Full textAbstract:
The Greater Pearl River Delta (GPRD) region in China has been dramatically changing since the economic reform in the late 1970s. The ‘front shop back factory’ model of industrialisation and urbanisation between Hong Kong and the hinterland cities in the region had resulted in the significant economic success, which albeit encountered several bottleneck problems. To tackle them, a new development pattern seems emerging, with more focuses on balanced growth and regional synergy in accordance with industrial upgrading towards the knowledge-intensive economy.
Through the review of related literature, the research on the new pattern is linked with various classical theories and developmental concepts in the fields of industrial geography, technological innovation, as well as urban and regional planning and development. It reveals that these theories and concepts would contribute to the transition of GPRD’s industrialisation and urbanisation. Moreover, it is indicated that the concept of ‘technopole’ and its planning and development can contribute to this new pattern of urban and regional growth under current circumstances.
To study the new pattern, the author conducts a detailed case study on Shenzhen, a planned city in the region with a short development history and successful economic growth attributed to economic reform. Based on a qualitative effort of data collection through secondary-data and documentary research, the study employs multiple methods for the description, interpretation, and deduction of the case, towards the understanding on three key research themes: new growth pattern (balanced development and regional synergy), urban and regional planning, and technopole development. The case study aims to fill in the gaps between Western theories and their application in China, and build connections between academic exploration and real practice.
The planning and development history of Shenzhen and an overview of the city’s technopole development are documented, which illustrate a picture of industrialisation, urbanisation, and technological development in the study area. The evolution of growth centres and their contribution to the city’s growth trajectory are also analysed. At the same time, three typical technopoles of the city, namely, the Shenzhen High-tech Industrial Park (SHIP), the Huaqiangbei area, and the Overseas Chinese Town (OCT), are taken into examination, leading to categories of findings: spatial establishment, development pattern, and key characteristics of innovative milieux.
Through the case study of Shenzhen and its technopoles, the research came to a conclusion in three aspects. First, the linkages between Western theories and their application in China are identified, which provide a feasible theoretical support for the new development pattern. Second, progress in planning and development system is concluded in accordance with the transition of the city and the evolution of the growth centres, which is expected to facilitate better understanding and implementation of the new pattern. Third, key issues of planning and making of technopoles are summarized based on the case of Shenzhen, leading to suggestions on possible improvement for future development.published_or_final_version

Full textAbstract:
The social implications involved in the planning issues have aroused more attention in recent decades, with the proliferation of theories, studies and empirical researches. The milestone can be cited as the principles of social justice, which put forward new social ethics that is opposite to the traditional utilitarianism theory. The principles from social equity put forward new requirements to the planning. In Chinese cities, the fast pace of economic development after open door policy, at the same time, makes a neglecting of social development, especially in terms of social equity.
With the understanding of concepts, this paper constructs an analytical framework for the social equity assessment in the public facility provision, based on the accessibility measurement. And empirical study of urban park planning in study area gives a visualized result through the facilitation of GIS. In addition to the major analysis part, the rethinking of urban parks planning process and mechanism is as well taken in an effort to make the assessment more comprehensive. After the question of whether or not urban parks service is distributed equitably, recommendations for future planning are raised.published_or_final_version

Full textAbstract:
The production of China’s new urban spaces is an important articulation of China’s local state transformation and evolving state-society relations. Previous studies have utilized theories of the entrepreneurial state and corporatism to examine the role of the Chinese state and China’s state-society relations. The entrepreneurial characteristic and direct involvement in productive and profitable activities of the Chinese state are widely analyzed. And state corporatism helps explain how the Chinese Party-state deals with new social strata, such as private entrepreneurs, through state imposition, sponsorship and co-optation. In both fields, the organizational adaptation of the Communist Party of China (CPC) per se to the changing social stratification structure, industrial structure and urban spatial structure plays a key role in undertaking entrepreneurial local governance and imposing control over China’s new social spaces.
