It is the story of two master-planned, mixed-use residential and commercial developments that are changing the face of Ho Chi Minh City. The two developments that Erik Harms examines are examples of urban development projects known in Vietnam as 'New Urban Zones.' These programs, which were born in the early 1990s, are steadily reorganizing the urban landscape in cities across the country. For many Vietnamese, they are a symbol of the country's emergence into global modernity and post-socialist economic reforms. However, they are also sites of great contestation, sparking land disputes and controversies over how to compensate evicted residents. This is a vivid portrayal of urban reorganization along deeply human terms, which delves into the complex and sometimes contradictory experiences of individuals grappling with the forces of privatization in a socialist country"--Provided by publisher.Asia--local studies/global themes ;32.City planningVietnamHo Chi Minh CityElectronic books. academic.city development.city living.civilization.class difference.class warfare.contemporary.economic.economy.free market.global.income disparity.international.modern world.personal space.politics.rich and poor.saigon.scholarly.social issues.social problems.urban areas.urban development.urban infrastructure.vietnam.City planning307.1/216095977Harms Erik(Anthropologist),867984MdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910153563903321Luxury and Rubble2037964UNINA
