development problem of mountain fastness economy, we must hold its basic characteristics. In the social economic life of reality, the development of mountain fastness economy is constrained by many factors, such as natural factors including regional natural conditions, natural resources' distribution, geographical position differences, etc.; economic factors including the previous economic development level, thestate of existing productivity, the infrastructural current situation, etc.; social factors including the size of population and its intensity, nationalities, culture and environmental protection, and all these factors make the mountain fastness economy present such traits as obvious close, lagging behind, environmental vulnerability, nationality, and so on. The starting point of the study is to analyze the development of mountain fastness economy and master its characteristics.The paper is divided into ten chapters. In the Preamble, the author analyses conditions of mountain fastness economy s development, mountain fastness economy and its characteristics, proposes the significance of the economy s development; and taking the current situation of economic development of Wuling mountain area, puts forward the problem of differences among regional economies and their coordinated development in our country s regional economy s development, and pays new attention to the economic development of mountain fastness. Chapter Two analyses the formation and development of mountain fastness economy, has made an overall evaluation of its economic development and discusses the advantage and restrictive factors of mountain fastness economy. Chapter Three the route choice of development of mountain fastness economy, analyses problems that should be resolved of the route choice, i.e. the problem of exploiting strong resources, the problem of enoironmental protection, the problem of human resources development and the problem of marketization development; discusses the basis and principles of the route choice, and then puts forward the route design of economic development of mountain fastness, i.e. concept innovation, developing characteristic economy, cooperation among regions, increasing investment benefits, promoting science and technology education, expanding market, etc. Chapter Four puts forward the concept of developing mountain fastness economy with characteristics. Chapter Five analyses the concept of sustainable development of mountain fastness economy. Chapter Six analyses comprehensive development of mountain fastness economy and puts forward the view of developing mountain fastness economy from outside of it and gives some specific measures. Chapter Seven analyses marketization development of mountain fastness economy, expounds the context and significance of it and then proposes a route of Marketization development. Chapter Eight explores the problem of institutional innovation on economic development of mountain fastness, analyses the constrain of mountain fastness economy s development from the lack of institution, dissects successful experience of economic development of mountain fastness caused by institutional innovation and poses a concept about institutional innovation of economic development of mountain fastness. Chapter Nine does some experimentalresearch about mountain fastness economy. Chapter Ten has formed the conclusion of economic development of mountain fastness and gives some countermeasures and suggestions.The development problem of mountain fastness economy is not paid attention to by people for a long time. Researches about mountain fastness economic development applying regional economics, development economics, ecology, institutional economics theories to economic development systematically are as rare as phoenix features and unicorn horns. The author has been engaged to the research for several years, some projects been set up and supported by Hunan Natural Science Fund and Department of Education, four papers been full reprinted by Journal of Agricultural Economics, on paper been extracted by XinHuaWenZhai. This proves that economic development of mountain fastness is concerned much by people.Based on the analyzation of conditions and traits of economic development of mountain fastness, this paper puts forward problems of economic development of mountain fastness, constructs the general theory framework of economic development of mountain fastness; and the title itself is worth opening up and innovating. In addition, this paper has some innovations in content system and methods, as follows:First, studying the special regional economy, i.e. mountain fastness economy, from micro- level, this paper puts forward some pertinent and strong operational development countermeasures. Ordinary researches mainly discuss development problems of regional economy from macro-level, for example, research on economies of the Eastern, the Central and the Western, mountain area economy development, so the range of area is relatively large and its counter measures are often difficult to operate in the process of implementing. While, mountain fastness is a special economic area, belongs to micro-region level. The study on mountain fastness economy must considers the problem of locality and particularity, and its generality, namely different mountain fastness economies have many inherent similarities. So, the effectiveness of its countermeasures is relatively strong.Second, takeing the institutional innovation as a superior field to promote the mountain fastness economy's development, this paper puts forward principles which should be followed in institutional innovation. On the development problem of mountain fastness economy, author exploratory advances the basic train of thoughts and content of institutional innovation. Because of the importance of institutional factors, the author ascribes institutional analysis and innovation into the research on economic development of mountain fastness.Third, the author studies the problem in a multi-disciplinary, multi-angle way. For example, the research utilizes research results of regional economics to solve problemsexisting in economic development of mountain fastness, which provides a 'regional' angle to study; utilizes research results of development economics to solve these problems, which provides a 'development' angle to study; utilizes research results of national economics to solve these problems, which provides a 'national' angle to study; utilizes research results of economic anthropology to interpret the development problem from narrow economic growth to the quality of' sustainable' and human-oriented and improve life quality in all-direction in our research, which provides a 'human' angle to study.
