Regional Economic Development in China in 2020
This book focuses on China's regional economic development, particularly of urban clusters such as those around Beijing and Shanghai as well as in the Pearl River Delta. This book includes an extensive analysis of how Chinese urbanism is happening in practice, whether in the “Belt and Road”, the Yangtze River Economic Belt, the coordinated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, or with regards to the synergistic effects of high-speed rail. This book comprehensively and systematically expounds the status quo, significance, and construction of the future pattern of China's regional coordinated development practice.
