He has published over 70 academic articles in English journals (including Journal of Political Economy, Journal of Urban Economics, China Economic Review, Land Economics, Economic Letters, Urban Studies), numerous papers in Chinese journals (including Jingji Yanjiu and Chinese Quarterly Journal of Economics), six books in English, and three books in Chinese.  He is an associate editor of Social Science Journal and The Chinese Economy, serves on editorial boards of China Economic Review and Journal of Urban Management, and reviews manuscripts for numerous academic journals.
