China's extraordinary economic boom since the late 1970s has been
accompanied by massive urbanization, with the proportion of the
population living in cities rising from 18% in 1978 to 54% in 2014.
Currently the Chinese government has amongst its objectives the
target to increase this to 60% by 2020, and also to improve the
quality of China's cities. This book examines a wide range of
issues connected to China's urbanization. It considers the many
problems which have come with rapid urbanization, including urban
housing problems, difficulties affecting rural migrants in urban
areas, and a lack of social protection. It examines areas of
current reform, including land reform, shanty town renewal and
moves to address environmental problems. It explores governance
issues, and throughout assesses how urbanization in China is likely
to develop in future.
