Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1949 to today, China has experienced dramatic changes in its economy and urban development. This book examines these changes and looks at one city, Shenzhen, in detail. The performance and behavior of a fledgling property market in the transitional economy are analyzed in the backdrop of real estate commodification and marketization. Students and researchers in urban geography, urban planning, economics, business, and real estate will find this monograph lucid and original. Two distinctive periods divide the last fifty years of development in China. The period 1949 to 1978 was dominated by central planning. After 1978, however, economic reforms brought a new property market to many of China's cities. The economic surge of this period has transformed these cities and helped create new metropolises. The special economic zone of Shenzhen grew from what was, until 1980, a landscape predominantly made up of rice paddy fields and traditional villages. By 1995, the population of the city grew to more than two and a half million. Two modes of land provision are identified as the main contributors to Shenzhen's urban development process, which is also echoed in other Chinese cities. Incremental urban land reforms are elaborated within a broad framework of institutional change, while marketization has brought many changes to Chinese society. Continued urban reform toward a market economy seems now irreversible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China’s economy has been transforming rapidly over the last 25 years. As a result, Chinese conurbations have changed remarkably, with cities expanding both vertically and horizontally, and the physical environment acting as a medium for unprecedented urbanization. This has provided vast opportunities for investors, real estate developers, and service companies, but also presents huge challenges—as traditional city spaces have been reconfigured, environmental risks and the volatility of real estate markets increased. However, as engagement with China is becoming strategically important for many, forming a synthesized lens through which to read China across the vicissitudes of its real estate sector bears historic significance. By offering an insightful framework and structure for understanding China’s variegated real estate dynamics, players, and markets, Understanding China’s Real Estate Markets codifies the principles and practices of real estate development, finance, and investment in China and builds foundations for future academic research and practical knowledge in shaping and engaging the urban environment within China and beyond.
Download or read book Privatization of Urban Land in Shanghai written by Ling Hin Li and published by Hong Kong University Press. This book was released on 1996-10-01 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides researchers and practitioners with an informed study of the land and real estate market in Shanghai. While, there are a number of well-researched books devoted to studying the economic consequences of China's transition to the capitalist market system, few are written about the country's privatization of land control. This book fills the gap by examining the land market mechanism arising from the land use rights reform in Shanghai, which has important implications for real estate development in China as a whole.
Download or read book China s Urban Construction Land Development written by Tao Liu and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-10-16 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the nature and internal dynamics of China’s urban construction land (UCL) development, drawing insights from the recently developed theory of regional political ecology. Based on the author’s original research, it identifies two different types of UCL development in China, namely top-down, formal development in the legal and regulated domain, and spontaneous and informal, bottom-up development in the semi-legal, poorly regulated gray domain. Presenting a systematic analysis and comparison, it reveals a scale and speed of informal land development no less significant than that of formal land development, although informal land development tends to be scattered, pervasive, difficult to track, and largely overlooked in research and policy formation. Contrary to the popular perception of the peasantry as passive victims of land development, this book uncovers an intriguing dynamic in which the peasantry has played an increasingly (pro)active role in developing their rural land for urban uses in informal markets. Further, based on an investigation of UCL development in Beijing and Shenzhen, it shows an interesting trajectory in which the uneven growth and utilization of UCL are contingent upon the various developmental milieus in different places. China’s land institutions, based on an urban–rural dual land system, are not conducive to the ultimate goal of saving and efficiently utilizing land. Accordingly, an urban–rural integrated land market and management system is highly advisable. The theoretical and empirical enquiry presented challenges the perceived notion of China’s UCL development as the outcome of market demand and state supply. Further, it argues for an inclusive treatment of the informality that has characterized urbanization in many developing countries, and for a reassessment of the role played by the peasantry in land-based urbanization.

This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inner-city areas in China have undergone massive transformations since the adoption of economic reforms in the 1980s. In the absence of an effective property market for over 30 years, a series of market-oriented transformations were introduced in China starting in the 1980s to stimulate more economically intensive urban land usage. Prompted by the commodification of housing, the paid transfer of land-use rights, and the release of SOE land for redevelopment, urban regeneration in Chinese inner cities has shifted dramatically from the former state-led pattern, characterized by strong welfare provisions during the era of the planned economy, to a more market-oriented approach. The processes leading to the regeneration of diverse forms of urban land did not happen simultaneously, but rather more analogous to a spiral full of conflicts and compromises by different actors, accompanied by several substantial alterations to urban regeneration regulations.At the core of studies of the patterns and forces of China's contemporary urban regeneration dynamics are property rights, which are structured by newly initiated institutions. Considering the evolving nature of institutions and their structuring of the property rights over urban land, this study adopts the concept of a 'property-rights regime in transition' to discuss how different actors were recruited to participate in and interact with each other promote different phases of urban regeneration in China. In broader theoretical terms, a 'property-rights regime in transition' identifies a feasible logic for urban regeneration in China, whereby bundles of operational-level property rights would be continuously but gradually reassigned from one actor to another to promote urban regeneration, allowing the old organizations to slowly fade out to avoid resistance from existing land users and keep social stability. The right to redevelop would be assigned to those in the strongest position to promote urban regeneration.

