Regional focus: China
My reasearch and teaching has been focused on the political economy of development in East Asia, especially China. I am interested in the question of power and space. My first book, Making Captialism in China: The Taiwan Connection, focuses on the role of culture in inter-regional capital flows. In my second book, The Great Urban Tansformation: Politics of Land and Property in China, I examine the issue of territorality. I look at how the transformation of the state and the society shapes and is shaped by land battles in Chinese cities and villages. My co-edited book, Reclaiming Chinese Society, looks at China’s emerging social activism in the struggles over distribution, recognition, and representation. My current project concerns the cultural and environmental politics in Northwestern China. For my research I draw inspiration from ethnographical work: in-depth interviews and participatory observation with a reflexive perspective. I believe that theorizing starts from muddy realities. It is a process of open dialogues and self-reflections, of which the historical and the geographical, the institutional and the emotional are all indispensable parts.

Product Description
As China is transformed, relations between society, the state, and the city have become central. The Great Urban Transformation investigates what is happening in cities, the urban edges, and the rural fringe in order to explain these relations. In the inner city of major metropolitan centers, municipal governments battle high-ranking state agencies to secure land rents from redevelopment projects, while residents mobilize to assert property and residential rights. At the urban edge, as metropolitan governments seek to extend control over their rural hinterland through massive-scale development projects, villagers strategize to profit from the encroaching property market. At the rural fringe, township leaders become brokers of power and property between the state bureaucracy and villages, while large numbers of peasants are dispossessed, dispersed, and deterritorialized, and their mobilizational capacity is consequently undermined.
The Great Urban Transformation explores these issues, and provides an integrated analysis of the city and the countryside, elite politics and grassroots activism, legal-economic and socio-political issues of property rights, and the role of the state and the market in the property market.

She is the author of Making Capitalism in China: The Taiwan Connection (1998, Oxford University Press) and co-editor (with Ching Kwan Lee) of Reclaiming Chinese Society: Politics of Redistribution, Recognition, and Representation (Forthcoming, Routledge).
以国家-市民社会为横轴,中央到乡村的垂直政权为纵轴,为理解后毛时代的土地政治提供一个基本框架。
评分以地理观点出发观察城市和乡村政治及地方政府与社会互动,加入了空间维度,可作为考察中国地方政治的一个完整的空间框架。城市从中心向外延展的过程,亦是以土地权益和认同为核心、各层面政府和社会成员互动的过程。核心地域,地方政府和直属国企既由于地权支配而存在张力,又在城市化主义的指引下共同推进空间拓展,尤其地方政府逐步从产值/技术为先的工业主义转向地价/生活模式优先的城市化主义,以地产发展为先导,拓展政治权力。相对地,城市中对改革前被剥夺房产的诉求及改革后城市化拆迁中的利益和权利诉求,衍生出两种不同的公民地域抗争。乡村故事则较为复杂,与城市交接的乡村以地权为筹码同急欲城市化的核心讨价还价,或干脆形成城中村两头获利,偏远乡村形成公司式组织利用地权获取收益(小产权房、村办产业和企业等),游离于城市化之外。
评分a comprehensive overview of the land-development related urban politics; rifts between urban governance and rural authorities.
评分重新mark;最初给的是四星,现在要给到五星。空间类型学?地理类型学?总之是种类型学~anyway,能看到各路学界大佬的影子,也能看到各种非学界大佬的影子。不过毕竟地理学出身吧,槽我就不吐了,也没啥可吐的...遥想当年的太原,当年的昆明,当年的苏州,各种历历在目呃~
评分关于中国城市化中的空间构建及其动力学的开创性作品。书中的材料或许被很多人无数次用过,但能够以成熟的理论和深刻的洞见(territorial power v. civic territoriality)将其打通者,少之又少。按照邢幼田的说法,研究早在1996年就已萌芽,直到2007年才告一段落。11年的时间浓缩到一本200多页的书中,比起其他稀释过度的作品,真可称得上学界良心。于我而言,本书对某些问题的阐发,比如“领域权力”的分权(decentralization of territorial power),以及制度对“公民领域性”(civic territoriality)影响等,值得反复阅读和思考。
