Description - Beyond Urbanism by Peter Herrle

Large urban agglomerations have emerged over the past decades, and, in some cases, entire rural regions have been urbanized in less than a decade. These trends not only reflect an unprecedented quantitative dimension of urbanization, but also the emergence of new urban forms - 'beyond urbanism' - thus posing new challenges to regional planners, politicians, and urban governance actors. This book examines the process of urbanization in villages along China's Pearl River Delta. (Series: HABITAT - INTERNATIONAL: Articles on International Urban Development / HABITAT - INTERNATIONAL: Schriften zur internationalen Stadtentwicklung - Vol. 20) [Subject: Sociology, Asian Studies, Chinese Studies, Urban Studies]