This thesis is based on an in-depth case study of Ningbo’s state-led urban redevelopment from 2000 to 2011, the two representative projects of which are Tianyi Square and the Laowaitan. Ethnographic fieldwork and documentary research were conducted as the major methods of data collection. The two urban redevelopment projects were undertaken by the Ningbo Urban Construction Investment Holdings Co., Ltd. (NBUCI), a local state-owned enterprise group specifically committed to strategic urban development projects and provision of municipal public utilities designated by the Ningbo Municipal Government. The Ningbo government significantly facilitated the two projects through high-profile promotional campaigns in an entrepreneurial manner. These phenomena represent state entrepreneurship of Ningbo’s Party-state agencies in Ningbo’s urban redevelopment.
In the governance of Tianyi Square and the Laowaitan, “territorialized Party-building” is undertaken in office buildings and business districts, and within private enterprises and new societal organizations. Organizational adaptation helps the CPC to consolidate its membership basis and expand its organizational control over the economic resources and talents in the non-state sector. The concept of “entrepreneurial Party-state” is thus proposed to highlight the “Party dimension” in China’s entrepreneurial urban governance.
And in the context of inter-district competition, territoriality has become central to authoritarian corporatist state-business intermediations and policy concertation, which is committed to forging the identity and promoting the interests of certain urban territories, and the subtle power struggle between the NBUCI on behalf of the Ningbo municipal authority and the district-level authority governing the territory of the Laowaitan area. The concept of “territorial corporatism” is thus proposed to articulate the territorial dimension in China’s changing state-business relations in China’s entrepreneurial urban governance.
This research provides new cases of state entrepreneurship, Party-state adaptation and state corporatism taking place in the domain of urban redevelopment and urban governance, which in turn lead to new theorization of the Chinese Party-state and China’s state-society relations at the local level in urban China. The directions for future research on Party-state adaptation and territorial corporatism in relation to urban governance in urban business districts are also identified, which necessitates comparative studies of more cases in different localities in urban China.published_or_final_version

Full textAbstract:
With rapid urbanization and population growth in urban areas, urban development is
necessary and urgent. However, with tight land supply from expropriating new
farmland, redeveloping urban villages at central urban area would be full of potential.
Basically, an urban village is the byproduct of rapid urbanization, with
collective-owned non-agricultural use land surrounded by a state-owned urban area.
Because of the particular land ownership structure in urban villages, conventional
urban redevelopment methods are not suitable for the redevelopment of urban
villages, public-private partnerships had been introduced into urban redevelopment
to integrate the power and resources of private sector into the process of urban
redevelopment with a legal contract, to form a collaboration between public and
private sections, and to share the profits and benefits. A study on such partnerships in
the redevelopment of urban villages could be instructive and enlightening for the
future redevelopment of rural non-agricultural land in China.
The major aim of the research is to discover the conditions under which partnerships
for the redevelopment of urban villages could be established in China. The
redevelopment of three urban villages in Shenzhen, namely the villages of Yunong,
Gangxia and Huanggang, were thoroughly studied. A research framework has been
established by examining the power relations of such partnerships and has been
tailored to the scenario of redevelopment of urban village in China. The partnership
synergy between local government, urban village communities and private
developers, and role conflicts of each participants have been analyzed by considering
the impact factors inherent in the institutional context of municipal government and
the cultural context of urban villages in Shenzhen. These factors affect the
composition, the process and the outcome of partnership in redevelopment of urban
villages.
The study found that because institutional support and land resource are exclusively
and irreplaceably provided by the local government and the urban village, local
government with systematic power is the primary partner who influences the
partnership in redevelopment of urban villages the most. The local government
arranges and executes the redevelopment timetable, decides the objective of
redevelopment and devises rules of redistributing redevelopment profits. Under some
conditions like better location, larger size and well-organization and efficient
leadership, the secondary dominator namely village community becomes more
important on the power balance of partnership. Private developer has no unique
advantage in the partnership and could only be the follower of other two partners.
