By 2030, China's cities will be home to 1 billion people - one in every eight people on earth. What kind of lives will China's urban billion lead? And what will China's cities be like?
Over the past thirty years, China's urban population expanded by 500 million people, and is on track to swell by a further 300 million by 2030. Hundreds of millions of these new urban residents are rural migrants, who lead second-class lives without access to urban benefits. Even those lucky citizens who live in modern tower blocks must put up with clogged roads, polluted skies and cityscapes of unremitting ugliness. The rapid expansion of urban China is astonishing, but new policies are urgently needed to create healthier cities.
Combining on-the-ground reportage and up-to-date research, this pivotal book explains why China has failed to reap many of the economic and social benefits of urbanization, and suggests how these problems can be resolved. If its leaders get urbanization right, China will surpass the United States and cement its position as the world's largest economy. But if they get it wrong, China could spend the next twenty years languishing in middle-income torpor, its cities pockmarked by giant slums.

评分读一个中国通的老外写的中国,写中国的城市化,总是感觉比看国内的新闻更加贴近现实,更入木三分。
评分地票制度,城市消费者的转变。语言平实,消失的“我”。
评分很可以看,挺好的。
评分建议以后作者都在封面上贴个“普及类”的标签啊...
85页失去家园的农民没有一个人知道重庆的所谓“地票制度”。也不知道在家被拍卖了多少钱。 先不看农民,看城市: 按斯蒂芬-格林(Stephen Green)的说法,在中国活一年,相当于美国四年。生活节奏奇快,我们不是这样的感受吗?P96“道路的扩张是为了日益增多的汽车。”在绍兴,...
评分中国十亿城民 社会科普调研报告。其实有点好奇作者Tom Miller是如何数据的调查与收集的。译者李雪顺曾译著《寻路中国》及《江城》等书。 该书良心上可等同于柴静的微电影《穹顶之下》。描述也不错。个人对于受访者调查以及过多描写进城务工人员的困境,和多次的内地城市困境...
评分2011年底,我在游学七年后回到北京,期待过上安居乐业的生活。然而,我却在随后三年里五次搬家,并经历了三件与房产有关的大事。一是大舅一家在陕西县城的田地遭当地政府低价强征。年届七十的大舅率众抗争,被关进看守所,他只好签字卖地。二是我所在的北京师范大学在...

评分这本书一年前看了第一章,一直闲置,中秋假期一口气读完。 这个歪果仁作者对中国城市化/土地制度/独特而出众的政府组织能力都有非常深刻的理解。 14年的书就预测到了户籍制度改革(开放中小城市落户)、土地制度改革(允许集体土地直接入世) 作者对中国的迷惑来自于没看懂:几千年...
