China's urban population is on track to reach 1 billion by 2030. The rapid expansion of urban China is astonishing, but new policies are urgently needed to create healthier cities. Combining on-the-ground reportage and up-to-date research, this pivotal book explains why China has failed to reap many of the economic and social benefits of urbanization, and suggests how these problems can be resolved. 410 0$aAsian arguments. 606 $aRural-urban migration$zChina 606 $aUrbanization$zChina 606 $aHuman geography$2bicssc 615 0$aRural-urban migration 615 0$aUrbanization 615 7$aHuman geography 676 $a307.14160951 700 $aMiller$b Tom$c(Journalist),$01109070 801 0$bEBLCP 801 1$bCaBNVSL 801 2$bCaBNVSL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786488503321 996 $aChina's urban billion$93858272 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02669nam 2200637 a 450 001 9910782516203321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a1-60994-345-7 010 $a1-282-29933-6 010 $a9786612299339 010 $a1-57675-517-7 035 $a(CKB)1000000000689036 035 $a(EBL)322124 035 $a(OCoLC)191246106 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000249690 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11176660 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000249690 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10230968 035 $a(PQKB)11218670 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL322124 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10205962 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL229933 035 $a(OCoLC)309177835 035 $a(CaSebORM)9781576755174 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC322124 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000689036 100 $a20070118d2007 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aSpeechless$b[electronic resource] $ethe erosion of free expression in the American workplace /$fBruce Barry 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aSan Francisco $cBerrett-Koehler Publishers$dc2007 215 $a1 online resource (303 p.) 225 1 $aA BK currents book 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 $a1-57675-397-2 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 233-275) and index. 327 $aIntroduction: speechless at work in America -- When work and speech collide -- Constitutional rights in public and private -- Unemployment at will -- Public employee speech -- A chill in the private sector -- Why free speech works -- Civil rights and wrongs -- Speech in the digital age -- Managing expression inside the workplace -- Conclusion: the case for freer expression -- Acknowledgments -- Notes -- Index -- About the author. 330 $aAs our forms of communication continue to evolve, the question of freedom of expression in the workplace will stay on the front burner and interest continues to increase.