Case studies from different cities with diversified institutional and cultural context are
expected to be included into the future research areas.published_or_final_version

Full textAbstract:
With rapid urbanization since the 1990s, many Chinese historic cities have
faced the dual challenges of regenerating dilapidated historic inner urban areas
and promoting local economic development. Rampant urban redevelopmentoriented
planning and practices have been undertaken in many places. While
bringing enormous economic returns, this trend also poses many threats to the
character of the historic cities.
Literature on urban regeneration shows that local communities should play
an active role in regenerating a place in addition to other key actors such as the
government and the private sectors. Local communities also play a critical role in
conserving the indigenous lives of historic residential districts. Social capital
enables local communities to act together to pursue shared objectives in the
community-based regeneration processes. Based on this theoretical premise, the
study seeks to examine the role of social capital in the regeneration of Chinese
historic cities.
This thesis aims to provide a historical and contextual understanding of the
evolution of urban regeneration in Chinese historic cities. The thesis also explores
the role of social capital in the current controversies surrounding urban
regeneration in transitional China. In the current mode of urban regeneration
governance in China, local governments often play a dominant role as both
redevelopment advocates and project managers. Private developers are actively
involved while local indigenous residents are often excluded from the
regeneration processes. Urban regeneration practices in Chinese historic cities are
often conducted through urban conservation-cum-redevelopment strategies to spur
local economic growth and improve the physical environment. Since the focus is
on the conservation of the physical environment, many local indigenous lives
have to be excluded and relocated to give way to local redevelopment projects.
The lack of community involvement in local regeneration processes severely
undermines the goals of comprehensive urban regeneration and integrated urban
conservation plans.
Xi’an, a typical Chinese historic city, has been chosen as the study site.
Two solid local case studies have produced the following major findings. In the
Drum Tower Muslim District, traditional Muslim lives and businesses have
sustained a vibrant local economy. Together with cohesive community
relationships, this thesis argues that the historic Muslim district can actually
sustain a self-regeneration process, given proper maintenance of the dilapidated
urban infrastructures by local governments. The question is an institutionalized
mechanism to facilitate this kind of regeneration. The implementation of the
government-led regeneration projects within the Sanxuejie Historic District,
where community relationships are weak with low level of social capital, was
more “efficient”. However, it also means that regeneration efforts were less
comprehensive and indigenous lives of the original neighborhoods were not
conserved.
To achieve the goals of comprehensive urban regeneration in historic cities,
this thesis maintains the following: (1) the conservation of indigenous lives and
local socio-cultural elements is important for local regeneration plans; (2) a strong
social capital contributes to the conservation of local indigenous lives by
facilitating community involvement in local urban regeneration processes; and (3)
an institutionalized community participatory mode of urban governance is
essential for a comprehensive regeneration plan at the local level.published_or_final_version

"Urban ruins: empowering the under privileged." 2009. http://library.cuhk.edu.hk/record=b5893922.
Full textAbstract:
Fung Tat Wai Ken."Architecture Department, Chinese University of Hong Kong, Master of Architecture Programme 2008-2009, design report."
Urban Ruins: Empowering the Underprivileged --- p.4-17
"This thesis is inspired by two social and economic issues: Urban Ruins and migrant workers. Here urban ruins refer to suspended or abandoned structures resulting from speculation failures caused by market and financial fluctuations. Through a comparison between these unoccupied and often unfinished structures and ""traditional"" ruins like those resulting from natural disasters, it is obvious that they share common characteristics and Urban Ruins are thus named. For example, they both consist of visible and invisible parts, though they represent different time and space."
Guangdong Region --- p.18-23
"Following the real estate boom in the 1990s, there were once more than 300 Urban Ruins in Guangdong Province. However in the past 10 years, most of the suspended projects have been resumed and completed by developers, this phenomenon has given rise to worries at the beginning of research that it might not be the right time to touch on this issue, yet the recent financial crisis has again proven the periodic nature of the issue that is worthwhile further investigation."
