This multidisciplinary volume, the first of its kind, presents an account of China’s contemporary transformation via one of its most important yet overlooked cities: Shenzhen, located just north of Hong Kong. In recent decades, Shenzhen has transformed from an experimental site for economic reform into a dominant city at the crossroads of the global economy. The first of China’s special economic zones, Shenzhen is today a UNESCO City of Design and the hub of China’s emerging technology industries.
Bringing China studies into dialogue with urban studies, the contributors explore how the post-Mao Chinese appropriation of capitalist logic led to a dramatic remodeling of the Chinese city and collective life in China today. These essays show how urban villages and informal institutions enabled social transformation through cases of public health, labor, architecture, gender, politics, education, and more. Offering scholars and general readers alike an unprecedented look at one of the world’s most dynamic metropolises, this collective history uses the urban case study to explore critical problems and possibilities relevant for modern-day China and beyond.

難得的有關深圳的研究,值得一讀。思路很開闊。
評分讓人意外的一本書,對這座城市的瞭解又多瞭一些
評分讀到瞭不少政治野史
評分Covid後讀深圳公共衛生係統那一章彆有意思
評分一直很感興趣的,這個城市的發展史,小眾的史記。深圳不是一個沒有曆史的城市,這裏的曆史更近,變化萬韆。
