dc.description.abstract | As the vital city in south China since the ancient time, Guangzhou has been losing its leading role among the rising neighboring cities, especially, Hong Kong and Shenzhen, since the late 1980s, with the overloaded infrastructure and deteriorating urban environment in its old inner city. Fortunately, with the new expansion of the administrative area in 2000, the municipality of Guangzhou considered it as an unprecedented great opportunity for future development to solve a series of alarming urban problems. Thus, for the first time, strategic planning was introduced to China by the municipality for providing more convincing and scientific basis towards better urban future, as the first attempt in China. Differed from traditional Chinese planning practices, which rigidly and dogmatically focused on future blueprints, the strategic planning of Guangzhou proceeded from analyzing practical challenges and opportunities towards establishing reasonable developing objectives and proposing corresponding strategies. Moreover, it was pioneering that the municipality invited five planning institutions for proposals, among which, the paper focuses on the one proposed by China Academy of Urban Planning & Design from its theoretical basis to problems’ defining and analyzing process, as well as planning results. | |
