Описание:

Reform has long been a consensus in China, but after decades of rapid growth, there still remain numerous intractable barriers and institutional constrains to solve, and new problems are continuously emerging, all these hinder the implementation of China’s deepening reform. How can China break out of those encirclements? This book is a collection of the author’s articles on China’s experience of social and economic reform which proposed that new momentum is needed for an overall deepening of reform. Based on his years of research on real-world economics in rural land reform, state-owned enterprises reform, urbanization and urban governance, technology innovation and industrial upgrading, the author introduces the concepts of state and market, firm and law, property rights and contracts, transaction cost and system cost, comparative advantage and competitive advantage etc. Whether the momentum of reform can penetrate multiple levels of complex networks, from the top to grassroots and local to central, is a decisive factor in China’s deepening reform. This penetrating power has the connotation of the comprehensive decision making, technological innovation, and optimism in the face of uncertainty. Reform seeks to break, while innovation seeks to create. The future is better than one thinks.

Описание: Generally, textbooks on urban geography and urban planning are based on ideas laid out in the west and are unable to explicitly connect those ideas to the way Indians experience their cities. This gap is addressed in this book by reconceptualising Indian urban studies. The reconceptualisation is done by dissecting western theories, concepts, paradigms, and principles and practices, and placing them alongside how Indians experience their urban landscapes. Such a comparative analysis allows readers to break from their past understandings of the structure and dynamics of Indian cities as well as enable researchers to make exploratory hypotheses. The book will empower students to craft and implement new approaches, unconstrained by orthodox theories and biases.

Primarily intended for the students of Geography and Urban Planning, the book covers the evolution of urban structures and dynamics of settlements in India, largely after India's Independence. There are seven chapters in the book. First three chapters describe and explain the evolution of Indian settlements up to the present. The next four chapters focus on regions, urban planning, urban governance and the social landscape of Indian cities. Each chapter ends with a set of short and long answer questions.

Key Features

• Large coverage of the syllabi prescribed in Indian academic institutions
• Strategically organised text of each chapter for the ease of learning
• Abundant case studies in each chapter
• Chapter-end short-answer, long-answer and fill-in the blank type exercise problems

Описание: This book discusses that disasters, whether natural or man-made, are essentially a human phenomenon. When a city becomes gridlocked and its resources depleted, the collective resilience of those who remain on the ground becomes critical to its immediate survival and recovery.

Описание: There has been a great deal of restructuring of rural places and communities under globalisation, highlighting the interaction of local and global actors to produce new hybrid socio-economic relations. Recent research highlights the heterogeneity of globalisation in which rural places are different to each other, but also different to how they were in the past. Bringing together an interdisciplinary team of academics, and comparative case studies from Europe (West and East) and Asia, this book explores and discusses opportunities and challenges associated with globalising rural places, and identifies possibilities for policy and practical intervention by rural development actors. Special attention is paid to multi-scalar processes through which rural places are reshaped through globalisation. Taking a geographical approach, the book produces new critical work on the interdependence between globalisation and rural spaces. It is organised into five sections: Part I focuses on ’Global-Rural Linkages’ showing the multifaceted interrelation between actors at different geographical scale and demonstrating that globalisation is not only external to rural spaces. Part II on ’Rural Entrepreneurship and Labour Markets’ explores the potential of business start-ups in rural spaces which are not only necessity driven. Part III ’Rural Innovation and Learning’ shows that rural places are also places for innovation and learning. Part IV on ’Rural Policies and Governance’ argues that regional policies for rural places should promote side activities to maintain social capital and that regional policy should take a more integrative perspective between urban and rural spaces in order to explore complementary development paths. The concluding chapter ’New Approaches to Rural Spaces’ discusses new approaches to globalising rural places in relation to the preceding chapters published in this book.
