Research Abstract

In this research, the author clarifies how local government acted against the economic revitalization through the case study of Dalian and Fushun in Liaoning province, China. As a result, it was found that the local government succeeded in attracting foreign companies. In other cities such as Fushun, however, poor financial resources made it difficult to achieve the goal of economic recovery.
