Through a cutting-edge theoretical discussion of Chinese architecture in relation to Chinese modernity, this book examines this phenomenon in detail. In particular, it highlights how changes in the social-political system, the residual influence of Mao and the demands of the market have each shaped and determined style and form in recent years. Using key case studies of Liu Jiakun, Cui Kai, and URBANUS, it analyses the intricate details of historical pressures and practical strategies affecting Chinese architecture. In doing so, it demonstrates that Chinese architects contribute in specific ways to the international architectural discourse, since they are actively engaging with the complex societal transition of contemporary China and managing the dynamics and conflicts arising during the process. China's Architecture in a Globalizing World: Between Socialism and the Market offers a lens into the innovation and uniqueness of architectural design in China. As such, this book will be useful for students and scholars of architecture, Chinese culture and society and urban studies.Routledge studies on China in transition.Architecture and societyChinaHistory20th centuryArchitecture and societyChinaHistory21st centuryArchitecture and globalizationChinaHistory20th centuryArchitecture and globalizationChinaHistory21st centuryArchitectureHistory of architectureEthnic studiesRegional studiesArchitecture and societyHistoryArchitecture and societyHistoryArchitecture and globalizationHistoryArchitecture and globalizationHistory720.951/0904Han Jiawen853323FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910504310503321China's architecture in a globalizing world1905419UNINA