Shenzhen - Dongmen Building --- p.24-37
"Dongmen Building one of the remaining few existing Urban Ruins in Shenzhen urban area. It is a special case that the cause of its suspension is not only financial and market forces, the original developer has been cheated by other company, taking away all the capital that were invested into this building, the construction was then brought to a halt since the completion of the concrete structure more than 10 years ago. This is going to be the site of the intervention."
Shenzhen - A Transient City --- p.38-43
"Apart from the property market, Shenzhen has been growing exponentially since it was declared Special Economic Zone in 1979, plus its geographical advantage of its proximity to Hong Kong, it has been functioning as the hinterland to Hong Kong providing cheap products and services. The manufacturing industry and services sector flourished, attracting migrant workers from all over China. These migrant workers do not have a local hukou, meaning they are not registered residence in Shenzhen, they face problems of employment, accommodation and low wages. Making the migrant workers the underprivileged and over exploited group in the economy."
"According to a recent survey, there are as much as 100 million migrant workers in China, of which one tenth of them are working in the Guangdong Province. Migrant workers, together with associated Village in the City issue pose a rising social demographic problem to the authorities."
Program --- p.44-49
"Based on these two issues, Urban Ruins and migrant workers, a programmatic approach has been adopted. The proposed program is composed of 3 scales, firstly on a city wide scale responding to periodical market fluctuations that created Urban Ruins by taking the abandoned structure as a host for intervention. Secondly on a national-wide scale dealing with perennial population flow of migrant workers and tourists, providing temporary residence for migrant workers who are forced to stay in Shenzhen or those who just arrived in search for jobs. Thirdly on a more local scale, accommodating daily needs of public transport and recycling in the Dongmen commercial district."
Empowering the under-privileged and the over-exploited --- p.50-53
"Going back to the title of the thesis, how to empower the under-privileged? It could be achieved by using their own expertise, agricultural knowledge, by means of an urban farm. The urban farm ties up all the other previously mentioned programs, they work in a symbiotic relationship that the public transport interchange bring shoppers to the marketplace where the produces from the urban farm, while the kitchen waste collected from the commercial district can be treated at the recycling centre suppling organic fertiliser to the urban farm. The temporary residence is run on the financial support from the profit of the marketplace and also the hostel for tourists. This establishment could be a centre for new arrivals in Shenzhen, providing vocational training of hydroponic agriculture and accommodation while they can look for other jobs."
Hydroponics and Vertical Farming --- p.54-57
"The conventional type of farm is not feasible on the tower due the required soil depth cannot be achieved on the origi- nal structure. Hydroponic farming is introduced to produce high economic value crops like fruits and flowers. Moreover, the skills required by hydroponic farming can be acquired by the migrant workers as vocational training."
Parasitic Approach --- p.58-64
"In order to maintain a ruin-like quality of the existing structure to create a""scar of greed"" in the city, the design approach would partly retain the existing appearance and introduce the new programs as parasitic structures. Three parasitic operations: Attachment, Add-on and Intrusion were identified from a study of parasitic structures. In the preliminary design proposal, the growing area is applied an attachment on the southern facades with other programs such as residence punching through into the existing structure as intrusions."

"中国新生代乡-城流动人口的转成人与成人身份认同: 基于深圳市的探索性研究 = Transition to adulthood and adult identity among Chinese young-generation rural-urban migrants : an exploratory research in Shenzhen." 2016. http://library.cuhk.edu.hk/record=b6116443.
