Urban China's Rural Fringe
Actors, Dimensions and Management Challenges
«’With so much attention focused on Chinese Mega-cites, this book offers fresh and valuable insights. Indeed, rural China has been washed over by city growth but as this timely book shows, traditional culture remains. For everyone interested in sustainability, cultural conservation and balanced growth, I highly recommended it.’ Jeffrey L. Soule, Director, International Programs, American Planning Association, USA ’The past decades have witnessed a rapid urbanisation in China. The changes in the rural fringe of China’s cities present the best examples to researchers for investigating the transition of urban-rural fringe in the context of industrialisation, globalisation, political decentralisation, economic reforms and social democratisation. This book is the finest collection of scholarly essays I know on this topic.’ Pengjun Zhao, Peking University, China»
