Economics of Planning Policies in China
«
‘Economics of Planning Policies in China analyses the evolution of the planning system, and how urban and regional planning policies intervene and interact with patterns of cities, locational layout and transport infrastructure in China. Understanding these planning implications is a prerequisite for informing policymakers about how to improve urban agglomerations and vibrancy, build regeneration policies to declining areas, and coordinate spatial development in the long run.’ — Professor Wenzhong Zhang, Deputy Director of Key Laboratory of Regional Sustainable Development Modeling, Chinese Academy of Sciences
‘The success of a modern economy is fundamentally about the success of its cities, and the success of cities depends on their internal organisation and the infrastructure that connects them. This research book provides fascinating insights into the way that spatial planning in transport infrastructure and land use and its interaction with the market has helped shape the geography of development in China over recent decades. The book not only contains a wealth of information about the policy background in China, but delivers a wide range of lessons that are useful for anyone studying the role of planning in economic development and the evolution of cities globally.’ — Professor Stephen Gibbons, Director of Spatial Economics Research Center, London School of Economics and Political Science

The planning and geographical perspective and evidence make this book a reference for international scholars, policymakers and graduates
