The study finds:(i) price distortion of construction land is a common phenomenon but the distortion index generally shows a declining trend;(ii) regional competition through construction land price distortion shows a weakly intensified pattern, although the competition patterns in the four regions of China varied;and (Hi) the intensity of competition between regions was lower during the 12th Five-year Plan compared to the 11th Plan. The intensity of competition between cities was also lower inside than outside urban agglomerations. These results provide policy implications for remedying the price distortion of construction land and promoting regional coordinated development.展开更多
