An Investigation on the Urban Form Transformations in Contemporary Chinese Cities

Abstract:

The paper investigates the urban form transformations of Chinese cities in the past three decades. Through literature review, it explores the forces of these urban form transformations. The research identifies that despite the substantial body of literature that sheds light on China’s economic reform and urban development, understanding of the development process remains vague.
