Anotace knihy

This book is an attempt to understand the phenomenon§of urban transformation in Shanghai, one of the§world s fastest growing cities Having once been a§lucrative treaty port, Shanghai has re-embarked on a§quest to become a global economic powerhouse through§the combination of an assimilated industrialized§cityscape and the startling industriousness of§Chinese pragmatism from 1980 onwards. Driven by the§momentum of an increasingly open market-oriented§economy within the politics of a state-controlled§socialist entity, Shanghai's built form and urban§environment have been conceived as a cultural§construction of the conspicuous consumption of the§global financial market. Central to the aim of this§book are the questions on how the global market was§utilized, what internal and external forces were at§play, and the importance given to the perception of§values. This book outlines the city's pragmatic§developments dominated largely by its politics. "The§book offers a well-thought-out perspective in§understanding the amazing transformation of §Shanghai -- an excellent foundation for exploring§contemporary city-building issues." Dr Reinhard§Goethert, Massachusetts Institute of§Technology
