The urban-rural relationship in China is key to a sustainable
global future. This book is particularly interested in
peri-urbanization in China, the process by which fringe areas of
cities develop. Recent institutional change has helped clarify
property rights over collective land, facilitating peri-urban area
development. Chapters in this book explore how rural
industrialization has changed the landscape and rules about land
use in peri-urban areas. It looks at the role of rural
industrialization and provides a detailed exploration of
peri-urbanization theory, policy, and its evolution in China.
Leading discussions find out how fragmented bottom-up
industrialization, urbanization, and lax governance have led to a
series of social and environmental problems. The progress in
redevelopment of peri-urban areas was initially slow due to the
spatial lock-in effect. This book offers practical solutions to
environmental issues and explains how policymakers have the
potential to redevelop a future collaborative, inclusive, and
sustainable approach to peri-urban areas. This in-depth approach to
urbanization will be useful to academics in urban planning and
governmental organizations. It will also be advantageous to NGOs
and professionals involved in urban planning, public
administration, as well as land-use work in China and other
developing countries.
