Book Description
The urban-rural relationship in China is key to a sustainable global future. This book is particularly interested in peri-urbanization in China, the process by which fringe areas of cities develop. Recent institutional change has helped clarify property rights over collective land, facilitating peri-urban area development. Chapters in this book explore how rural industrialization has changed the landscape and rules about land use in peri-urban areas. It looks at the role of rural industrialization and provides a detailed exploration of peri-urbanization theory, policy, and its evolution in China. Leading discussions find out how fragmented bottom-up industrialization, urbanization, and lax governance have led to a series of social and environmental problems. The progress in redevelopment of peri-urban areas was initially slow due to the spatial lock-in effect. This book offers practical solutions to environmental issues and explains how policymakers have the potential to redevelop a future collaborative, inclusive, and sustainable approach to peri-urban areas. This in-depth approach to urbanization will be useful to academics in urban planning and governmental organizations. It will also be advantageous to NGOs and professionals involved in urban planning, public administration, as well as land-use work in China and other developing countries.

Book Description
As China is transformed, relations between society, the state, and the city have become central. The Great Urban Transformation investigates what is happening in cities, the urban edges, and the rural fringe in order to explain these relations. In the inner city of major metropolitan centers, municipal governments battle high-ranking state agencies to secure land rents from redevelopment projects, while residents mobilize to assert property and residential rights. At the urban edge, as metropolitan governments seek to extend control over their rural hinterland through massive-scale development projects, villagers strategize to profit from the encroaching property market. At the rural fringe, township leaders become brokers of power and property between the state bureaucracy and villages, while large numbers of peasants are dispossessed, dispersed, and deterritorialized, and their mobilizational capacity is consequently undermined. The Great Urban Transformation explores these issues, and provides an integrated analysis of the city and the countryside, elite politics and grassroots activism, legal-economic and socio-political issues of property rights, and the role of the state and the market in the property market.

Abstract: Abstract of dissertation entitled Governance Mechanisms of Governance Mechanisms of Urban Fringe Land Use in China: Urban Fringe Land Use in China: A Case Study of Nanjing A Case Study of Nanjing Submitted by Xin Yao Xin Yao for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong in April 2004 Urban sprawl has taken place since China carried out urban fringe land use planning over two decades ago. This dissertation endeavours to explore the factors leading to such weak controls over urban expansion. Many scholars have attributed these weak controls over urban fringe land use to land developers, managers, landowners and other land users, claiming that these land use agencies only look after their own interests. Other scholars have instead attributed such weak controls to local governments. They claim that these governments have failed to observe the policies of the Central government and they only have local development in mind. Nevertheless, such an approach is inapplicable to the actual economic situation, in which a transition from planned economy to socialist market economy has been taken place. Bear in mind that market forces and power of government coexist in the transition of socialist economy. Both the agencies and the local governments acting on behalf of the Central government can have their voice heard in decision-making involving urban fringe land use development. Although various agencies have emerged after the initiation of urban land reforms, the Central government can still exercise its influence over them. Recently, some scholars consider that government capacities have been embedded in social problems. This dissertation has adopted the theoretical framework for exploring Ithe social problems in China that have exerted their influence on China's urban fringe land use planning institutions. Ever since the land reform has initiated in China, urban sprawl in Nanjing has emerged in succession. As a result, the Nanjing municipal government has exerted more control over the urban fringe land use in order to curb the increasingly grave situation of urban sprawl. A great number of urban fringe land use institutions have been established including the institutions of urban fringe land use zoning, urban growth boundary, rural land balance system and rural land occupation tax. In the meantime, the Nanjing municipality has been confronted with serious social problems, in particular urban-rural disparity. I argued that this discrepancy would effect the planning institutions of urban fringe land use exactly. To substantiate my argument, I have selected three projects of urban fringe land development involving different agencies for discussion. They are Metro-J project (foreign-funded project receiving foreign direct investment), JHTID-S project (state-funded) and BASF-Y project (Chinese-foreign joint venture). Through an investigation into the land use planning permissions of the three projects mentioned above. I have found that agencies emerging in land development are always striving for their own interests. At the same time, the Nanjing Municipal Planning Bureau (NMPB) represents the Central government in making policies for urban fringe land use. The implementation of such policies like urban fringe land use zoning, urban growth boundary, arable land balance system and arable land occupation tax have created an extremely unfav

Book Description
This edited volume reviews important contemporary issues through relevant case studies and research in China and Australia, such as the challenges posed by climate change, the development of eco-urban design, research on sustainable habitats and the relationship between ecology, green architecture and city regeneration, as well as, in general, the future of the city in the new millennium. The authors represent a broad selection of international experts, young scholars and established academics who discuss themes related to urban–rural destruction and economic and spatial regeneration techniques, the sustainable reconversion of natural landscapes and eco-urban design in the context of the current evolution of architectural and urbanism practice. The book aims to explain the conditions in which the contemporary debate about urban regeneration and rural revitalisation has developed in Australia and China, presented by different theoretical and methodological perspectives. It also provides a multifaceted and critical analysis of relevant case studies and urban experiences in Australia and China, focusing on environmental disruption, resized urban interventions and the need for more efficient and sustainable forms of regeneration and urban renewal practice in urban–rural contexts. This book will be an invaluable resource for architects, planners, architectural and urban historians, geographers, and scholars interested in modern Australian and Chinese architecture and urbanism.