Full textAbstract:
在以个人主义为文化核心的西方发达国家，关于个体转成人这一生命历程的研究早在二十世纪中期就已兴起。但在以家庭和关系为主导文化的中国，关于个体转成人的研究却非常少见。另一方面，在全球范围内流动人口年轻化的趋势下，已经有一些研究开始关注流动人口的转成人生命历程。但在拥有大量新生代乡-城流动人口的中国，却鲜有研究关注这一群体所处的转成人生命历程。为了弥补这些空白，本研究将探索中国新生代乡-城流动人口的转成人及其成人身份认同。作为质性研究，研究者通过目的抽样的方法获得19位来自深圳市的、具有不同人口学特征的访谈对象。通过对被访者外出、工作以及婚恋经历进行深入访谈与分析，本研究获得了非常重要的发现。首先，新生代乡-城流动人口的转成人呈现非阶段、非线性、漫长、漂泊以及高风险的特征。第二，这一群体的转成人既非个体被各样社会环境单方面影响和形塑的过程，也非具有统一的年龄界限和发展任务的发展阶段，而是能动的个体与社会环境不断互动的过程，体现出丰富的社会、文化与个体多样性。第三，在成人身份认同方面，这一群体并非单纯地将年龄的增长与社会角色的转变看作其转成人的重要标志，而是更看重自身所具备的应对城市生存挑战和满足农村家庭伦理要求的能力，呈现生存取向与伦理取向相结合的特点。
本研究一方面挑战了成年初显期这一普遍运用于西方个体转成人研究中的新兴概念，另一方面，也挑战了传统的生命发展阶段视角对个体成长过程的线性的、阶段化以及标准化的理解。更重要的，本研究为中国本土关于新生代乡-城流动人口的研究提出了新的、整合的研究视角，即整合的生命历程视角。最后，研究者提倡关于新生代乡-城流动人口的社会政策与服务的设计应该具有整合的生命历程的视角，因为个体在转成人过程中的每一个选择都会影响其整个生命历程的福祉。更具体的，研究者从家庭、教育、就业、草根劳工NGO、籍制度、与社会福利制度等方面提出关于促进其转成人过程顺利进行、提高其社会福利的政策建议。
Research on individuals’ transition to adulthood has emerged from the mid-20th century in Western developed countries with individualism as the core of culture. However, in China with family and relationship as the dominated culture, research regarding individuals’ transition to adulthood is rare. On the other side, research about the transition to adulthood among young migrants has sprung up under the context of global mobility in which young migrants become the major drive. However, there is little research focusing on the very transition-to-adulthood life course among young-generation rural-urban migrants in China while this age group has gradually dominated the whole rural-urban migrants. This study is to fill these research gaps.
This research explored the transition-to-adulthood experience and adult identity among Chinese young-generation rural-urban migrants. As a qualitative research, the researcher obtained 19 participants in Shenzhen by purposive sampling. Through two rounds of face-to-face in-depth interview about their life experience in migration, work and intimate relationship, this research found that the transition-to-adulthood trajectory of the participants is neither linear nor progressive; it is rather prolonged, recursive, floating, and fused with instability, contingency and risks.
Second, this research indicated that the transition to adulthood among the participants is neither a one-way process in which the individuals were passively influenced by social environment, nor a normative life stage with unified age ranks and developmental tasks. Rather, it is an interactive process between individual agency and different social environment and a trajectory with social, cultural and individual diversities.
Third, with regard to the formation of adult identity, the participants did not consider the age and role transition as the main markers of becoming adults. On the contrary, they took high regard of the ability and responsibility in coping with survival environment in cities and fulfilling the ethic requirements and expectations from their families. In other words, their adult identity formation is both survival-oriented and ethic-oriented which was molded by their status as rural-urban migrants.
This research challenged the concept of emerging adulthood which has been widely used in transition to adulthood research in western society. This research also challenged the traditional life stage perspective which understood individual’s life development as linear and normalized stages. More important, this research introduced a brand-new and more integrated research perspective ─ integrated life course - to research on young-generation rural-urban migrants in China.
This research advocated that social polices targeting on the young-generation rural-urban migrants in China should be designed in integrated life course perspective because each life choice during transition to adulthood will influence the participants’ wellbeing. More specifically, the researcher proposed some key advice on policies and services in the areas of family, education and labor market, for supporting the participants’ transition to adulthood and enhancing their social welfare.
