Shanghai Narrative

A Socio-spatial Perspective

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book focuses on urban development in Shanghai over the past four decades, which is composed of two major development processes-the development of new spaces and the renewal of old ones. Seeking to bring the concept of space back into social analysis, the book explores changes affecting communities, interpersonal interactions, lifestyles and social mindsets in Shanghai from a spatial perspective. What's more, all these social themes are presented using a narrative of spatial representation and spatialization.
The book combines both academic and documentary-style contributions. It also provides cutting-edge research on the most representative case in Shanghai. As the book demonstrates, the story of social spaces in Shanghai is more than a combination of social analysis and spatial analysis but also involves historical analysis and contemporary narrative.
