| dc.description.abstract | To explore how cross-border industrial linkages are constructed between the centre and peripheral cities of the metropolitan area, this study takes the perspective of enterprise linkages and selects three county- level cities which are adjacent to Shanghai, as cases. First, city networks in the Shanghai metropolitan area are built using enterprise headquarter-branch linkage data; then, the descriptive statistical analysis is conducted based on enterprise questionnaires. The results show that from 2001 to 2018, enterprise linkages between Shanghai and its surrounding county-level cities increased significantly. The market forces in the industrial linkages between the three cities and Shanghai have somewhat transcended administrative barriers, which is the result of enterprises' 'voting with their feet'. The key reason why enterprises are located in these three cities is that they are close to Shanghai for access to productive services, technology, labour, information and other resources while enjoying the lower rent and preferential policies of the local industrial parks.
