Description

Explore the complex social landscapes of two of the world's wealthiest cities in this Routledge hardcover publication. As Hong Kong and Shanghai experience rapid growth driven by managed capital, they face significant social challenges that require substantial financial investment. This book examines how these major urban centers navigate the pressures of aging populations and the rising costs of health finance. As traditional Chinese family structures change, the demand for formal eldercare and social security grows. Readers will gain insights into how these cities manage municipal budgets to address modern needs. Beyond healthcare, the text looks at the changing face of education. It covers the increasing complexity of school systems and the official plans surrounding public tuition. This work is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of urban growth, economic management, and social welfare in China's most prominent metropolitan areas.
