This timely and comprehensive Handbook addresses how Chinese cities
govern the environmental changes generated by fast economic growth
and urbanisation. Outlining the relationship between the state,
market, and society, this Handbook provides a systematic
understanding of urban environmental governance in China. Exploring
the context of changing urban environmental policies in China,
leading international scholars highlight the arts of governance and
governmentality through experimentation and discourse. Chapters
investigate the political ecologies of eco-cities and conservation,
urban waste management and governance and sustainability
transitions, as well as focusing on low-carbon innovations and
green buildings. With a territorial perspective grounded in Chinese
cities, contributors interrogate changing and complex
state-market-society dynamics in urbanisation and urban
environmental governance. With a thorough and systematic analysis
of new environmental initiatives, practices, and impacts, this
Handbook provides scholars, students, and policy researchers of
environmental studies, politics, and East Asian studies with an
exemplary selection of contemporary research on China’s urban
environmental governance.