Download or read book Urban Development in Post Reform China written by Fulong Wu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-12-05 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radically reoriented under market reform, Chinese cities present both the landscapes of the First and Third World, and are increasingly playing a critical role in the country’s economic development. Yet, radical marketization co-exists with the ever-presence of state control. Exploring the interaction of China’s market development, state regulation and the resulting transformation and creation of new urban spaces, this innovative, key book provides the first integrated treatment of China’s urban development in the dynamic market transition. Focusing on land and housing development, the authors, all renowned authorities in this field, show how the market has been ‘created’ under post-reform urban conditions, and examine ‘the state in action’, highlighting how changing urban governance towards local entrepreneurial state facilitates market formation. A significant, original contribution, they highlight the key actors and their institutional contexts. China has been very successful in using urban land development as an economic growth engine, and here the authors investigate complex interactions between the market and state in creating this new urbanism. Taking a unique perspective, they marshal original ideas and empirical work based on field studies and collaborative work with colleagues in China.
Download or read book Institutionalization of State Policy written by Miao Zhang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-06-10 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using fresh evidence and a novel methodological framework, this book sheds light on how institutions have driven economic reform in China's urban housing sector. The book systematically analyzes the developmental role of the state in China, with rich empirical evidence to show how decentralization has brought about significant participation by the different levels of government with the central, provincial and municipal governments focusing on initiation, intermediation and implementation roles respectively. Despite many Western analysts claiming that it is single complex superstructure, the institutionalization of governance structures in China following reforms has taken place through strong coordination between governments at different levels to meet targeted plans. Although China still has a long way to go to before it can be considered developed, this book elaborates on how the country offers a unique alternative for other states seeking to develop by striking a balance between capitalist and socialist instruments.

Abstract: China's phenomenal urbanization in recent decades has been characterized by not only a rapid growth of its urban population but also a massive expansion and development of its Urban Construction Land (hereafter UCL). The existing literature on China's urbanization is preoccupied by concerns over the growth of the urban population and rural-urban migration. Little work has been done to document and explain the growth dynamics of China's UCL. This thesis makes an original and significant effort to fill the gap existing in the studies of China's urbanization. Development of China's UCL is described in the existing literature as a combined outcome of the increasing market demand of the urban economy and the popular land-centered strategy practiced by the local states. With few exceptions, the peasantry as original land owners were either neglected or treated as passive victims in the process of UCL development. Drawing insights from the recently developed theory of regional political ecology, this thesis examines the nature and internal dynamics of China's UCL development. My original research has identified two different types of UCL development in China, namely formal development in the legal and regulated domain top down and informal development in the semi-legal, poorly regulated, and grey domain spontaneously bottom-up. My systematic analysis and comparison have found a scale and speed of informal land development no less significant than that of formal land development although informal land development tends to be scattered, pervasive, difficult to track, and usually overlooked in research and policy formation. Contrary to the popular perception of the peasantry as passive victims of land development, this thesis has revealed an intriguing dynamic in which the peasantry has played an increasingly (pro)active in developing their rural land for urban uses in informal markets. My further investigation of UCL development in Beijing and Shenzhen has uncovered an interesting trajectory in which the uneven growth and utilization of UCL are contingent upon the different developmental milieus existing in different places. UCL in Shenzhen is characterized by high rapidity, efficiency, a stronger land market, better-organized peasantry, and relatively weak state intervention. By contrast, the development of UCL in Beijing under strong state controls with poorly organized peasantry is dominated by the formal track with low efficiency. Ironically, the central state's policy objective of efficient land utilization has failed in Beijing where central land policies were well implemented but has been better achieved in Shenzhen where UCL is developed with limited intervention of central policies. China's land institutions based on an urban-rural dual land system are contradictory to the ultimate goal of land saving and efficient utilization. An urban-rural integrated land market and management system is thus highly recommended. The theoretical and empirical enquiry in this thesis challenges the perceived notion of China's UCL development as the outcome of market demand and state supply. My study of UCL development in China has called for an inclusive treatment of the informality that has characterized urbanization of many developing countries and a reassessment of the role played by the peasantry in land-based urbanization.

Download or read book Urban Development in China under the Institution of Land Rights written by Jieming Zhu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How have the development and redevelopment of China’s cities since the early 1950s transformed the settlements and fortunes of a fifth of the world’s population? Rapid urbanization since the 1980s has changed the nation from a rural society to an urban one, marking it as one of the most significant transformations in history. As a country with severe land scarcity, land resources are intensively contested for during urbanization under the new regime of marketization. This book focuses on the impact of the institution of land rights that have transitioned from private ownership to socialist state ownership, and subsequently to public land leasing in the urban domain, and to collective ownership in rural areas. In the context of defining the relationship between the state and the market, the gradualist transition of land rights gives rise to intriguing processes of place-making. The elaboration of these processes will engage several revealing conceptual notions: land as a means of production, land commodification, ambiguous land rights, incomplete land rights, trading land use rights for land development rights, institutional uncertainty, land rent seeking and dissipating, local developmental state, danwei-enterprises, and more. The newly created landed interests are embedded intricately within the urban spatial structure. This book would especially be of interest to scholars interested in developmental economics, urban planning, geography, public policies, public management, and sociology, and also practitioners focusing on development and planning.
Download or read book International Housing Market Experience and Implications for China written by Rebecca L. H. Chiu and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2019-03-18 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent rapid housing market expansion in China is presenting new challenges for policy makers, planners, business people, and citizens. Now that housing in middle-income China is driven by consumer choices and is no longer dominated by state policy decisions, housing policy issues in Chinese cities are becoming increasingly similar to those encountered in other global housing markets. With soaring prices and imbalances in housing supply favoring high income groups and housing demand driven by rising inequality in household incomes, many middle and lower-income households face worsening choices in terms of the quality and location of their housing as well as greater financial difficulties, which together can have negative implications for standards of public health. This book examines the impact of these changes on the general population, as well as on aspiring homeowners and developers. The contributors look at the effect on the widening of wealth gaps, slower economic growth, and threats to political and social stability. Though focusing on China, the editors also present discussions of specific policy design challenges encountered in Australia, Japan, Korea, the Netherlands, the Nordic countries, Singapore, Taiwan, the UK, and the US. This book would be of interest to housing policy makers, as well as academics who are studying the social and political effects of the Chinese housing market.
