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。

P144 美国哥伦比亚广播公司(CBS)的调查类新闻节目《60分钟》,在2013年3月也做过一期被广为传看的的节目。解说词说,该节目记录的是郑州郑东新区“延绵数公里、数公里、数公里的空置公寓楼”。 欣喜的是,只有傻子才会完全相信电视画面。郑东新区既不是想象中的那么糟糕,也...

评分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,...
评分现今好像很流行外国人看中国这样的题材,当然这是好事,至少表明我们愿意接受批评和建议。作者是记者,与《江城》的作者何伟选择以小城居民为切入点不同的是,米勒选择了宏观的视角,从政策层面去理解中国的城镇化。城镇化无疑是趋势。如何高效平稳落地。是举国关注和亟...
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...
