Abstract

Spatial econometrics is a fast growing research area, with the theories and methods developed over the past five decades or so being applied more and more widely, not only in the specialized fields such as regional science, real estate, economic geography, and urban economics, but also increasingly in the general fields such as economics, finance and social networks, in particular in the recent decade. One of the driving forces is perhaps the formation of the Spatial Econometrics Association (SEA) at Rome in 2006 and its subsequent annul conference started in 2007 at the Cambridge University, which have helped greatly the development and the dissemination of the spatial econometrics methods. The XI World Conference of the Spatial Econometrics Association, held in Singapore in June 2017, particularly witnessed such a success, due to the strong support of the world leading experts: Peter Robinson, Lung-Fei Lee and Jushan Bai as Keynote speakers, and Badi Baltagi, Ingmar Prucha, Anil Bera, Giuseppe Arbia, Paul Elhorst, and Jesus Mur as invited speakers.
