Solomon.China's rise as a global power is one of the major economic and political developments of the past fifty years. One seemingly inevitable outcome of industrialization is urbanization, and this definitive study surveys the key aspects of China's massive wave of urbanization with an emphasis on the changes to the quality of life of urban dewellers. With contributions from authors in a variety of fields, Aspects of Urbanization in China creates a resonant and rich portrait of China's global ambitions, as well as their culture, architecture, and economy. While the volume deals with disparate aspects of urbanization, the articles included are unified by a deep concern for Chinese citizens.IIAS publications series.Edited volumes ;6.UrbanizationChinaChinaSocial conditionsUrbanization338.9ZH 4962rvkBracken Gregory1247144MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910141280403321Aspects of urbanization in China4130857UNINA
