Description

Gain deep insights into the rapid urbanization process through China's Urban Development: Critiques and Observations. This authoritative report presents the findings from the United Nations Development Programme project, City Planning, Management and Development in the 21st Century.

This research focuses on five specific pilot cities: Guizhou, Taiyuan, Liuzhou, Meishan, and Sanmenxia. By examining these locations, the report helps readers understand the specific problems and successes encountered during large-scale urban expansion. Led by Shao Yisheng, Vice President and Professor from the China Academy of Urban Planning & Design, this work offers a professional perspective on city management and planning strategies. It is an essential resource for anyone studying economics, urban planning, or the socio-economic shifts occurring in modern China.
