A sea of change has occurred in China since the 1978 economic
reforms. Bringing together the work of leading scholars
specializing in urban China, this book examines what has happened
to the Chinese city undergoing multiple transformations during the
reform era, with an emphasis on new processes of urban formation
and the consequent reconstituted urban spaces. With arguments
against the convergence thesis that sees cities everywhere becoming
more Western in form and suggestions that the Chinese city is best
seen as a multiplex city, Restructuring the Chinese City is an
indispensable text for Chinese specialists, urban scholars and
advanced students in urban geography, urban planning and China
studies.
