| dc.description.abstract | Globalisation – if looked at as a platform – facilitates experts to exchange knowledge, ideas, and approaches, and cooperate cross-culturally. On the basis of a globalized world, it seems everyone can ‘read’ certain cities independently on their specific location, since these specific cities and urban agglomerations are even labeled as global cities. At a global scale, borders seem to continuously vanish, and the world gets ‘smaller’ and larger at the same time, since it provides us with many more opportunities and chances. Planning concepts, urban design approaches, and architecture have joined the international trade goods, which are traded globally according to the market and the demand. Traditionally, the exchange happens from the more developed to the less developed regions and countries. China has been on a search for new planning approaches since the rapid urbanization started in the 1980s with the economic growth based on the politics of Deng Xiaoping1. In the first phase of urbanization (ca. the first ten to fifteen years) these planning approaches have been found in western concepts.2 It seemed there was little time and experience to look at the matter critically; it was rather the time for great experimentation on an urban scale never witnessed before. | |
