Abstract

Special Economic Zone (SEZ) is obviously one of the institutional experiments. SEZ was normally narrowed in jurisdiction when it was initially established because of the worries of political risk and social friction. After years of development, the quality of the SEZ has been comprehensively improved, it is necessary to expand the area of the SEZ in order to promote the successful experience and carry out deeply institutional experiments on a larger scope. In the process of area-expanding, administrative division and functional zone are nested with each other and then the nesting space is formed. According to new state spaces theory, the expansion of SEZ in area is an important form of state rescaling and a multidimensional socio-spatial process concerning territory, place, scale and network. Based on the case study of the Shenzhen SEZ and considering the TPSN assemble, the production and restructuring of nesting space is analyzed. The research suggests that there are obvious periodic features in the expanding of Shenzhen SEZ. The comparison of TPSN assembles shows that the assembles are obviously different in the three stages of Shenzhen SEZ region expanding. The synergy effect of resource, policy and aggregate are the direct drivers of production and restructuring of nesting space while network plays the key role in this process. The results show that the research on nesting space in China advanced the frontier of state rescaling theory. In recent years, the central government has actually tightened the institutional supply channel of administrative divisions. Under this circumstance, because of its low cost and flexible, nesting space will become a new regional governing technique to the cities that hungry for upgrading in administrative level or expanding in administrative division.
